nokia communicator

[ssaloon]

office pc ko naka XP pro running on a P3 700mhz processor with 128mb PC133 sdram... gapang!

[alwayz_yummy]

i'm a user of 9210 since it launched here...have mine with separate cam..frankly,i like it..

good memory for text storage,portable office..great for assign/reasearches in the lib..mine has no games installed(eats up alot of precious memory..)

but what i HATE about is:

1. software reformats(lots of bugs,v.4.13)-->P500-1000,di ko alam sa 9210i
2. power i.c. -->P3,000
3. internal ribbon-->P3,500
4. switch to turn of power from memory card(hot-swap)-->P500
5. casing:
a. front-->P1500
b. middle(folding side)-->P3000
c. back(battery side,including the connectors)-->P1500
d. strip to cover the bolts on the front cover-->P100,but got free kasi set ko pinalitan
now i will replace again:
1.internal ribbon-->P2800
2.keypad-->P300(9210 look),P1000++(9210i look)

i still keep it kasi:
1. di sa akin ito,sa mom ko ito,e...
2. like its feeling...easy to grasp
3. still saving for the 9500 communicator,pero kasi dami gastos ang bata,e..

just my thoughts:
if you have money to burn,patience(mabagal send,recieve,rebootprogram opening-->especially kung puno na) and computer/electronically literate,buy the communicator..otherwise get a less maintence pda phones..or if you want just get a bluetooth cellphone,separate pda..

maybe you want to consider 9500 its new from communicator series. it has wi-fi so during travel you don't have to bring your laptop to check e mail or surfing. its the very first phone to have wi-fi. also i assume that all problems from previous models are solved.

thanks guys im upgrading my other PC to XP, the 9210i was just given to me, beggars cant to be choosy right

the communicator now is with my wife since ok lang sa kanya dahil may bag siya so no problem with carrying it.

*always_yummy, you are right about the ribbon. parang sobrang rupok nya.

i was given a N9500 as a xmas gift. has some nifty features
although, the lack of predictive text while the lid is closed is
somewhat of hindrance.

need4speed, ok ah. napaka galante nung nag gift sa iyo nyan.....

I am contemplating between Nokia9500 or O2 Xda mini...for replacement of my old P800...

alin ang pipiliin nyo mga peeps at bakit??

nasira yung communicator ng boss ko... no outgoing calls... mukhang marami pang bugs

[stinkaboy]

imho lang...

the prices of the two phones are really miles apart. 7650 costs around 22-25k while 9210i costs around 35++k.

functions are also miles apart. while the 7650 is the first nokia multi media phone. hanggang dun lang ang functions nya save for some PDA-like functions. it also lacks the memory and is likely unexpandable.

yung 9210i is like a mini-PC (some call it as intelligent phones) dahil lahat nandun na. lahat ng pwede mong ikabit is pwede (including MP3 players, cameras, scanners, even printers, etc.) it can also do word processing, spreadsheets and other PC like applications.

if you have some money to spend, go for the 9210. make sure yung 9210i yung makuha mo and should have the warranty to go with it. if you look into the cellphone market, the price of the 7650 is going down, meaning, its on its way out dahil Nokia introduced new Multi-media capable phones in the market na (like the 6100, etc.) But the price of the 9210i remains stable.

nagulat ako sa price ng 7650 and n9210i, kala ko new thread hehehehhe...7650 ngayon is like 13k na lg, and i dont get to see n9210 na brand new except 2nd hand.

9500 -->moving parts(prone to wear and tear)lalo na pag matagal and laging bukas sara ang phone madali masira..good examples:7110,9210/9210i,7650

o2 Xda --> windows pocket pc....madalas magcrash..as usual of any pc windows...

well ako since communicator user ako..i know how to take care the communicator..kaya my vote is 9500...
