  1. Here's a few. :) by Ch_Omega · · Score: 1 · on The t68i Replacement is Here

    "How about a model that lets you chat via IRC? That one I'll buy for sure."

    Oh, that..
    Here's one irc-client for the Sony Ericsson P800, and here's one for the Series 60 UI(Nokia 7650/3650 & Siemens SX1).

  2. Series 60. by Ch_Omega · · Score: 2 · on Testing an Orange SPV 'Smartphone'

    The Nokia 7650 is in my opinon, the best of the currently available smartphones. It has a stable, open OS, with a nice gui, 4mb ram, internal VGA camera, and a nice display(which is big enough for most PDA-uses while small enough to be economical power-wise). Nokia are even suplying a free Series 60 SDK.

    The 3650, which internaly is a triband 7650 with an added MMC memory-expansion port, will be released early 2003, and are in my opinion the best approach for smartphones yet. Ofcourse, some ppl will argue that the Sony Ericson P800 is a better aproach, but in my opinion, it's a souped up PDA with phone functionality, not a true smartphone.

    Reviews of the nokia 7650 here, and previews of the Nokia 3650 and the Sony Ericsson P800.

    "As it supports both J2ME and it's own C++ based API's it can support anything you write for it, I'd be very supprised if both Go and Chess don't exisit for J2ME, and I know EPOC has Chess, which would not be hard to port over to Symbian 7."

    Actually, Series 60 is Symbian 6.1, not Symbian 7.

    ...And yes, there are lots of both Symbian software, and j2me aplications out there. :)
