Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Just because it is a HTC produced device doesnt automatically mean it will be terrible (take a look at the iPaq range for example). A lot of the software enhancements and tweaks come down to the carrier or Motorola themselves, in this case. The design is growing on me now, but i'm still put off by the internal SD.

Don't get me wrong, wasn't saying HTC making MotoSmart phones would be a bad thing, was just responding to the suggestion that the MPX100 was one.

I'm sure you're right, all Memory Stick Duos come with an adapter to fit into regular Memory Stick slots, so I'm sure these will too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kyrkesmith Posted May 31, 2004 Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 To follow up what I said earlier, SanDisk's website states: The SanDisk miniSD card includes an adapter that converts the miniSD card into a full size SD card to be used with the growing number of SD compatible devices available in the market.

Guest kl1wdr Posted June 7, 2004 Report Share Posted June 7, 2004 how do you think the action key would work? That may be difficult to hit right in the middle if it also rocks side to side.Nope....it is easy to use...not more difficult than the e200-joystick... Any info on if the MPx220 uses it? Yes, it uses MiniSD too... :x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bommer Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 as a newe time buyer of smartphones which should i get the spv c500 or the MPx-220 ! the spv looks a bit rough but which is better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kyrkesmith Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 I think they're going to turn out about the same in terms of performance. However the only noticable difference in features is the camera. The MPx220 has a 1.2 Megapixel camera with flash; the C500 a 0.3 Megapixel without flash. Also check out my comparison pic here. I wouldn't let the camera make up my mind (although I will almost certainly be getting the MPx220), but rather make a decision based on which form factor you prefer, and also what users say when the phones come out. It's worth noting that the Motorola's MPx200 is of a much better build quality than any of the SPV series so far (in my opinion). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest akarno Posted June 27, 2004 Report Share Posted June 27, 2004 I Really like the look of the C500 and the MPX220. But I have a problem. I sync up my (Original)SPV with my computer at work. At work all the USB ports are disabled, but they allow devices that connect via a serial port. A serial cable is available for the original SPV, which I have, and I think the E200, but none of the new Smartphones, about to be released, seem to support serial cables. Does anyone have a solution, or am I destined to keep my original SPV which will be 2 years old this November :cry: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
