Friends,
I broke my BA LCD screen today. I am thinking of buying new PPC. What is the best PPC available in USA.
Thanks
Go for HTC Shift
wait until HTC shift arrives, or search whether it has already arrived in yr town.
its the new umpc by HTC and will have gprs/gsm/edge/etc.... all the services available with windows vista.
see this....... http://www.htc.com/
HTC Advantage
I would recommend the HTC Advantage (X7501) if you've got high budget and don't mind a device with a slightly larger form factor (5" screen). It's loaded with features.
If you want a smaller truly pocket device then there are alternatives. See my list of VGA Pocket PCs here: http://kripster.blogspot.com/2007/05/vga-pocket-pc-roundup-ver-5.html. It's a UK based list but should give you a good starting point.

I am going to switch my hermes into something new, I have the S730, HTC Touch, Touch Dual and Kaiser in my hands right now, and I just cant decide!!
and if that wasn't enough, I also have the Cruise to choose as well.
But which one? I really like the Touch models (leaning toward the Htc Touch and not the Dual) because of their size, they are perfect to just have in your pocket. However, GPS and 3G would be nice! and that has the Kaiser and the Cruise. So there it is just a matter of keyboard and fat or no keyboard and slim.
what should I choose? i don't use the keyboard that much, but hey, it is there waiting for me and it is alot faster typing with the keyboard, but on the other hand, slim is nice too..
what would you have choosen?
Kaiser can do a lot more that the oter phones.
But all of them have 1 problem. VIDEO DRIVERS
Why would you buy from HTC again after this latest debacle? Look at the new imates or the Eten phones.

first of all we don't have eten or Imates in sweden (as far as I know), second I would like to have the Iphone, which is also not availible in sweden, third, my company has settled for htc as their product of choice. I am aware of the driver problems, but not sure how that inflect with a business phone as kaiser for example.
cause this affects 3d and video performance which is not my first priority (although it certainly is nice to watch videos and play some games once in a while)

Somebody tell me if I'm wrong here but aren't iMates just re-branded HTC units?? AFIAK...
The only thing they change is the start-up screen and a few app's!!
In fact, the last ROM update I had from them for my iMate JasJam (Wizard) still had the HTC boot screen on it.
I currently have an HTC Touch which I really really love, and a great plan from sprint too.
I found this site that says the HTC Touch Diamond will be the best phone of 2008...link: http://www.mytouch-diamond-phone.com
Does any agree or disagree???

Disagree. Either the Pro or the X1 will be better, mostly because of the memory card slot. I only wish their camera would be better - at least the same quality as the Omnia or the Nokia N95/N82...
How about HTC Dream android phone? that looks cool from the vague snippets I have seen, but the pro and the X1, so big and not so desirable.The Diamond is the best phone so far in my opinion.

It all depends on what you are looking for - as always. Size? Speed? Weight? SD-Slot? Mutlimedia device? Office? Something to show off or to work with?
There is no such thing as a perfect phone for everyone.....or a perfect wife/girl-friend for that matter. There will only be a perfect device/wife/gf etc. for YOU!

