Hi Whybe,

Why not?. Isn't that a software app? a good developer will do it.

@Max

As i said there were a few things that i didn't really like and have found out these weren't just because it was a VodaFone X1. But although Masseur was OK with the text size he did mention that the screen although wide isn't very tall although that is partly down to the small size of the X1. It did mean i wasn't that happy with the text size and how much info was seen in either of the Web Browsers and once zoomed in showed even less info on the screen.

Also the keyboard had to much wasted space IMO why have gaps between the letters? also the keys were small and offered very little tactile feed back many times i would enter multiple entries of the same letter and need to delete them.

But once again i must stress i did think there were some great positives on the X1 just for me the negatives outweighed them. These things may not bother others but on an X1 Forum i was not the first or only person with these complaints or the only person to have sold or returned the X1. So my perception of these negatives is not unique to me.

Thanks, Marc we understand that you as everyone else has preferences, don't be so concern about. I believe every one here is very appreciative of your opinion and knowledge, not just for the Xperia but for any other topics.

Hi Whybe,

It takes cooperation on both the client side and server side. So the iPhone has software that takes advantage of some "hooks" provided by the AT&T voicemail system.
All of your voicemails are listed with their caller-id info or area info (if no caller-id is available). The user can select which voicemail they choose to listen to--in other words, random access voicemail. You can also pause, fast-forward, and rewind voicemail during playback (I guess the audio is downloaded to the iPhone through 3G or Edge before playback). This is one of those special features that people rave about on the iPhone.

I was hoping there would be something similar available for WinMo.

Well, I finally took the plunge and ordered from CPW. I rang earlier this week and they offered to match an O2 deal of £99.99 handset on an 18 month, £35 p/month contract.

When I rang today, I got through to the Customer Loyalty department. They offered me a £39.99 handset on an 18 month, £35 p/month contract

I went for the unlimited mobileweb bolt-on, but I have to wait until 04/12/08 before this kicks in

The only problem now, is waiting until Monday for it to be delivered

There won't be a X1a as the X1 has all the necessary bands to works worldwide.
* GSM 850
* GSM 900
* GSM 1800
* GSM 1900
* EDGE
* UMTS tri-band 850/1900/2100
* HSPA


Not Possible? where is the UMTS 900?
If there is ot X1a so what happened with the VGA 30 fps issue?

At work all my calls are forward to my cell and my email, so I have a record of who call and who left voice mail.
If I go into the voice mail I listen one at a time.
If I go into email I pick which one to listen

Thagt's What I tought it was a matter of software

Glad to see your posts again.
I believe you dissected an Xperia. If you did, maybe you are the person to confirm all the rumors about te 384MG RAM and the RADIOS because it seems that the software shows 1700 an 850 but maybe the hardware is not there.

Thanks Humble

Hi!

for those that used, not just looked at on the internet, a TyTn II!

Why is the X1 better than the TyTn II?

I played with one in CWP today, and checked out panels, fish etc etc !

It felt sturdy and the keyboard slid out smoothly... Yes, it felt really good...

but, in your opinion, why is it so much better?

I think they said £549-95 ? for sim free.

if you've updated your TyTN II to 6.1 then really the difference is screen size/resolution, panels and overall size.. and the fact its and the quality of build and feel is excellent
