Guest emyllis Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 http://technology.guardian.co.uk/weekly/st...1654071,00.html A review in the guardian (a broadsheet left wing newspaper) of the C600 - which says it's good but not amazing basically, and people on C550 don't need to rush out and upgrade. Is this the first time a UK newspaper has reviewed the C600? We must be near launch "d-day" then!
Guest Disco Stu Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 I posted about this earlier in the 'Orange, Why ?' thread but it merits better exposure. Ashley Norris has reviewed all of the SPV range so far so I respect his opinion even though it dampened my own hopes about the phone. He suggests waiting for the next release in the range (or something like that) but he's being optimistic if he thinks Orange will have it waiting just around the corner :D :) It's good to hear of another sandal-muncher at MoDaCo (and in Cov too) but you clearly haven't bought the paper edition recently. The editorial is about as left wing as Tony Blair and the format is now Berliner ;) Hope you like David Rees' cartoons in the IT section.
Guest gilesjuk Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Well they're kinda right. But it's not the first WM5 phone, I've had the SP5 for a while now. The C600 really did need a killer application, be it hardware or software. My SP5 without Wifi would have been really dull. There's little wow factor already, some of the apps are inferior, MSN fails to send sometimes and signing in can be troublesome.
Guest psionandy Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 Thanks for the link.... the last line is spot on Something better is just round the corner.
Guest peekie Posted December 1, 2005 Report Posted December 1, 2005 but orange claim it to be the first phone with wm5 even though its not :)
Guest byron_hinson Posted December 3, 2005 Report Posted December 3, 2005 but orange claim it to be the first phone with wm5 even though its not :) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well I've had the C600 for just over a week now and personally I think its excellent, if you like Smartphones this is one of the probably the best one there is.
