does it have a speakerphone that works well?

Yes it does, and I have updated the review to include mention of it. Thanks.

do you talk to the "screen" portion, or do you talk to the "back" of the phone. some preliminary rumors were that if you held the i700 to your head the way you would a traditional phone, you held the "back" of it to your face and talked to the back of the phone... which is it???

does it come with stereo headphones and an earbuc/mic or is it in one unit.

I have the 2.5mm headphones from my 1910. I'm curious about what you do when you are jogging/exercising...and listening to your mp3s on the ppc, when the phone rings....do you have a mic built into the headphones or not? does it beep, ring, etc in the headphones to tell you that there is a call? can you click over take the calland go back to music???

Those questions have been addressed in the review, but I'll quickly answer them again. When using the i700 as a handset it's held up to the head screen facing you. It comes with stereo earbuds with built-in microphone, volume control, and send/end button. If you're playing an mp3 it will automatically be muted when the phone rings.

can you get email automatically or do you have to manually dial in to check? I have email on my personal account and at work. can you setup the device to go online and grab emails? or will it only do that ona sync?

looks like a cool unit.

You have to manually connect to chek it as the data connection is not always on, however it is possible through Verizon to set up e-mail alerts so you can be notified when new mail is waiting.

Is is one cool unit!
