Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 No, I haven't heard of them either, but Russian site Smape.com have an English review of the HTC Touch Dual online (20 key version)! The review is extremely detailed with a ton of pictures and it's well worth a read... so head on over! While you're there, you might also be interested in the Mio A702 review, the HTC Shift preview or the Eten X800 preview. Yowza! ;) P
Guest floc_ Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 Some of the countries will receive shipments of a particular version of the device that supports Wi-Fi. uhm ;)
Guest Helix Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 All the Touch Dual needs is GPS and it would be an awesome handset.
Guest floc_ Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 And WiFi obviously ;) P for me wi-fi is crucial. In italy we haven't real flat data plans even for corporate, feed for hsdpa and umts are really expensive at 0,06 euro for KB. And one of major flavour in winmobile is the possibility to take part of a lan with shared resources like fileserver, mailserver... Impossible without wi-fi
Guest creamhackered Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 Stupid it doesn't have wifi! Where are the reviews of the 9 key version though? I hate double letters on keys like the crappy small Blackberrys, it's terrible trying to write with it!
Guest J273 Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 All the Touch Dual needs is GPS and it would be an awesome handset. Im hoping this could be enabled with it having the same chipset as the kaiser...i think it depends upon the antenna within the phone. I heard over on hofo it has the GPS panel within the registry.
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 6, 2007 Report Posted October 6, 2007 GPS panel yes, for external GPS! P
Guest Helix Posted October 7, 2007 Report Posted October 7, 2007 Here's a thought... The Touch Dual - Smartphone or Pocket PC??? This is one of the reasons I'm so interested in the Touch Dual, it has aspects of both. I actually believe it gets somewhere close to combining the two form factors as well. Just why oh why did it not come with GPS - the lack of which is maintaing my desire for a kaiser.
Guest ero69 Posted October 10, 2007 Report Posted October 10, 2007 QUOTE(smape.com)Some of the countries will receive shipments of a particular version of the device that supports Wi-Fi. uhm ;) Don't know how credible their info is.... also states the following: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS 850/1900/2100 Nowhere have I seen that the phone is quadband GSM and triband UMTS. I'm actually hoping that their info is correct!!
Guest micaels Posted October 22, 2007 Report Posted October 22, 2007 No wifi no touch dual for me. It's as simple as that. Two years a month im in the US and I can't afford the roaming fees for data over there.
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 24, 2007 Report Posted October 24, 2007 Exactly, I use WiFi most when out of the country, so removing it is a bit of a killer blow. Or, means I take a different handset abroad ;) P
