Guest www.msmobiles.com Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 "]the device itself exposes the DUN BlueTooth profile, allowing you to connect to the internet from other devices via the phone. BlueTooth ActiveSync is of course supported. Question: is it possible to use DUN from E200 in this way that E200 is not exposing but using DUN of other cell phone? For example: I have a USB Bluetooth dongle that exposes DUN so that devices can connect to it and use Internet of the PC (without ActiveSync). Example 2: I have Sony Ericsson phone with Bluetooth that exposes DUN and I would like to connect to Internet over this Sony Ericsson phone (with the other SIM card, not the one that is inside of E200). MS Smartphone as of now supports no Wi-Fi and passthrough in ActiveSync is not good enough (you don't get separate IP address then for smartphone), therefore I would need it - such feature as describe above - very much. Any ideas?
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 So you want to access the internet on the E200 using another device as the dial up? As far as I can work out, this isn't possible (via the UI anyhow). P
Guest Crispy Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 WOW, that ringtone rules! Indeed! ... long live sonic the hedgehog :wink: ... and a great review Paul :lol: BTW: How well does the NES/SNES/GBC emulators perform on it?
Guest Pagemakers Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Paul in a previous posting I thought you said using BT you could connect to your PC and use its broadband connection to connect to the net with your phone. You can do that cant you? Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest Shuflie Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Does the E200 support voice dialing and if not can you use fonix voice dial with it?
Guest Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 A colleague pointed out the review of the E200. Very detailed. I noticed one inaccuracy - the point about the hardkey only starting the camera and not the voice recorder... If you long press on the key you should find that it does load the voice recorder. The intention was to add functionality without disabling already useful features - namely voice recording. Cheers, Dom.
Guest Pagemakers Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Paul on the Orange home screen will the alarm status show the alarm time when an alarm is set or does it just say "on". If you click the alarm time does it open the alarm program or is it just a display? What on earth are those icons next to the web links on the home screen? They look like medieval helmets! Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest statscat Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 LOL medieval helmets....... you will be able to remove them at a guess by taking the icon="" argument out of the xml, so panic not (well hopefully htey made that improvement or another similar one ......... or maybe there is a better icon) Do appointments show on the homescreen, is it the normal one (although I guess its not as I don't think you can hide that plugin ...... maybe Orange were nice and made it hideable ............. you know u want to try it). Also any more details on the dynamic spacer that sounds really cool and innovative, allowing autoheight plugins to pop in and out whilst keeping things in place, no more jumping homescreens !!!!!!!! I so can't wait to see what midnight is going to come up with when he gets to grips with this new plugin. (or is it plugins .....)
Guest merydian Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Hi there! What about the MSN Messenger issue? in a previous review, Paul, you stated it works fine, but in some oether reviews I've read about the problem of the new protocol used by messenger, which is something that, according to microsoft, should be fixed by the manifacturers. What's true? Should I believe HTC's already fixed that ? regards, /Diego
Guest midnight Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 I so can't wait to see what midnight is going to come up with when he gets to grips with this new plugin. (or is it plugins .....) i've already looked at the xml for this plugin and it does seem pretty neat, if it can do what i want it to do then it will change the way we think about homescreens :lol: (now i just need to get my hands on an e200)

The icons are little globes and road-sign type things... P

Guest stu_lowe2003 Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Hey Paul Love that Sonic ringtone, sounds excellent. Was a kind of coincidence you mentioned Sonic, as i was playing sonic at that very moment. See below: Stu

Guest Gnuig Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Paul -> Thanks for the great review! 8) I have ordered the new SPV E200 with Orange contract here in Denmark, and can't wait to receive it later this week. I am very pleased to hear about all the added software already installed. I have actually downloaded most of the freeware that I could find for the SPV, yet after your review see no real reason to rush out and install a lot of 'not so good' 3rd party software. But I would like to ask (as an SPV newbee :wink: )... what software would you recommend installing additionally? I think I may (also) install some sort of divx player, since I love the fact I would be able to play some of my dvd material. Very cool! Thanks again... Cheers, Gnuig
Guest Brody Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Where did you get that? Hacked N-gage :wink: I don't think thats a hacked N-Gage as it says 1991! I'd imagine its an emulator!
Guest sabio_proeliat Posted November 16, 2003 Report Posted November 16, 2003 Hehe take it cool :lol: I thought so to I was just kidding. That's way I used the :wink: symbol ;)

Guest Goutetsuu Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 hi Paul,you said the phone had fullmidi support, does that mean the quality is better? If so, how does it compare to Nokia (poor quality ringer sound), Samsungs (good) and SE T610(very good) phones?
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 Paul to complete my question above if you click the alarm time does it open the alarm setting program? Posted from my SmartPhone! It does indeed! P
