  2. The wildfire is nice but Android (and particularly sense) are ruined with that low resolution. A Hero would be a better bet even though it is an 'older' device.

    Still can't fault the Blade for value. Still going to get another Nokia but it will be in addition to the Blade rather than replacing it.


  3. No probs, does look a decent phone. 3.5" screen which is same as iPhone 4. 800x480 resolution, so stuff should be crisp on screen. Wi-Fi connectivity etc.

    Also available in white.

    Agreed, the resolution isn't pretty on the Wildfire, which is a shame and a surprise when you consider that this San Francisco/Blade device has a better resolution and larger screen for less £.
  4. @iTem Icm also sure somebody will attempt to port Sense to the Blads. Developers are already going mad with it. the clock and weather widgets are already available via a quick hack and many of the other widgets can be had from the market. I got the HTC keyboard installed last night.

  8. Windows Phone 7 owns Android,

    I was playing with it at the phone shop today and the interface is really something else, really clean and ultra modern not a clone of the iOS like every other smartphone out there. It's amazing that MS has actually managed to out Apple Apple! and actually bring something innovative to the market.

    It's definitely the most impressive smartphone OS at launch, far more complete than Android was at launch and even the original iPhone.






    I'm thinking of swapping my 3GS to a WP7 next year when my contract runs out, I don't like how the iPhone has become a phone for the masses.
  9. Looks like a great interface. I saw one the other day; are they possible to get on prepaid or at least outright and unlocked?

    The iPhone has become so popular that you know, once it was cool to have one - and I was the same with my original iPod touch, everyone thought it was great. That was about four months after they were originally released - and now it just doesn't seem like that great a thing to have.

    Nice interface perhaps. Little while to go yet before it's anywhere near complete though. Symbian is still the best OS for me. Sure it doesn't have an ultra glitzy interface but it can't be matched for sheer functionality.

    No system-wide file manager
    No videocalling
    No Bluetooth file transfers
    No USB mass storage mode******
    No multitasking ******
    No copy/paste*******
    Too dependent on Zune software for computer file management and syncing
    No music player equalisers
    No Flash or Silverlight support in the web browser
    No sign of free Bing maps Navigation so far
    No DivX/XviD video support
    No internet tethering support
    New ringtones available only through the Marketplace
    Swapping memory card requires hard reset; cards not readable by computer*******

    Yea, but if MS keep updating it (which they should given their size) it should be a solid contender in a few months. The iPhone didn't have most of those things at launch either.

    Sybian is like Windows Mobile which also had a terrible interface but could do pretty much anything and everything. However phones like that don't sell since they don't cater to the lowest common denominator like the current gen of smart phones do.

    40% market share says they do sell.
