which is faster at communicating my p800 with my pc
ie for going on the Net using the p800, or transferring pictures/files etc is bluetooth faster or is it quicker when the p800 is in the Docking cradle
Thanx
(maybe someone can write the speeds of the three methods of Connectivity)
- INFRARED. =
- USB CRADLE =
- BLUETOOTH =

i find docking station quicker than BT, also you can specify where a file is going to on your memory card or internal memory where as BT seems to dump it in only one place. best solution is a memory stick reader/writer, thats why you get a piece of plastic to convert it from duo size to stick. much much quicker.

Docking station definatley.
worth picking up a usb mem stick reader writer for very quick file transfers to mem stick. as standard transfer speeds are very low.

i would hate to transfer one of your 80MB videos via cradle. most of the time if i am installing apps i copy the .SIS files to the duo and install from memory card, much quicker.

80Mb only takes about 2hr, the same as to encode it (but it only takes a second to delete it from the fone...)
it has to be the docking station for me as i dont have a BT dongle.
What rate will the USB reader transfer that sized film to the cards at?

If you really want the fastest solution, use a Memory Card Reader. It can copy megabytes of data in just seconds. |

Docking stations are just fine really. I do have a BT dongle for my server, which means I can sync the phone anywhere in the house.
But for installing applications, it's far easier to use the docking station. Plus I can also just drop my mobile into the docking station to charge as well.
