Good PDA Phone, any suggestions?

O2 Atom. Ok yan.

Stay away from the O2 Stealth. It is the most buggy phone we've owned. it's too hard to use the hardware keypad for SMS, halos impossible na. Bought it for my wife last November, instead of gawing main phone, naging backup phone nalang sya.

Most PDA Phones are not network locked. Wala yatang capability na mai-lock ang mga ito, so no problem on this part.

Just make sure na English version ang OS ng phone, unless ok lang sa inyo ang Chinese ang mga menus. Although pwede naman i-flash yung ROM (OS) to English or vice-versa, mawawala naman yung warranty if you did so.

Treo 750 is pretty good

mas mura pa pala dyan sa atin. malamang dyan na nga ako bumili. hmmmmmm.... so mukha lang maganda yung O2 Stealth? what about 02 atom? mas prefer kasi n mrs may keypad kasi text addict sya eh , yung di sana siya mahihirapan.
btw, may Blackberry ba sa atin?

btw, may Blackberry ba sa atin?

yes! in fact,i'm using a blackberry pearl, which is a pda phone. it's small and looks like an ordinary phone, very slick.

the only con about using a blackberry is that if you want to avail of the blackberry service, you have to pay extra on top of your monthly plan. but, if your wife's company has a company-provided blackberry service, then no problem. in this regard, it probably wouldn't make sense to get a blackberry phone without availing of the blackberry service. for the price of the unit, you could probably a non-blackberry phone with even better connectivity features (wifi, 36, hsdpa).

btw, there is now yahoo messenger and google talk for blackberry, which your wife can install and show off to her friends while she's in starbucks it's one of the most nakaka-aliw features of the bb pearl for me.


as for non-blackberry pdas, i highly recommend the treo 650, which is what i've been using the past year or so. you can probably get the treo 680 (a minor upgrade to the 650) for a lower price than getting a brand new 650.

i'd recommend sana Dopod 900.. the most complete PDA's i've used.. categorized na nga as sub-notebook sa tindi ng features.. but since it's for the wifey baka hindi bumagay kasi malaki.. pero kung techie siya for sure swak yun..
