http://www.phonescoop.com/phones/phone.php?id=278 The microsoft phone. It looks better then the nokia, has an INTEL PROCESSOR!! and its using a windows os. As much as i love symbian ill be trading my phone in for this when it comes out. And oh yea it supports SD cards. Stiff competition. I wonder if nokia can produce anything like that? Mebbe if they employ amd? Just a thought 😃

Do I really wanna reply? naaah.

I like the 3650 and will wait and see what the future brings. no need to argue about personal preferences 😉

Hehe... So M$ have finally realised they need a top notch processor to run their cr@ppy excuse for an OS, good for them! 😃

Just look at how slow and unstable their SPV and the likes are. Running at 132Mhz it's still even slower than a 9210 running 52Mhz...

Needles to say, Symbian rules! Yeah baby yeah! 😃

Until I went to the link I was scared that I was gonna be outdone by people who walk around with m$ phones 😊

All I can say is EWWW it looks like a sharp gx10. Flip phones are crap in general. I can see the novelty in walking around with a m$ phone in ya pocket - you can pull it out an show everybody the blue screen of death.. bahahaha

Please... nokia's next effort will piss all over that, the SX1 already does...

I would never buy Microsoft's smartphone. It's enough that i got XP on my PC. When do we get Linux for smartphones? Hehe.

I'm waiting for Samsung SGH-D700... Still, Symbian is best for cellphones, IMO.

I've got an SPV, ferkin did my head in, then I got the 7650 and the world was sweet again, the Symbian OS wipes the floor with that POS phone, it's sooo bad I've given to my mum, and all she does is send SMS messages, that's all it deserves.
But I do miss the stereo mp3 play from the mmc card, even though the player was a piece of crap.

Can the 3650 play mp3 in stereo?

I dont think that Microsoft can EVER compete with a Symbian based
phone. All they know how to do is to brag and talk.

I think the Nokia 3650 is still better ...

Once again,it has no Bluetooth,only IR,that is a big NO in my book.The design is really nice but that does not matter all that much to me.It can support MMC and SD which is an excelent feature,and it has T9.In my opinion the p800 which was released long time ago is a lot better then the MiTAC although the p800 has more PDAish features then the MiTAC and doesn't support SD cards and doesn't have T9.I think that Microsoft's beting horse here might be ActiveSync,since none of the Syncing options for Symbian has prooven to be flawless although the reason for that might be the "incompatibiliy" of windows with Symbian powered smartphones 😊

All I can say is the 9210 is the best mobile communications device available at the moment, so if you want the best that's what to buy. If you want a cut down smartphone then the SX1 looks good. Judging by the show that the SPV made of M$'s $martphone OS, I'd leave it well alone for atleast a few revisions yet.
