Guest Zim Posted February 21, 2006 Report Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) Well its about that time of the year again, where i look at my phone, and say hey.. i want something different.. last year was the crazy neonode phone.. that phone rocked.. crashed more times then i had calls, but had try ultra cool factor... and now a year a later i am looking for something else.. something different..not the usual windows mobile, phone, maybe a CE.Net powered or a unique phone like the mpx300, [mpx] always wanted one of them.. yea yea i know its under powered and has loads of issues but dude, flip both ways.. waaaaayyy cool.. now normally i would be up in the f/s section looking for a bargain.. but since its become and ebay thing kinda lost its appeal.. i now have to compete with lawd knows how many people for the phone. was so much easy with one seller a few interested buyer, few pms of haggling, and happy people... now i understand this measure was taking to protect some modaco users, but for those who genuinely used it, we are at loose end, confined to the endless bidding on ebay.. just seems a bit unfair..but hey such is life.. anyway i hope that we get the f/s section the way it was...just prefer buying from people i know.. or have met from these forums.. [yeah some may say its the same with an ebay auction - but over here it just seems to have a more personal feel to it...] anyway back to subject at hand.. anyone have a truley diffenent windows powered phone that they would recommend? Thanks "Z" sorry for the lil runt POST EDITED PER FORUM RULES Edited February 21, 2006 by Zim
Guest chucky.egg Posted February 21, 2006 Report Posted February 21, 2006 Have you tried things like AuctionSniper? Saves getting caught in a bidding war. As for uber-cool phones. Nah. I love my Prophet, but it's not exactly "different", just more of what I already like.
Guest Zim Posted February 21, 2006 Report Posted February 21, 2006 hhmmmm...may try that... thanks for the heads-up... still hunting down a "different" phone...there must be one out there "z"

Thanks "Z" sorry for the lil runt ...know what you mean...I feel the same way... Anyway, I was in The Link the other day and they had a 'new' Motorola that I had not seen before...can't remember the model number, but... About the same size as a Nokia N70 Candy bar format...but... Key Pad lifts up to reveal full touch screen PDA display ...and... Has built in GPS with CoPilot Maps... Thought it was interesting... Cheers Nick

Guest Zim Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 Post edited? any reason why? though i cant even remember what i worte must have really really bad so be removed.. lol anyway got my vario, i am happy for now... me goes and read modaco rules now.. Zim
Guest Pondrew Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 Forum rules are that the only buying or selling allowed on MoDaCo is in the Ebay sales section and anyone asking for offers or asking if someone has a device for sale has their post removed. Without repeating the breach of rules I can tell you that the bit removed fell into one of those two categories... ;)
Guest Zim Posted March 16, 2006 Report Posted March 16, 2006 Ahh that would be a reason then, couldnt find a link to the rules would make an interesting read. would be nice to know when it does get updated, and when amendments are made.. ZIm
