Re: HTC touch HD

I'm using 6.1 and its been great so far. I know one annoying thing WinMo did, was it never really closed an app that you were using. when you hit the "x" at the top of the screen, it would minimize...

I was recently in a similar situation with my 770. I needed to get a new cell phone plan anyway, and started looking into combining the two devices. I wasn't especially enthusiastic about the 770,...

Re: HTC touch HD

with the touch interface, you really don't need a d-pad. I never use the d-pad on my htc mogul - it's either all by finger touch, or stylus when I use it.

winmo 6.1 is pretty nice, actually. ...

Re: Found perfect convergence device. Its not a N8XX.

eh, don't let it get to you. I recently sold my IT after I bought a HTC/Sprint Mogul and started using winMobile (and like it) so now I am the devil incarnate.

I still like the IT concept though,...

Re: HTC Touch Diamond Review

I understand the 8xx devices are better than the 770, but in the end, they are still more expensive and more limited than what I paid for the mogul + phone plan.

I'm glad your happy with debian....

Re: HTC Touch Diamond Review

I looked into that, but MM seemed like a glorified version of gps enabled google maps to me. I didn't see a way to look up hotels, ATMs, Gas Stations, etc. and then do turn by turn routing to them.

I got the mogul for $200 with the contract. the 810 was considerably more at the time, and doesn't include the GPS function, which was extra (last time I checked anyway). I got on the sprint sero...

Re: HTC Touch Diamond Review

I disagree.. I used the 770 for a while, and have found winmobile 6.1 to be wayyyy more user friendly and a lot easier to find apps for. Maemo is just too cumbersome to work with for most people.

Re: Seperate phone versus all-in-one

No I didn't. I clearly stated "n770" in my post - more than once.

Re: New Apple iPhone and iPod touch models

This is not a "next gen" iPod Touch. this is still a 1st gen, just with more memory. If they had added flash support, I'd be tempted, but not for $500 lol.

still need to wait for a 2nd gen touch.

Re: spent some time with an ipod Touch this weekend

Like I said, you DON'T need iTunes. use winamp or ephpod.




I still don't understand, it DOES play mp3s. My iPod has been playing thousands of mp3s.