A guy in fones 4 u tried to convince me that the Samsung Tocco is the best phone of the year: better than the Iphone in fact. The frightening thing is that everyone in the shop agreed with him, and I was made to feel the odd one out for hating it! He even said it had a better camera than the N95!!!!!!
I had it for one day and thought it was an appallingly sluggish and pointless touchscreen experience with a fiddly and underpowered interface: can anyone tell me one good thing about the Tocco????
It's the Diamond for me so far, all the way; though for me nothing beats the N95 as an all-round value-for-money Smartphone: it's not a 2008 phone though, and it's probably anathema in these forums.
SO FAR :its hard to choose between the iphone and diamond for me...
tho i wud probably go for diamond coz im definitely more comfi using
widows over mAC
BUT wat i really believe is "THE BEST IS YET TO COME "
Hey mates,
I dont know the actuall Phones on the market , so i thought you guys can maybe help me out.
I am looking for a good sucessor to my Kaiser. I really love this phone but its already 2 years old now and well my phone looks like somekind of trash .
Also i got massive problems in the last time , dunno why. I am using the Ultimate X2 roms at the moment. But it seems that i sometimes cannot open my contacts or run programs.
So i like to get a new phone cause my phone contract is going to run out also.
I was thinking about the X2 but it seems to be tooooo pricie :/.
Do you guys have any nice suggestions what phone i should get ? A must have is a qwertz keyboard
Thanks
HTC
Device database is good to get the full specs
TP2 if outa price range then the Raphael is still an extremely good phone.
Re: Kaiser hard-reset or flash another ROM...
Raphael can be had for about £160 on eBay, simply unlock it if required & use whatever network provider takes your fancy.
Most other keyboard options are going to be pricey but if your thinking of starting a contract soon you might find a reasonable deal !
You could keep the Kaiser, reflash it with a stable ROM & buy & fit a new complete housing for it !
The Verizon Droid comes out on the 6th in the US. Not sure if you are looking to stick with an HTC device or Windows Mobile. It's only going to be $199 rather than the TP2 which is as much as $350. It's got a similar processor and google maps turn-by-turn directions. And....it has a directional pad, if you can't live without that.
Check it out: http://phones.verizonwireless.com/motorola/droid/
Touch pro 2 is the best successor. I dont think the droid fits the title of "successor" when talking about the kaiser. The touch pro2 retains the tilting screen, windows mobile operating system, and of course the slide out qwerty.
hi guys.i am x1 owner more than a year.i had good and bad experience with my x1.now this is the time to upgrade my phone.which phones you guys are recommeding?
3 things are essential for me.sliding keyboard(aka hardware keyboard) , fast cpu and large screen.what do you thing?which phone shoudl i get?thx in advance...
few i want recommend such as HD2 or X10 but they dont have sliding keyboard
I am pondering currently between the HD2 and much more simple HTC Snap.
HD2 is very expensive though...
And after what i've seen from Sony with the X1 - X2 is out of the question
I am thinking about buying X10 mini pro... Cheap enough and nice qwerty keyboard. and ANDROID!!!
get an lg expo 1ghz cpu nice screen and sliding keyboard.
I would also go for a LG Expo if I had to choose a phone now.
Overclocked milestone/droid
thx for all your comments and advice guys.you are very help full.lg expo looks very good.i review omniaII as well.looks not bad...is there any 1ghz one hand device guys?like htc snap?!htc snap screen looks small and cpu is same as x1...i must read and investigate more
I've made my decision....
X1 isnt that bad of a phone so i'm gonna stick with it until it breaks, for 18 a month i can get unlimited texts, unlimited data and 300 minutes for a sim only deal.
HD2 and Lg expo and that are just soo expensive! even with contract!
Its the same for me. I dont see a reason to replace my Xperia X1. It does everything I need just perfectly.
Samsung GT-B7610 OmniaPRO looks ok. But no D-pad

I'm also staying with the X1 until it breaks. After that I'll probably get the Nexus 2, since WP7 is turning me off.

I'm with you on this one. Too bad it won't have Sense UI, though. I can hope they do something better than default Android OS.
Since I am in U.S. I feel deprived of options since HD2, Omnia series phones, and even the Nexus One are not usable on AT&T 3G.
I had Xperia X1 - it was a great device. The only problem I had was the poor reception.
If I was you, I'd buy one of the following:
- HTC HD2
- Sony Ericsson X10 (Nexus One is to ugly for my taste, sorry)
... or hold your breath for a while... Windows Phone 7 will arrive soon
Good luck!
I'm using my x1 from 3 month...i have 2 reasons to change it: the slide is going damnly ko (i will go soon to service center...), and is missing video acceleration for divx....!!
I think the better wm phone now is lg gw820 expo....but i live in Italy and it is not available in europe....!
Another nice one can be samsung b7610!
If you like android try to consider the cheap lg gw620.
I think i will repair my x1 slide and may be i will wait Christmas to upgrade it, because when will be availabe wm7 phones, wm6.5 phone will be cheaper!
Sorry for my bugged english...!!
