Guest Paul [MVP] Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 There are lots of interesting things in the press release, particularly 'To provide the processing horsepower needed for the Mio 8380's amazing range of capabilities, it utilizes Intel's mobility- and network-optimized Xscale CPU.' P
Guest sebset Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 "Compliance with the Java MIDP 2.0 specification" what does it mean??? smartphone 2002 become java compliant? :shock:
Guest neuronisis Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 Paul, what do you think the likely processor speed of this BAD BOY will be? 8)
Guest sebset Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 I think 200Mhz as for the Intel concept design showed at 3GSM World Congress last week.
Guest Firaas Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 Java MIDP 2.0 Final Specification is available from http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/...s/final/jsr118/
Guest sebset Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 What's the max size of resolution for a 110-kilopixel cam? 358x288 pixels?
Guest Firaas Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 352 x 288 = 0.1 megapixel = 104,857 (105kp)...
Guest sebset Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 Do you think this phone could be the SPV III ?

Guest Firaas Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 OOO! That is a nice design. GD87/GX10 competitor methinks...
Guest casper508 Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 Looks really cool. But i have to admit, when i saw the topic i thought it was some new Chinese takeaway in Norwich :) .

Guest Firaas Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 It has a decent screen too :) Totally rules the SPV except for camera - 110kpixels is a shame, our SPV's come with 300kpixel cameras.
Guest neuronisis Posted March 1, 2003 Report Posted March 1, 2003 Yeah, i'm definitely gonna need one of these!
Guest sebset Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 pay attention to battery/size/times yes, it may be a little bit excessive :? To my opinion, the Mitac has the same size as the Sony Ericsson Z1010 (click here to compare) because they have both a 2.2" screen and a memory card slot. But anyway, clamshell with integrated camera will help smartphone to become more popular. Vodafone sold more than 200.000 clamshell GD87 and GX10 since end of 2002 ;) Moreover clamshell design is very popular in Asia. Now, let's wait for the next devices announced by Intel, Asustek and TCL-Legend ! :)
Guest RCAM Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 I am happy with my SPV. I don't think I want a flip phone like this. The only real advantages are: * Built-In Camera * Caller-ID on the outside Disadvantages: - Battery Life - You have to flip it open, over time it would break. - Camera Res
Guest Chris b.a.r.f. Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 Nice hinges. *Real* cast-iron, do you think?
Guest Thurstan Posted March 2, 2003 Report Posted March 2, 2003 Yeah looks ok but I can't be doing with flip-phones, they're rubbish.
Guest Myke Posted March 3, 2003 Report Posted March 3, 2003 yeah ive never been a fan of the flip phones.. i like seeing the entire screen when i take it out of my pocket. especially when my phone *COUGH* display a contacts photo when they are calling you!
Guest Chris b.a.r.f. Posted March 3, 2003 Report Posted March 3, 2003 nasty cough you have there Myke :)
Guest spacemonkey Posted March 10, 2003 Report Posted March 10, 2003 Here's another article about this phone... (nice pics on page 2 and 3) http://www.infosyncworld.com/news/n/3197.html
