Using the TyTN as a phone - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Hi all
I have read lots of reviews of the TyTN, and will be placing an order next week.
One thing I haven't seen though is a photo of one of these things against someone's head - you know, using it like a telephone :wink:
This would be my first non-candybar phone - currently using an Orange C500 (Typhoon), and I am slightly concerned about the size of the thing. I often see people on trains using phones like the Universal, and it does look like they are trying to hold a small laptop against their head!
Anyone able to oblige?

seeing as its size is comparable to that of the wizard - it may be quicker and easier to look for photos of that being used as a phone.

Haven't got a picture but I can assure you it's nothing like the Universal. I've got a wizard. Overall it isn't that much bigger than most candy bar phones. It sits comfortably in the hand so when you are making calls, it just looks like a regular phone.

I'll take a pic for you, but I have a giant head.

That'll be fine!
It'll pursuade me it isn't as big as it really is!

I've made the switch from BlueAngel to TyTN, and it is VASTLY SUPERIOR as a phone.
It is more comfortable in the hand, it has a much better speakerphone, it's as comfortable as just about any chocolate bar phone up against your ear... It also has outstanding Bluetooth headset clarity (both with my car kit and my earpiece). I don't own A2DP headphones, so I can't comment on their performance.
I can tell you that with the great speakphone and Bluetooth connectivity, I don't forsee myself holding the phone up to my ear very often...

I had my girlfriend pose instead.

What's Win CE 5 Pro plus? Looks V3ed and as said Minority Report'd and something else...looks good but with ARM11 (no particular implementation named nor any clock speed given) and 1GB of Memory + full SD card usability, a TV out and WiBro, it sure as heck l ooks like an interesting device.
Interestingly enough two d pad layouts on the slide out keyboard so I hope the screen is sufficent for navigation.
It's also 1,000,000 times better looking than the Wizard, very sexy if you ask me.
Plus T-DMB for digital TV on the go, very nice indeed.
WVGA in a screen that small is hard to believe....
Still, very cool device. Much thinner than a Wizard. I'd buy one in a minute except for the fact that there's no d-pad unless you extend the kbd. Do you suppose d-pad functionality is somehow encompassed by the two buttons on the top and bottom? It almost looks like one does left-right and the other does up-down. I wonder how softkeys work.....
If they put a phone in it it would be worth a look at, who whats to carry two devices when you can have one, I think somebody forgot the phone part.
Looks trick though.

Not exactly; it seems designed for VoIP so I wouldn't exactly expect a GSM/CDMA/UMTS transciever in it. WiBro seems to be in there for that exact purpose.

Best pocket pc in the market

Greetings to all,
Right now i have imate K-Jam, i wanted to buy a new pocket pc phone which has a good processor and a good battery life and if there is a keypad than it would be way better, can anybody suggest which one will be best.
help
Greetings to all,
Can somebody help me with buying new phone of the specifications i said,
because i do not want to suffer later.
Samy you might want to move this thread to a move sensible location, not development.
If you're buying a HTC now I'd buy a Hermes, and did. I suggest waiting post New Year for new products therefore better offers, but for cpu and functionality that's my pick.
I'd recommend considering the Eten GloJob and other brands too.

HTC Universal is the best for me, but only after many hours of tweaking.
It's really a personal choice, depending of what type of activities you do with your PPC, and what are your priorities.
¨that type of question is invalid for just about every product in the world
maybe apart from sand
if there was a best car, toothbrush, pda, computer.
and the compatition could not make something as good they would make something with different features to get to a different market where they had a chance to reach top dog
so it depend on
you want keyboard
you want umts
you want gps
you want vga
you want small size
you want ........

HTC Artemis???
back
Greetings,
sorry i have posted this in the wrong section,
Vijay, i have seen eten glofish, but i cannot find glojob.
Htc artemis has a slow processor.
thankyou all for reply
It is GloFish, not GloJob. It was a semi-homonym.

Maybe you were thinking of something else when you typed GloJob!

HTC X7500 (Advantage) –Reviewed-
If you think this device is too big for a phone or if you are the guy who told me its one-handed use is terrible, please stand up. You are dismissed. You may go now. Thank you for your time.
Now for the rest of you, my intent in this review is to focus on the X7500’s usability.
There are really only two things about this device that make it different from other Windows Mobile devices. It has an 8gb hardrive, and most importantly it has a 5 inch screen. This is one of the most significant changes we have seen in a Windows Mobile device. There have been lots of innovative changes made to converged devices, but few in the area of mobile computing. With the X7500 I like to call it “non-desktop computing” The 5 inch screen enhances the viewing capabilities of Windows Mobile by leaps and bounds, as I will show later with screen shots and pictures.
Before I get too far into this review I want thank Paul and Igor of SuperiorGadgets for putting the device in my hands for a few days so I could review it.
The complete review is posted here:

Excellent review! I agree with nearly everything you stated. Thanks.
I love the color. The only reason I could consider giving back my Dopod U1000...
Radio
What's the phone signal like on the u1000? I had a universal qtek 9000 and the phone signal was always weak. I finally stop using it. The u1000 would have to have a good signal.

Have you already dropped the X1??

Hi i know it's too early to talk about this but has any of you like me dropped the x1??
all because i used the p1i puche which is very large for x1 and it slips i did this twice the second time i threw the pouche out of the window.
So my advice dont ever use p1i pouche ....
Is that the one they recommend using?
no but i i thought it was the best. It looks very soft and professional... if you know a better one (from sony ericsson possibly) please tell me.
I'm waiting on the official Sony Ericsson ICE-40 classic pouch which I've heard fits perfectly. You can find it on eXpansys and most anywhere else on the net.
I'll try to remember to post a micro-review of it when i do get it...
I have th ICE-40 and it is not so great. The phone fits in too tight and when you try to get the phone out in a hurry like when receiving a call, you end up trying to pull the phone out with all your might. And if you're just trying to pull out the phone in general, you usaully end up pressing the power button at the same time, if you're right handed. Not to mention the clip has an edge which basically makes it like a slot so its, almost impossible to slip it to you pants without unzipping them. They designed the clip more for people who wear belts, so that the belt can just slide through the clip. Thinking about getting a generic case at the mall or something.
I use either one of these and that's it.

I did, just yesterday. Nothing happened, not even single scratch - and it fell from ca. 160 cm, on the corner. Well, the battery popped out, but that's all.

Havit SK466BT (bluetooth speaker) for 34.99 on amazon

Bluetooth speaker which is worth buying. HV-SK466BT is a small and fashionable designed Bluetooth speaker. Initially when you unwrap the box you cannot imagine how valuable this may perhaps be considering the price and it’s size.
The speaker comes with a 3.0 Bluetooth technology, this Bluetooth can be used for calling use as well, other than this for super quick and easy this phone supports NFC technology too.
The weight of this speaker is neither heavy nor very light and it’s small size allows you to carry this Bluetooth speaker anyplace you go, coming with a rubbery finish substance which gives you a good feel when you touch it plus protects it if dropped. It fell by mistake from me and was okay with no single scratch. This speaker has a good bass and extremely loud and clear sound quality which in this price range is not easy to get.
One of the best feature is the calling element, having an internal microphone it allows you to answer your phone calls too, so everyone can hear and talk. Last but not the least the battery life of this is phone is 7 to 8 hours which is more than at least what I expected.
