New Phone time again. - SV650.org

30-10-07, 01:20 PM

Now its getting to that time again and my phone contact is going to be up soon, so need to see whats the next best hot thing.

At the moment I'm looking at the following -
Nokia N95 - All singing all dancing smartphone.
Sony Erricson P1i - they all new smartphone, looks nice and shinny.
iPhone - The snazzy phone for the fashion ******.

Currently I have a XDA mini S (HTC Wizard), smart phone running Windows Mobile 5, I love all the features of a PDA style phone. Plus lots of good ways for me to keep notes and keep track of things due to my awful memory. Plus I have Tom Tom as my sense of direction is terrible, though I'm OK once I've do a route. Main thing I hate about it is how awful the camera is...

So any other ideas, or any recommendations to the phones I'm looking at.

Suzi Perry reviewd the iphone on C5 yesterday - it's apparently only got a 2megapixel camera, no video recording & a snazzy screen that's hard to dial numbers on.

...oh and it's an Apple so therefore more evil than Microsoft crossed with Pol Pot.

The iPhone is nothing more than a fancy gadget with some eventually usable functions thrown in to justify being on the market. Personal opinion only, of course.

The HTC itouch or Itouch 2

If you get it from buymobilephones.net you get a PS3 or Xbox360 for not a lot of money too..... (i.m getting a 6300 and PS3 for 39.99)

And no I dont work for them....

I'm very happy with my N95. Battery isn't great tbh, but that's my only criticism.

I haven't used Nokia for a long time after there flaky phones cheesed me off one time to many... I think I would need to try it first.

Q: Does this mean the XDA "might" be on offer? I'm in the market for some bike-compatible TomTom, ya see

HTC P3300 / XDA Orbit / O2 wotsit here. With built-in SIRFStar III GPS antenna. Simply fab (not with the original ROM, though

)

Well I'm getting it replaced to, as its faulty, just before the contact runs out too... so it will be lovely and new if I'm lucky.
