Successor to the Kaiser?

Guys!
What will be the successor to this bit of kit most of us have had knocking around for about a year or so now? I'm looking for something similar - ie 'proper' keyboard, good screen, 3g, satnav, cam, and whatever is new and sexy!
I am struggling to think that there i will be a better form factor - but ya never know!
i am a little outta touch with the tech - as i only follow the game when i am really n the market to buy...
so i welcome any good info!
be kool,

HTC Touch Pro, AKA Raphael.
Check the Raph forum and/or wiki on this site or http://coolsmartphone.com.
Or wait and see if HTC bring out a Touch HD (aka Blackstone) with a keyboard

wow aweome!
thx Dave, I'll checkout the info...
I wonder if it is time to look at Nokia's kit? does it rival HTC stuff?
If only that damned android google handset had a keyboard!

I don't think this site will ever do nokia stuff, HTC all the way...

One of two in my opinion:
HTC HD as mentioned above, or Sony-Ericsson Xperia X1. Both have hardware keyboards and WVGA screens. Samsung Omnia is pretty good bang for your buck too, pity it doesn't have a hw keyboard. Nokia's new N96 is interesting, but I would never move away from WinMob, besides, where would you find support like here at XDA?

you speak truth mackjam ;-)
I am in for winmob all the way - sighing and all!!!
cheers

The HTC Touch HD does not have any hardware keyboard though...

My apologies, it doesn't have a hardware keyboard. I was thinking of the Google phone, which is also an HTC device.

Jitterbug?

my only real problems with my kaiser is viability in sunlight my boss laughs at me when he sees me running for shade so i can see whats on my screen, and the material the phone is made out of imo they should have made the entire phone out of the scratch resistant material the back is made out of.
If they were able to make a phone that fixes both of those problems I'd be happy to replace my kaiser with it.

A proper successor maintains or improves:
o the tri-band UMTS (Raphael does not, iirc)
o the keyboard (Touch HD does not)
o has the HTC P4xxx numbering scheme
Anything else?

jitterbug? is that an htc rig?
or somet else?

The Jitterbug is a the wave of the future!!

I'm planning on holding out for an android based phone. A year from now android will be much more mature and hopefully have some excellent phones running it.

Same here as far as android development is concerned.

(I love the big red and green buttons that say yes and no)

I am a fan of the TouchPro (AT&T Fuze) and eagerly await its release...
Still waiting...

lol @ jitterbug - reminds me of my 3 yr old kids 'my first fone'!

Oh ok
Too bad the G1 (HTC Dream = Google Phone) is not as sexy as the other HTC phones...

i changed my mind.... i didn,t know the htc dream had a qwerty!!!
I may change my mind - depending on results of the OS....
I wonder if there will be plugins to be able to monitor my adwords on the fly!!!!

Wts fuze / touch pro, ***look***

***PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK IF YOU VIEW***I know most of you on here know all ths stuff already, but this is my post i'm broadcasting on the various forums i am a part of. anyone that is interested, don't hesitate to pM or post, this is no joke or scam or anything, just trying to get this thing gone. don't be afraid to offer, whats the worse that could happen?***
This is one of AT&T's flagship phones. In my opinion, this is the best phone available one the market today, beating the Xperia X1, iPhone, etc.
I've always been a phone freak, and I do EXTENSIVE research before purchasing a new one. I've been dealing with HTC phones for over 3 years now, and I've never had a desire to go with another company. I love windows mobile and all the cool things you can do with it. The list of programs and applications is endless.
The phone has a GPS receiver built right into it, and I loaded TomTom 7 on it, making it a fully functional GPS unit. It also features a 3.2MP camera with a super bright flash, built in FM tuner, business card reader, mp3 player, picture and video viewer, and lots of other great things. Windows Mobile 6.1 works flawlessly on this phone, thanks to the OEM HTC ROM I flashed on this FUZE, essentially making it a HTC Touch Pro.
The new Touch Flo 3D interface is something to behold. This phone is absolutely beautiful, from it's high resolution VGA screen to its "diamond cut body" and perfect form factor.
I bought this phone for over $500, and I have to say, it was worth every penny. I'm selling it cheap, so don't miss out on this sweet oppurtunity. Thanks alot for reading, and happy buying.
Please no low balls, I'd prefer cash but may consider trades. I accept paypal and money orders. Due to my low feedback, I will work with you as far as shipping arrangements go. I will provide contact information upon payment, and provide confirmation numbers and information upon receiving.
Pictures!

Why would you sell if you love it this mutch? Dunno if this forum is designed for selling Phones.

i need cash quick.. got in a pretty bad car accident and I have zero transportation, gotta pay my car insurance. I bought a piece of **** car for $300, and i don't think it would be cool to have a cell phone that is worth more than my car.

whoops.... good catch, thanks man

personally,
I am in London atm,
I got the touch pro,
I like it but it is too slow,
the performance just loses against other phones..well, not the price!
it is a great phone none the less, but would really prefer a blackberry tbh...

