also looking for a recomended pocket pc lol.

[Guest mikeeey]

hey i was thinkin about gettin a pocket pc cuz i like the big touch screen and the qwerty keyboard.

i was thinking something like the HTC Herms (Cingular 8525) or HTC Apache (Verizon XV6700), but i like the features the herms has more..

the features id want are:

Display

standard sized pocket pc screen (320x240 i think it is) like the herms or apache.

Memory and Storage

atleast 64mb of rom and 64mb of ram, but preferably more ram and/or rom.

i just got a ultra II mini sd card and really wanted something that takes mini cards, not micro, but go ahead and list some phones that take micro anyway.

Audio

(loudspeaker) Anything that u guys thinks sounds good, clear, and loud, and preferably stereo.

2.5mm or 3.5mm output... as long as it has one.

CPU and misc

WM5

atleast a 400MHz processor.

preferably a 2.0 megapixel camera and flash

slide out qwerty keybord.

able to be used in the US if it was unlocked (the GSM band) [thats very important for me lol]

5-way joysticks are ok but if u guys know a pocket pc with a 9-way joystick il be happy.

usb mini slot (just about everything has that)

a pocket pc that most programs will work on. not one with a different sized screen or somethin that isnt compatible with everything

internet and connecting

wifi

bluetooth

i dont know too much about 3G or wat it is. is it in the US? does it cost money?

So you already know you have just described the Hermes...

ok. wat does the sound and music sound like on loudspeaker compared to a smartphone like... an sda, qtek 8310, spv500, etc...

does it have stereo speakers or 1 mono?

and how well is the camera at night or in the dark? my sda's camera sucks in the dark.

and is there any difference between the htc herms and the cingular 8525? i know the cingular 8525 is the same as hermes but no front camera and video calls? its not that much of a loss if i got the cingular one is it? or is there more that it doesnt have?
