Its a very nice review, I'm stoked about slingbox, this is one of the reasons i am anxious to upgrade from the blackjack - smoother experience.
- you teased you were going to show the Business card scanner app, but didn't demo it. I suppose i'll see it for myself in time but i was looking forward to that
Very very good review I cant wait till mine comes in the mail now lol. I was very happy to see you using the slingplayer as I have a slingbox that is just sitting unopened on my dresser atm waiting to be used. Question tho does the sling player come installed on the kaiser or will i need to use my code for a free one when i set up my slingbox?
other then that seeing sky work is great as i use it on my pc to call canada alot it will be nice to have be tied to it anymore.
overall this review would be a 10/10 great job and you got me stoked about getting mine lol.

Hey guys I i just bought an HTC 8925, and i stumbled across the forum, seems like a huge community. My phone should come in on tuesday, im upgrading from an iphone.. Just wanted to say hi.
Welcome! Get ready for tons of info, apps, and really good tweaks to put your phone over the edge!
Yeah!!! iPhone --> HTC, good move. What was the reason?
definately a good move! HTC is way better than the competition!
i broke my iphone, and instead of buying a new one i figured id go back to windows mobile.. ive had a few other smartphones but never as nice as the tilt.. there is really nothing to do to the iphone tweakwise other than themes.. plus the gps and 3mp camera really won me over
Smart Move...Welcome aboard! What part of Cleveland? I spent time in Akron years ago...
hola..and welcome
Hello, i am a WM user since my qtek s200, and that is a way back, i love WM phones, i had over 6 WM devices and now i had a contract renewal and i got myself an iphone 3gs. I am a iphone hater -or maybe was-, and i do have the device for 4 days now. To my suprise the iphone is really good, really fast, and now that has turn by turn navigation its really usable. Fluent graphics, really powerful applications, and really really good support.
I thought i would never say this, but i am selling both my HD's, and its gonna take me a while to get back to WM devices.
Flame as you guys want, i just wanted to give my 2 cents on the thing thats happening.
I went the other way. Had enough of the low-res toy that is the Iphone, with Apple constantly blocking users from doing what they want.
My condolences
Well - as always it depends on what you want from your device... If you are satisfied with the abilities apple lets you use - go for the iphone. If you want a device you can customize in every way you want - go for a WM-device. And I have to agree with arfster: The resolution on the iphone is a disgrace! I'm definitely not willing to go to anything below VGA after having a WVGA device!
But I'm happy as long as your happy with the iphone!

Nice one!
I used to own an iPod touch (Iphone without the phone) and just found it to gimmicky. Sooner or later you will get bored of useless apps & games and come running back
Anyway have fun with your iPhone! I certainly would like to have one for 12 months +!

Congratuations.
I've seen enough of what it can do to know that you're making the right move. Once jailbroken, I've seen how customizable it is, perhaps even more customizable than winmo phone. Everytime I see her, the phone looks different. She was having a HTC Hero look just the other day, and before that it looked like a Palm Pre. I've seen my cousin's iPhone and played with it, and it is truly amazing and awesome. Fantastic application functionalities and choices. Fantastic speed and smoothness. Fantastic for internet on the go. Fantastic media device.
I'm half way there in my saving to buy a second hand 3GS.

What stuff from HTC Hero or Palm Pre did you actually see? Are you certain that it is customizable. Because all I can see is the same old home screen with an HTC Hero Wallpaper.
Yes you now have turn by turn navigation but just see what happens when you take a phone call. On my Diamond TomTom just continued working and I could chat away to my heart's content. The iPhone will terminate the satnav application to tale the call. The iPhone is very, very shiny but has some serious restrictions - not to mention having to jailbreak to get away from the control freakery that is Apple.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
theres my thoughts
kidding but in all seriousness, and im sure we remember the other conversations iphone is for ppl and winmo is for others
it depends on what ur needs are from the deivice
What is it about people that they feel the need to come on a Windows Mobile forum to start a new thread to announce that they just got a new iPhone ?
Can't they just ressurrect one of the other 1000 threads that were started everytime Apple passes gas. ?
I have five Macs currently, am typing this on a Mac, my first PDA was an Apple Newton. I have been an Apple fanboy for 30yrs. And am on my second iPhone.
I also love my Kaiser. Now when I got my new 3Gs last month, my first thought wasn't to rush right over to XDA to start a new thread to announce that I had gotten a new iPhone, why is that everyone elses first thought ?
Can we just add all the " I just got a new iPhone " threads to the AS team's list of duties ?

The AS team thinks these should be considered spam, but we need the xda admin's blessing...

