I have a Samsung i600. It has a 220Mhz processor (not 400Mhz). It is a very good phone. It is a Vodafone branded from Spain. The good: + HSDPA rocks at 1.8Mbps (like ADSL) and you can use with your laptop easily through Bluetooth. + The large screen + The keyboard eventhough it's small + The size + Wifi, 3G, HSDPA, Bluetooth + Micro SD
The bad: - Battery with 3G (can be switched down to G and solve the problem) - No Java engine in Vodafone ES. I had to add it myself (I have found IBM Java engine) - No MSN WM5.0 instead of WM6 - Internet access problem when use with realmail (Vodafone). Realmail has to be switched off manually in order to connect to internet. The reason: the phone cannot connect to 2 different profiles (Internet and Push email) at the same time. - 220MHz but I have to admit that up to now it is fast enough - Compatibility with existing WM5.0 programs (ie recording programs) - Non standard USB conector (phone side)
I would buy it again. I come from a HTC Qtek 8310.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience. I'll consider both headsets and standalone mics, by the way, but I'd like to keep the bill under $100 if possible. Help!"
