Du skulle ikke vide om den har Dansk xT9, eller om det er muligt at tilføje den?

Er ligeglad med dansk menu, men dansk ordbog er et must, og hvis det kan tilføjes vil jeg også få fat i en fra England eller Tyskland :D

Hey Ampf....

Nope I dont know if I can flash the xT9 and the Danish one is not onboard....

If you happen to find a way of adding Danish xT9 to the Asus P750 when you get it, please let me know :D

Also, what is that Russian site you are speaking of?

hey alex,

I got the p750 for nearly 2 months now and I'm really happy with it!

but do u know if there is a usb host or do u know if a usb host can be supported?

I have the Touch Cruise and love it - its a keeper!

I had the iPAQ, not for me though, because of the size and builtquality and bluetoothstack.

I´m waiting for the ASUS to arrive next week from Germany - and I´ll tell you what I think when it arrives! I have to flash to WWE, but thx to the Russian site its no problem.

Could you be a little more specific?

Size? is it too big too small, weight too much?

Buildquality? it looks plasticy which is one of my concerns...

bluetoothstack? what on earth is that...

Flash to WWE??? no idea....

Thanks...

The hardware lock switch really sells it to me. I can't understand why other PDAs don't do this.

It's all very well having a software lock, but when my PDA alarm rings in my pocket, the device wakes up so the screen and buttons are available for pushing. And it's very easy for my leg to inadvertently cancel the alarm, or do some other unexpected task (such as keep the PDA awake ad infinitum, now it's on).

That goes for all the WM devices I've had. It's such an obvious design flaw.

I think I'm gonna get a P750.

Actually this also has negative point.

The hardware lock switch has been introduced to lock the Xt9 keypad.. There no other way to lock your Xt9 keypad other than hardware switch... Even if you install a WM device lock application .. or lock your device using device lock tab on WM touch screen..Your device will always wake up when keys are pressed accidently... if you dont use Hardware switch.. Now thats very expensive battery drain.

Asus said They said the lever can withstand 10,000 slides

Let me do a calculation :

Let say we use the lever to lock the device 20 times a day (I definitely use it that frequently!),

10,000 slides / 20 slides per day = 500 days

500 days = 16.67 months = 1 year 5 months.

So Asus expect us to change the lever after every 1.5 year?

Such a short life-span is hardly justifiable for a function that's accessed many times a day. I can attest to that I definitely use the device lock more than 20 times a day.

A software device lock shouldn't be that expensive or troublesome to include in a ROM update. What's even better is if they could put it as a menu item so people who personalize their today screen can include that as a button somewhere else (and not have it stuck at the bottom right) so that it can be accessed easily by using the joystick or scroll wheel (and don't have to necessarily tap on the screen to lock the device).

Asus thought of giving people multiple options when it comes to navigating the device with the joystick, the touch screen and the scroll wheel to cater to different users, that shows that they are indeed thoughtful and customer centric. Including a software device lock is about giving users options like that as well. I believe that they will eventually see that an option like that would cater to different users.

There is no software I can think which locks T9 keypad, my device lock on today screen does lock all other four navigation keys on my Ipaq 6828.. only power on button at the very top of device wakes it up.. the lack of this technology to lock T9 keypads is making ASUS reluctant to actually put device lock funtion on today screen, cos if it dosent lock entire kepad than its useless.

The iPAQ is just a little too big, and it looks like a toy plasticphone.

Have compared differnent phones HERE

Its the bluetooth that doesent work with ANY of my 3 headsets and the builtincar bluetooth.

Flashing is putting the WWE World Wide English on it instead of the German version, my P750 currentlyin DHLDenmark`s storage right now because of easter....

Thanks joost... Have you had any of the 2G/3G connection problems where you have to reset the phone?

That question also goes to Nedge... have you been able to get around this problem yet??? Can't see that there's an update firmware version on the HP site.

Also how often does it happen? once a day... once a month??

thanks in advance...

P.S. Nedge... having had the P750 for longer now... what would you say are the main drawbacks?

Questions for you nedge (I think this could really replace my kaiser?)

- Does CamerAware 3 work fully with Navizon on it (i.e. log cells and APs)

- Does the camera work with Palringo?

- What is the maximum video capture res?

- Does it have a flash?

- I read somewhere (I think, my russian ain't great!) that CoolCamera works on the P750! Have you tried?

- What are the pics like?

- Does the camera app open instantly?

- Can the T9 keep up with fast typing?

- Does the T9 remember custom words properly?

Muchos gracias :D