Seeking worthy successor to Tilt

Contract w/ ATT up in June, any suggestions / rumors for a good replacement? Prefer HTC, maybe others? I want at least the functionality of the Tilt, and then some. Maybe WM7 based? I like newer stuff and don't mind tweaking, actually insist on some tweak-ability http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

I would go with the Pro2. It has the tilting screen that the Touch Pro didn't, and this time in WVGA. It will be released with 6.1, but will be upgradable to 6.5. In theory, it will be upgradable to WinMo 7 too, but only time will tell. The worst that could happen is you could have to flash a custom WM7 ROM. If you buy the Unlocked version from a place like Expansys-USA, I am expecting a price tag of at least $750. Check out this and this.

Tx Dave, this baby is sweet!

Yes the TILT 2 or TILT PRO is what I've been waiting for.

You know AT&T is going to fsck up the keyboard.

Unless something better comes along -- I plan to get the Pro2 when my Kaiser dies (or when the prices for the Pro2 come down a bit )
I will sure miss all the buttons and the jog wheel though

*This* was my next phone before HTC unveiled the TP II , now we will have to compare.

I know that T-Mobile will supposedly be getting the touch pro 2, but have we heard anything about at&t even getting it?

If my sources are correct, it is extremely likely that AT&T will get this, I believe by December. However, they will probably ruin it as usual with trial applications, junk shortcuts to their services, and they will most likely ruin the keyboard, etc. This is why I'm just gonna save up, pay more to buy it unlocked and bypass AT&T entirely.
Dave

I love it when people say "if my sources are correct"

I gave away my tilt to my friend and got myself a iPhone 3G last week... Boy what a improvement... Also try blackberry bold, that thing is a beast as well...

According to my sauces, it will be called the Barium ( as in Barium enema ) and yes, it will include the great AT$T keyboard.

Your one of those kids that wants everyone to do everything for him arent you?
Just lke this kid I had come in the shop the other day.
I work in a game store and do console repairs.
I charge $50 to fix 360's which I feel is pretty reasonable considering the work, and the fact that I get it done overnight.
Kid comes in and asks me how much. I say $50. He then goes into how he knows how to do it but doesnt want to be bothered with getting the tools or materials needed and to cut him a break. I ask how much of a break. He says, Look, can you just fix it for me since I dont want to.
I laughed in his face and asked my co-workers if it was a joke.

Game Gripper

I bought the EVO Shift in part because I wanted to play emulated games. A company called Game Gripper makes these pretty cool attachments to use with physical keyboards. It is basically a button overlay that is shaped and functions like a console controller. I put a picture of one below. They have gotten pretty good reviews. If you are interested in the attachment you should head over to the Game Gripper website and put in a request. I don't know how many requests they need before they produce a Game Gripper but the more they get the better the chances they will produce one. The EVO Shift is actually listed on their request form so maybe they are developing or getting ready to develop one already. You don't even have to enter your email or anything.

Looks like they won't need to make phone specific versions anymore.
^ Shift Faced

Wow, that's cool. The only turn off for me would be the normal one is $15 and that one is around $50. I would definitly be interested in it if I didn't have a keyboard though.

True. But you wouldn't have to buy a new one if you got a new phone. I like that.
^ Shift Faced

But I'd much rather have a cheaper piece that just snaps on to the keyboard, then it doesn't require an app/having the bluetooth radio on. Emulators burn enough battery as is.

I put in a request for this this morning before even seeing this post. Looks like great minds think alike. I came from the EVO just so I could have a keyboard for emulated games...

I sent a request for it a while ago and they told me to keep checking that it would become available at some point.

Anyone have an update at all on this? I am dying to get a game gripper on my phone.

I just got a shift, coming from a Samsung Moment, and was trying to remember what the company was called making these. I don't think it took long for when they had the Samsung Moment request form up and when they started to make them.

I was looking at these earlier this week (I fell in love with psx4droid) and there is probubly no chance they're going to make one of these for the shift. I mean common, this isn't the most popular phone, I wish it was though.
Btw the emulators gensoid, n64iod, gameboid, every ____oid have all been removed from the market, but they are FREE on the slideme appstore. Don't worry they were put on by the dev, not pirated.
Pls click 'thank' if this helped!!
No I'm not using Tapatalk... I'm using the XDA Premium app, cause I got balls.

I have been using the Tiger emulators since they are free but allow you save states. They are still available.

I like the tiger ones better. And fpse is a far better ps emulator. Stuck with N64oid though.

Put in my request for one this would really be awesome.

Nice, hopefully they eventually make one for us. The Epic had one at this point in it's life cycle so we'll see.

Don't Think...
To my knowledge, when I play emulated games, it will only register 2 keys at once, I can push a third, but it doesn't do anything, even if I have it registered. I don't think a physical one is possible cause of this, but a bluetooth one (assuming we can find one that sends the correct frequency for those still stuck on the gb update) would work just fine.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, I may just have a faulty unit, or there is something we can do like the epic users did to stop them from dropping keys when they typed too fast, that might help us here is I'm not the only one with this problem.
