I would suggest either the Asus P750 or the HP iPaq 614c (I can vouch for the iPaq as being an excellent device plus mine is upgraded to WM 6.1). Neither of these devices have slide out keyboards (but do have hardware keyboards) but similar specs to the Touch Dual.

I got my 3 year old son to say certain phrases using Voice notes, and recorded them to playback for certain events.

I've got:-

"Email Daddy"
"Text Message Daddy"
"Reminder Daddy"
"Voicemail Daddy"

and for my alarm: "Wake up Daddy"

Unique for my phone, and personal to me so not worth sharing the files, so I guess it's the actual idea I'm sharing

its a 32 channel 32 hour constant use

Like I said in my post above yours, ignore me, I read the OP incorrectly, and indeed the Niki doesn't have a photo

I can't help much, but...


4) HSDPA is high speed 3G, so you probably do have to pay for using it (depends on your mobile tariff). Your current SIM may well be able to access it, if not your network will probably sell/give you a new SIM. PAYG data charges tend to be higher (in the UK at least), be careful as it's easy to run up LARGE bills for data use. It'll also drain your battery faster.

It does, it's just not very obvious

So, what's going on? Are business renewals trying it on?

Hi all,

Just been playing with my Orange (now mainly de-oranged) Touch Dual, have to say it's the most impressive phone I've ever bought.. hoever I've got a few questions if anyone knows how to tweak these settings :-

1) How can I increase the timeout for the keypad backlight? It seems to be set at 10 Seconds, I find it mega annoying if you're texting in the pitch dark (heehee) and the keypad totally disappears, be better if it was 1 min or so.

2) Have Microsoft done away with having scripts for things like SMS notifications, on my old SPV 550 I had it set something like av3pw60v1pw300v1pw900v1p so if I missed the text in my pocket I'd get "reminder" ones 1, 5 and 15 minutes later.. this seems to be missing in the registry now? I've tried re-creating the SMS key and putting the values in but they seem to get ignored.

3) Where's/Is it an XML file to control the home screen layout? The XP Theme is good but a little grey for my liking, ideally I want the LCD-Style clock in a retro bright Red, and possibly even have say the Email/SMS/Missed calls counters in yellow, is this customisable?

4) HSDPA, I take it this is a comms channel that goes through the provider i.e. I'd have to pay for traffic? Is this a 3G thing or will could I get it through my Pay-As-You-Scrub SIM I'm still using?

Any help or advice on any of the above appreciated!

Cheers,

Rob

Thanks

Will give it a go

Any idea of the cost?

Also, how will it sit practically in the device - will it be sticking out of the side? Someone mentioned an antenna being really small - wondering where this antenna will actually be on the handset?

Just received my Touch Dual and am very very impressed. Wasn't sure I'd be a convert after my Vox, but wey hey, this is great!

However, I really want a destop cradle/charger and can't seem to find any on Google searches ... anyone out there found a UK compatible one??

M.

They have them in stores but customer service will be a couple of days.

Definitely not the same price...

They wanted to charge me £120 (AFTER my upgrade allowance) for the Vario III but I'm getting the Touch Plus for free.

OK, have spoken to business support who can't see it. Then phoned the number in this thread and they eventually looked for the Plus when I said that I had a friend that got the Plus and she found it, said it was released and said it was out of stock. The saga continues....

i'm in oxford st t-mobile shop and they have touch plus advertised. for all flext under 35 squid it costs 69. for flext 35 and above it is free.

I upgraded to this on T-Mob on Saturday despite them not having any in and was told that they are still expecting them at any time - should be by the end of the month.

They'd better hurry up - I want my new phone

Am I dreaming?
