very nice phone. I used the cingular 6682 last year before it got recalled. have you used much of the UMTS yet? I was wondering if Cingular would give you the WAP settings for it..because that'd be way cool.

edit: temporarily recalled. :rollseyes: it's back now but Nokia USA is still kinda stinkin' it up!

I'm actually on T-Mobile right now .
Can you explain those two acronyms?

Like many other 6680 users, the given flashware sucks ass and gives all kinds of problems..since its an import not supported by Nokia USA, what should I do?

Well, first of all, it's a Sony Ericsson, which is notorious for bad user interface. The MP3 feature is loud but without clarity, and the reception is average. It doesn't even use a memory chip...go for the higher model, the W900i (?).

the w600i is actually one of my favorite phones to sell. The reception is great in my area, and I live in a fairly small town with few Cingular towers and few Cingular roaming towers. I would go for the w900i too, for the quality but always keep in mind when getting a NON- Cingular phone (esp. one for $400+) that it cannot be insured. That would suck if you broke it. Trust me, I've done it.

If you absolutely want music and you want to be able to buy a memory chip, get a S710a which the model before the W600i but I actually like it a little better. It still swivels, still has the 1.3 megapixel but one thing I like about mien is that it uses a mino sd card. I like the screen on it better, too! The camera is also cooler looking. Granted, the w600i was advertised and designed for music but I still like my s710 > w600i.

Or if you want something newer, try the SLVR. Up to a gig I think.

Another phone that we're launching soon is the V3i. RAZR but with iTunes. Should be kind of nifty.

Here's what I'm rockin'...Motorola E815: http://www.mobiledia.com/phones/motorola/e815.html

Nice MP3 player, decent camera (as cell phones go, I guess), and really way more phone than I'll ever need. I did have to hack my phone, but probably because Verizon is a company full of greedy bastards (it's a long story). So far it's worked really well for me.

I've got a Treo 650 right now. The first of May I'll be picking up a Samsung A-900.


Those of you with Verizon may want to hold off for this bad boy.....

Samsung A990

If it launched, would you choose the Treo 700 > the a900? I think the a900 is the only reason I would ever switch to spring... it's the hotness!!!

It depends on your usage. For business, the Treo 700 or 650 is the ONLY way to go (6700 is nice too). For most people, the A900 or A920 is the way to rock. I've owned a Treo 650 and I loved it (sed alot for my jobs). But it got to be bulky at times when I wasn't working (try clubbin with a Treo; ain't happenin).

I don't agree that it's the ONLY way to go. The new Cingular 8125 is pretty spiffy, too. Try the smartphone + pda all in one. Anyway, I was just wondering what you'd go for. A lot of my customers walk into my store choosing looks over features and I was wondering why. If you use a Treo for business AND clubbin, try getting a more compact phone on eBay or something. It sounds silly, but a lot of people have been likin' that idea.

Smartphones are what you would call that category of phones (PDA + Phone). The Treo 700 is Windows Mobile as well. As is the 6700 that I mentioned (which looks strangely ALOT like the 8125).

When it comes to smartphones, its a matter of preference. I prefer the Palm OS over the Windows Mobile. Its much easier to navigate with a single and without a stylus than the Windows Mobile (though it has gotten better). Since I've owned a Treo 650, an IPAQ & many regular cell phones I speak from experience on that. The only reason I parted ways with my Treo was size. I wasn't using enough for business to justify keeping it.

Hey Derek take it easy on the internet browsing if you're using it. I was talking to a friend and it's 2$ a page!! Some dude that worked with his wife was showing people the new phone and blew a 300$ card in an hour or so.
