How is it possible to wait for an upgrade if my contract ends? I'd much rather wait and get the Idou than end up getting an N97 and getting rid of it. |

Nitro Fan, Idou is supposed to have OMAP 3 processor, much better than 5800s, or even n97s...but we shall see
Hi ares,
Thats good news but I have no problem with the 5800 processing power. But I think the OS Ui could do with some rationalisation its a bit inconsistent. IMHO the 5800's biggest failing is the lack of a bookmarking and sleep timer function in its music player.
I find it astonishing they left that out on what is supposed to be a Music orientated device!
 seem to feel they can charge top dollar for devices that are no longer sector leaders, IMHO this is a mistake just look at the X1 its already selling on eBay for far less than a P1! Why? because it is nothing special and looking at the specs released so far for Idou apart from the camera its nothing special either and it will no doubt be very expensive I can already buy a vanilla 5800 for under 200!!!!
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |

The Idou is using the exact same CPU as the Palm Pre, it's damn powerful and the Pre is the FIRST device to use it, the Idou second so that's one special spec above Nokia, then there's the exact same interface as Sony's Cybershot digital compact camera's so that too is better then anything else on the market. The 12.1mpx is amazing, the Walkman player is far better then Nokia's, perhaps the iPhone's player is better though?
Go buy a 5800, the Idou will kill it! It has a newer OS, much smoother graphics, better music and camera and IMO a MUCH better design, I've seen and played with the 5800, cheap and plastic is how I describe it's design.
So SE are packing a LOT of tech into this phone, they have EVERY right to charge for that, Nokia are charging you top doller for the N97 which has a worse camera, the OS is NOT the Symbian Foundation one and the music player won't be as good. Sure it has GB's of storage but for some of use we don't need to carry the entire contents of our computers around with us.
In fact that's what your REALLY paying for in the N97, the stupid amount of memory it has.
It sounds like your comparing the 5800 to the Idou which is utterly pointless, you have to compare it to the N97 for the argument to gain any credibility. |

Stop lying, the Idou is not the 2nd device to use OMAP3, the SAMSUNG OmniaHD is, its being released very soon as well, and the Idou? 2010 maybe? By then im sure NOKIA will have a phone running on the OMAP3 CPU. The N97 is mainly meant for social networking and media, i dont know how you can compare N97 and Idou when the latter is not even completely official yet as in its still not finalised, if N97 is crap rather get the OmniaHD, atleast by the time Idou is out the OmniaHD will have had a few FW updates and more stable.

Hahaha. I love it when people still comment on how Idou is going to be released in 2010, even after the Xperia released on time and made some fools eat their words. |

hmm, I just googled it and people seem to state it has an Arm Cortex A8 CPU which is part of the 3430 so you are right on that, but DON'T call me a liar mate. It's a case of I didn't know, not I blatantly knew but thought I would lie my ass of!
The Omnia HD according to one review has a battery cover that falls of all the time?
And you say the N97 and Idou are aimed at different audiences? hahahaha
Mate, they are BOTH AIMED AT CONSUMERS. They are both targeting the same customer, they are both NOT being aimed at business use. And I would get the n97 over the Samsung ANY day, waaaaayyyyyyy better design then Samsung and better battery much better build.
The Idou will be out in the second half of the year, that's what they have said, but as you correctly pointed out the Idou hasn't been officially announced yet as in the final product hasn't but it won't change much to the current design. |