No, it's more than a mere wallpaper. It also includes customizing the icons, the keyboards, the phone pad, the home screen itself, etc.
Did some googling, and found this..
Of course, don't expect it to have the complete behaviour of HTC hero, just like you would not expect a winmo phone that has been customized to mimic iphone to behave like iPhone.
Cheers.
You have served me well these last 3 years,
I will never forget the laughs the fun the tears,
I will never forget the hours spent making you perform better than the silly iphone ever could,
I will never forget dealing with the graphics issues,
I now retire you,
and lay you down to rest,
I will never forget.
So I finally took advantage of the T-Mobile free TP2 deal through wmdeals. I think my kaiser has served me well but alas, its time to upgrade. Thanks everyone of the kaiser cooks and people that helped me with allmy issues. Alas now a new phone to deal with. My kaiser has served me well. look for me in the rhodium section.
Chris
Not bad for a 2 and a half year old phone.
can you post a message or link in here sometime, if you compare the 2.
my kaiser is coming up for retirement and i'm interested to know how they compare, a few comments from a real user are worth a hundred web reviews.

cellphone technology usually changes more rapidly every 3 years..tp2 still isnt next gen like HD2 for nexus one, but a more mature and nice upgrade feel to the kaiser
Actually I tend to disagree, it is capable of quite a bit more than what we have seen before. Also just because its still got a qualcomm 7200 its been upgraded to A level and given a speed increase. I honestly believe it qualifies as next gen. People are so hung up on nexus and really, its not that much better IMO. (Not trying to start a debate, it is my opinion and I respect yours.)
Anyway Give me a few days use, I just got it yesterday and ill write a review.
As promised here is a link to my review:

Hi guys/gals. I come from a place called nvnews. I've lurked unregistered for a while, and now that my HTC Pure is on its way (as well as an LG Xenon) I figured I'd register to further check out what this community has to offer.
I'm excited to see how the Pure can dovetail into my life as a dad, guitar player/drummer, forum mod/staff member, PC gamer and landscaper.
I've had a Blackjack I for over two years now which I OCed with OMAPClock and put WinMo 6 on it. ... and since it can't play TCPMP movies and stream the audio via bluetooth without major slowdowns, it's time for it to be retired. Guess I'll give it to my kids so they can put music on it and play some NES titles.
I'll be interested in the possibility of running Android on my Pure if it makes sense... I'll overclock it if there's a need for snappier performance, I'm excited to see how Pocket IE 6 and Opera perform vs Skyfire, I hope to play Call of Duty 2 or another decently polished FPS on it, and I'd like to investigate the possibility of the usb port to output A/V.
I can always be found at nvnews, a PC gaming hardware community that has been around for a LONG time. I'm pretty sure however that I'll probably stay logged onto this site 24/7 as well.
So yeah, hello!
Welcome to XDA! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and expectations. I hope you enjoy this site!.
One thing that you can do while you are waiting for your Pure, I will recommend that you take some time for reading the rules and visiting the forums so you can start to get familiar with this community.
Welcome again!
Cheers!
I just saw this game on another site and decided to give it a try since it's free. I've been want Words With Friends or a decent clone for awhile. Wordwise Pro just doesn't fit the bill. So far WordFeud is great given it's really new.
http://wordfeud.com/
PS: I'm not getting paid to promote this. It's just really fun and I'd though I'd share.
Add me if you want to play. My ID is Snapshotx
Awesome! I have been looking for something like this. Thanks so much. Just started playing you, username is Foobu.
Thanks for the recommendation! I have been missing "Words with Friends"
Anyone can add me for a game as well. My ID is dweebs0r.
wioooow this is the most exciting day I have ever had work my captivate, please people just uninstall word wize loool, that's is it,this is actually better than words with friends, all it needs is sounds, and an option to pay for a add free version, if they make this a cross platform words with friends is going to be yesterdays news
The reason I want words with friends is so that I can play with my fiancee on her iPhone.
tell get to get a android then you can be reunited with word feud again lol
Having alot of problems staying connected
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
its been working flawless for me and all my friends maybe its your network or something
my mistake, yes it isn't working at all now, even there website is down, seams like words with friends bought them out lol
Back up and working
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Been playing it with my coworker since this morning, lol... Btw, is there a way to resign even if it's not your turn yet?
yes, this is MUCH better than WordWize - almost exactly like WWF.... if anyone is up for a game, feel free to invite me: Aftashok is the name.
man I used to LOVE words with friends on my iPhone. Thanks so much for sharing this!!!
If anyone wants to play just add: smeltn
i wish the game would incorporate a ratings system and win/loss records..... the competitive me wishes for such things.
Wish there was at least a paid version to get rid of ads, hopefully that will come cause i dont mind paying a dollar to support the developer on this, pretty good so far and the people over at WWF probably wont release anything for a while. Thought that games that were won/lost didnt go away but apparently they do after 2 days, needs to be sooner than that or user removable.
Name: hollaholla
Sweet!
Mine is TexUS.
It'd be nice if WWF would show up on here though so I can play with iPhone people.
This game uses a lot of data, like 1MB in 1 Minute.
Is there anyway to stop it from using data when you're not in a WiFi area?
thanks for the heads up...
awesome game...
PS: not to thread-jack, but has anyone found a good boggle clone out there... with randomly oriented letters like the real game?

check out wordup. it's a "boggle-like" game.
on topic, word feud is fun. checking out how much batt. it takes with the push notification and multiple games. add me for games: funthony.
I gave this a try a few weeks ago, after using WordWise for 2 months...and I wasn't a big fan. The lack of a paid version, updates, and stat tracking was kind of a deal breaker.
WordWise was admittedly spartan when it first came out...but the developer updates the app fairly regularly, so I think I'mma stick with that one...until it gets abandoned or WordFeud updates. Heh.
