Guest kittenlou Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 :? Hi there, Im desperate to get a new smartphone, Im still using a SPVE100 which Ive had for over a year now. Ive been holding out for the new SPV C500 phone which I believe is available now (apart from orange direct??!!) Anyway, Ive been reading your reviews and its sounds fab but then I made the mistake of reading other phone reviews and now Im all confused. :roll: Im a bit of a gadget queen and even though I dont actually need all the fancy whistles and bells I do luuuvvve them!! I love the look of a PDA but then I do love my old SPVE100...................... Should I go for the C500 or Treo 600 or even Motorola MPX200 (MPX looks fab!! but we wont go there!!! :wink: ) Any advice will be very appreciated, thank you very much!! Kie
Guest Monolithix [MVP] Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 MPX200 is a bit old now in terms of spec, the 220 will be out by the end of the year, but it's ugly :) C500 is the best available at the moment, nippy cpu and WM2003SE...
Guest pwest13 Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 but monothlix i didnt think there was muhc difference between WM2003 and WM2003SE ? besides aint it 2004 ? :)
Guest MECX Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 psssht MPX220 UGLY i think not :) MPX200 is great with the WM2003 (super moto) upgrade--still go for the c500 tho coz the MPX220 is probs miles from being sold. P.S Glad to see another female on the site, your quite rare you know :P
Guest squall Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 mpx220 is super huge. and shes not rare, almost 1 in 2 people are like her! Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest MECX Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 Im obviously hanging around the wrong places mate (like here :-D) I swear i saw one of the other species in Norwich with a Windows mobile puffa jacket on :-D (note to self must stay off the alchohol)
Guest squall Posted August 18, 2004 Report Posted August 18, 2004 lol, disco stu by any chance?! Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest Pigo Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 I agree. VERY VERY few women take the interest to gagets. I've had my phone for half a year now, but my girlfriend still doesn't know how to handle it. the thing is they don't WANT to know how to do those things. they just want to call and text message.... and that's it. Pigo
Guest MECX Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 lol, disco stu by any chance?! Posted from my SmartPhone! could of been :-D (noot saying disco stu looks like a girl or anything)
Guest Samsonite Posted August 19, 2004 Report Posted August 19, 2004 keep it on topic boys!! The lady has asked for a bit o'help! Not a critique of various forummers fashion habits!! LOL I would say gadgeteering is not as male dominant a trait as many would think. My wife is right into the digicamara, phone and every other shiny brushed aluminium boxatrix i bring home from a saturday afternoon in town! As for an upgrade from your e100 - its time you changed no matter what... Your battery must be getting tired, you know the phone inside out back to front rah rah rah..... You're in the best place possible - you NEED a new toy rather than just WANT one.... I would say plump for the c500. You can get it now, its got the latest OS ( as far as the eye can see...) and unless you have access to the reeaaaly cool sh!t from Japan, it's gonna knock the snot out of any phone your contemporaries may have. Plus it's a sexy little thang with dimensions the others would need Atkins to reach... I've played on one in an O shop and i'm hurting to get one. I've had my e200 for about 6 weeks... d'oh!
Guest kalinte Posted August 20, 2004 Report Posted August 20, 2004 i say c500. fits pretty well for your slender lady fingers. although i'm still in love with my e-100, tough phone.
Guest tinks Posted August 21, 2004 Report Posted August 21, 2004 the thing is they don't WANT to know how to do those things. they just want to call and text message.... and that's it. Pigo Oooowwwhh!! Feeling quite hurt now. There're quite a few of us ladeez around who love playing with gadgets! Smartphone is the way to go!!
Guest MECX Posted August 22, 2004 Report Posted August 22, 2004 i think all the woman on the forum should be given free windows mobile puffa jackets, its in this season i swear :) Tinks i wouldent feel hurt there is always an exception to the rule and the ladies on this forum are just that, just look at the male to female ratio. Personally i think its a great thing more woman are posting here i wish my girlfriend wouldent mutter 'geek' everytime i snap open my MPX200. :P
Guest Coolbox Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Samsonite: You say that you played with the c500 in the shop....I have a question. I am planning to buy a new phone.....have spvclassic. :cry: Is it possible to play games on the c500.....I have seen and heard about the joystick being unfriendly for gaming?? Is that true??
Guest Samsonite Posted August 25, 2004 Report Posted August 25, 2004 Coolbox - the gaming thing is a known bug and all the details are kinda covered elsewhere on Modaco so have alook for those details. By playiing, i really meant held one for about 10 minutes trying to compare screens/speed/similarity/differences to my E200.... and it's better on pretty much all counts. The button/joystick thing is a bit odd to start with but even after 2 minutes is not something that you should be put off by. I'm not really a phone-gamer so i'm not a good person to quiz on that. I debated going for one striaght off but my in-contract upgrade fee would be huuuge right now so i was dragged away by my wife muttering about how unfair life was... i think i shall wait for about 6 moths and try again.. have alook at the threads for more indepth analysis on the phone but if i'd had a spare £150 in my pocket, i'd be on one right now... it is that good!
