I know this isnt a phone but it runs WM 6.1.
I will get my Clear 4G Mondi sometime in the morning. I am interested to see how well it will run Slingplayer mobile and Logmein via PIE. I currently use my HTC Diamond, but the screen is just to small to remote desktop to the dozen or so PCs I maintain. Plus my TIVO will be a little more watchable on a larger screen.
I have had UMPCs like the Wibrain, Fujitsu U810 and Flipstarts in the past. But, none were really pocketable. I'll post pictures and more later during the day Tuesday 10-3.

The Samsung Mondi includes the following features:

Windows Mobile 6.1
Microsoft Outlook and Windows Mobile Office
WiMAX Mobile Internet Access
WiFi Access (BTv2.1+EDR)
GPS: Route 66 Navigation with Preloaded Maps
4GB of Internal Memory
Direct Push/Mobile Email (POP3, IMAP, SMTP)
Supports Instant Messaging and MMS
3.0 Megapixel Camera and Camcorder
Bluetooth ® 2.0
Opera 9.5 Web Browser
HDMI TV Out
Supports Multiple Video and Audio Player Formats
Weight: 152 gm
Size (WxHxD): 4.72" x 2.95" x.63"

I only got my Clear 4G home modem this morning. I am getting 6.2MB dowloads with burst up to 10MB and 430kbs uploads. The uploads are faster then my Roadrunner Turbo was and the downloads are a little slower than Roadrunner Turbo. And I am getting both the home modem and mobile Mondi unlimited for $55 a month. Which is less than what Road Runner Turbo cost.

The Mondi will be here Wednesday.

To use the Clear 4G home modem with a Slingbox. You will need a level 2 tech to log into the modem and turn off the firewall and enable all the ports. Slingplayer worked great on my Diamond after this was done. I did find out that the Wimax modem IP is http://192.168.15.1/. Havent figured out the password yet. I know the modem does have a PRL loaded on it.

Here are a couple screen shots from the Samsung Mondi. The 800x480 resolution on the 4.25" screen is great.

Speed test with Clear 4G Wimax 1920kbps a tad bit faster than the 520kbps ( Cricket Wireless ), I was getting on my Diamond. This was done on the bottom floor of a four story building.

This is Logmein PDA.

Last is Slingplayer, connected to my Slingngbox Pro-HD, showing my TIVO. It will full screen with no controls if you click off to the right.
