Pocket-Lint didn't seem too impressed:

But some of these remarks seem unfounded.

Seen this phone in store for the 1st time last weekend and was actually shocked at how small and light it felt in my hand.
This must be the 'human curvature' in action - it really did feel half the size and weight of Satio.
It seem like I have found my next phone - and my first smartphone ever. Since I own my W890i (don't laugh at me) I'm looking for something slim and light. The W890 is just 80 gr... now the Vivaz comes with 97 gr. Well thats about 20% more, but still below the 100gr border I have set as my personal limit. It's only 13mm in height, compared to the 10mm of the W890 thats also 20% more.
But all this features in such a small and light device  ! Finalla! That's what the Vivaz is about - the feature set might not be absolutely top-notch. I'm sure this wasn't the intention anyway. It's the first smartphone that's really slim and light, including a 8mp cam, Hires video, WiFi etc. etc. Or am I mistaken here? |

highly likely that review was of a proto.
GSMArena on the other hand seems to favour the handset. apart from the OS

Does anyone know if VivazPRO has an onscreen keyboard like Satio or is it only slide out keys? |

popped into Vodafone shop earlier, SE have said they're having some software issues with the Vivaz, but hope to be bringing it out next week.
So that'll be next year then  |

what issues? the phone is already available. on ebay now too.
the issues probably lie within the voda software branding!

GSM-Arena listing it as available now...I only see Welectronics ($599.99) and Omnio from the UK listed so far.
I don't trust those early Ebay listings...

Slide out keyboard and since it's a touch base phone it should equipped with onscreen keyboard as well
I on the other hand like a bit weighted phone too light feel like toy or not worth it  and im not fond of the design of the Vivaz just me i guess

True!
When you look at the spec sheet and then feel the phone in your hand its amazing how they've packed so much tech into such a small package.
S60 for me is too quirky. Now Vivaz + Android? Mindblowing!

Handtec UK online has it for 294gbp (excluding vat) and they ship worldwide and offer paypal! you uk guys of course have to pay vat
equates to $485aud at todays exchange rates, minus delivery. damn cheap! from a trusted seller on ebay aus its $600aud'ish.
wondering, should i get one to try while i wait for the x10 to drop a little in price, and sell, or just wait for x10. lol
