hi
for the past 3 months ive been waiting for the p900 to come out, and ill buy it for sure. still, i read about a samsung sgh-i505 coming soon which runs palm OS. bluetooth and infrared are not confirmed, but if they were, which would be better and why? thx

As far as I know the i505 does not have support for a memory card, which I think is a serious shortfall.
Edit: Stand corrected on the SD slot. I think I am thinking about the i500.

what do i need? the p900 would be the perfect phone for me, but the i505 has an SD port AND it has rotating screen AND it has a huge screen 320*353 pixels, much bigger than p900. heres a link i found:

LG has revealed new smartphone. If it had better design and bluetooth it would definitely beat everything on the market today, despite that it is built on M$ OS. Acording rumours we could expect something similar from SE only in summer 2004. Sad

I suspect, like the Sony Clie NZ90, the LG will be large and heavy. Also, why do think Dell have decided not to pursue Smartphones - because they know Symbian is a much better OS for communication/PDA devices.

I think I will end up going for the New Nokia Communicator, due to be announced in the next few days. I think it will be much better then the slighly tweaked P900.

(How soon is this Nokia thing happening? I have decided to go for keyboard-based PDA-phone, and skip the pen-based ones.)

@ fijbert,
the samsung does have a touch screen
@ gjgjgj
i think the LG phone rocks but it doesnt have bluetooth! i dont undrstand what the problem is with these microsoft smartphones...
plus, its only for the korean market i think
i also considered the new Nokia communicator but a touch screen is what im looking for...
does any1 else know any good smartphones with touch screen availible for european/middle east markets? thx

That samsung phone would be huge!!! Its already 4 inches high in "closed" mode. If you are gonna have to open it up to talk, you would be holding something 8 inches long to your ear! may not look so good! hahaha! It is almost almost like holding 2 P800s stuck together end to end. Might as well get something like the form factor of a O2 xda then!

Motorola A920 its U G L Y
Posted by dobi
wow...that is huge. still, it has amazing features and SD slot. its definately better than p800/900 and dont forget if the screen was flipped so the keypad wasnt showing it wouldnt be that big, would it?
Posted by fijbert
anyone hv the white sheet for the SGH-i505?
I'm quite intrigued!
touch + keypad
what more can one ask for?

I dont want to betray my P-buddies

fij,
exactly my thoughts. i know the p900 is great, but face it, the SGH-i505 rocks! wifi and everything...
Posted by fijbert
u hv the specs for it?
Posted by BlackBauer24
U guys got any links to some images of the SGH-i505
Posted by dobi
@fijbert

and
http://www.brighthand.com/article/Samsung_Demos_SGH-i505
the thing that sucks is no flash for the camera. i only say this becuz theres a flash on the SGH-i500 but not on the i505
if anyone else does have additional info plz post here.

Ooopss, overlooked the rotating screen part, dobi! Sorry, my mistake. If one can still use the phone functions with the screen rotated and flipped back (covering the keypad) then it wouldn't be so bad I guess.
