    Samsung i8910

    I haven't heard any news about the release date. I admit I'm not paying very close attention to it, though. It's only on my radar because of so many comparisons with the N97. I'm not really interested in it because it lacks a keyboard. Seems like a real winner if you want a touchscreen only...

    Jailbreak != Unlock

    I keep seeing this mistake in various threads mentioning the iPhone. Jailbroken does not mean unlocked. They are two completely different things. Jailbroken means that you can install basically whatever software you want on the iPhone. Different backgrounds, skins, apps, whatever you want...

    Potential loophole?

    I'm not sure as I don't have GV. If you're really interested, you should check out the Google Voice forum on google's site. Fourm here. That's where I stumbled upon the info about SIP. It wasn't what I was searching for at the time, but I found it interesting enough to read through the thread.

    Should I get an iPhone?

    Yeah, that's a strength Nokia has. I can be standing next to someone with zero or one bar of 3G or maybe a 3 bars of 2G and I have full bars of 3G. People complain to me that coverage sucks in an area, yet I never lose signal in the same places. Just something to keep in mind when choosing a...

    Samsung Memoir anyone have one? T-mobile users

    You'll only get 2G speeds with an iPhone, and it would need to be unlocked (use on any network) not necessarily jailbroken (install any software). The Engadget review of the Memoir seemed to think the Behold was a better buy. Basically the same phone with a 5 mp camera vs the 8 mp on the Memoir...

    Nokia N97 (Me getting one)

    Lol @ $500. These things are going to be $800 easy when they first come out. Only hardcore Nokia fans or people with way too much money to blow are gonna be picking these up for the first month or two. I don't think you'll be able to get one at a reasonable price until at least August. And...

    Potential loophole?

    Yeah, this is something people are taking advantage of already. I don't think anyone's had problems with it yet. Something else people are trying out is getting a SIP service like Gizmo5 set up. It's basically a VoIP (VoIP is a subset of SIP) service and you get free calls between other SIP...

    Nokia N97 (Me getting one)

    I don't think it's possible to have a perfect keyboard on this scale. You're always going to have to make some sacrifices. The G1's layout is a bit too busy for my taste. I don't think I would miss the top row of number keys. It's easy enough to hit a button to get at them when you need them...

    Nokia N97 (Me getting one)

    I'm sorry, I edited my message. I was confused. I thought your post was in reference to the Toshiba. I realized later it was to the N97. You see? I thought you were saying the Toshiba had the best specs of any phone. Nokia is failing pretty hard at modern UI design, I agree. They're getting...

    New phone recommendations (HTC - NEVER AGAIN!)

    Yeah, the N97 will come with rape-your-skull prices. Yes, Nokia phones are expensive, but that's because they can't play nice with AT&T or T-Mobile to get $200 off with a contract. It's hard to justify the cost of a Nokia unless it's exactly what you want in a phone. If you just want a...

    Should I get an iPhone?

    No it's not. It's not even close. It's one of the WORST cameras out there. Just had to correct you on that. 2 mp with not even a single led flash? What is this, 2003? I'm not an iPhone or Apple hater (I've got a Macbook Pro), but would never get an iPhone. I just can't stand using a media...

    Not touchscreen, one of his reqs.

    New phone recommendations (HTC - NEVER AGAIN!)

    Use GSM Arena's Phone Finder. In the network bands, choose 3.5g 850 + 1900. Unfortunately, that'll filter out a couple of phones that haven't been released yet (most notably the N97), so if you wanna see what might come to our shores choose 3.5g 2100. Sometimes it'll filter out a phone or two...

    Nokia N97 (Me getting one)

    Can you get a deal on an N85? Generally considered the true upgrade to the N95. The N96 is about the slowest N-Series phone you can get. It's "dual core", but the second core mostly goes unused. It's effectively an ARM 9 - 264 MHz chip. Compare that to the ARM 11 - 369 MHz in every other...
