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.)

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! |

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? |
