Advantages: Slim - Will fit anywhere! Disadvantages: Battery runs down quick!
Style
The phone is a great shape it can easily be kept in you pocket and its hardly noticeable. The buttons are flat which at first took abit of getting used to as all my previous phones had buttons that stuck out but they are really easy to use and I find they last alot longer too with regular buttons after a while and alot of use they start to become quite difficult to use. Also with all my other phones the numbers on the buttons used to wear away, that doesnt happen with the V3.
Features
The V3 does have alot of features however i think it could have more. Its got bluetooth,web access,everything you could to with your photos, video filming, games - billiards, golf and skipping stones and also all your basic features. I think next time though I will buy a phone with a fm radio or mp3 player as that comes in very handy ...

Advantages: Easy to use and some nice features Disadvantages: Battry life is not the best
Over view
I have had my V3 for 22 months now and it has been very reliable, it feels nice to hold and use and easy to fit in pocketswithout bulging. It is light and a nice colour (grey metal). The keyboard feels nice and is nicely illuminated when using. The display has a nice viewing area. I love my V3, it is still fashionable and up to date
Keypad
I love the keys on the V3 they are stylish and easy to use, your finger glides easily over them and easy to press the keys. The keys on the side of the phone often get pressed if the phone is in your pocket.
Price
I brought it as part of a deal, the phone was free and I got a free blue tooth ear peice which I vary rarely use - I was paying £20 per month for 6 months and now I pay £16 and get some free minutes and texts included.
Battery
The battery charges quite quickly ...

The V3 integrates VoIP capabilities into a full-featured router to solve security issues created by VoIP telephone services, simplifies setup, and lowers cost. The Model 5567 comes with free Global Village VoIP phone service that sets up in minutes and lets you simply dial phone numbers and make free calls to compatible devices anywhere in the world. Global Village service also permits low cost calls to any phone on the conventional telephone network with both "pay per call" and "unlimited in the US" calling plans. And because the V3 uses SIP, the most popular protocol for voice communications over the Internet, you can tap into a rapidly-growing world of free and very low-cost phone services. Fail-Over to conventional phone service allows the V3 to automatically route calls over the dial-up phone network when power is lost. Conventional phone service support also allows the V3 to use proven emergency dialing services when "911" is dialed. Voice over IP for ADSL lines with absolutely no negatives. Use a broadband connection as a free second phone line and save money on phone calls using VoIP with no monthly minimums. Clear, natural-sounding voice quality. Quality of Service feature which prioritizes Voice data packets over other packets so that voice quality remains high, even when there is substantial non-voice traffic. The integrated design with built-in SPI/NAT firewall simplifies setup and improves security by eliminating "voice holes" in your firewall. STUN protocol which allows the delivery of voice traffic through a NAT firewall or router placed behind a separate NAT firewall in a home or office. The phone port allows ordinary single line phones to make both conventional calls and calls over the Internet. That supports reliable 911 calling and power fail-over: in the event power is lost, the V3 automatically connects the phone to conventional phone service. Global Village phone service is included for absolutely free Voice-over-IP to Voice-over-IP calls worldwide. Global Village also has low-cost, pay-as-you-go service with no monthly fee so you can use VoIP calling for as many or as few calls to conventional phones as you like. The V3 is not locked into Global Village service. Users can use the V3 with any SIP-based service that allows a hardware choice. Setup is easy using a WEB browser and the graphical wizard built into the V3. It works with any operating system supporting an Internet browser and Java scripts, including Windows, Macintosh and Linux.
