Hi,

Will you pick Mitac 8390 instead of Sendo? Why? Mitac has faster CPU, 260K TFT (Hardware supported) but no Bluetooth, and if you also ignore the difference of the OS.

Mitac needs the faster CPU because the OS -- MS Smarthone 2003 has a huge footpring compare to Symbian's so don't count on the Mitac to be faster then any Symbian Smartphone.

No Bluetooth?Bluetooth is essential in a Smartphone,i would never buy a Bluetooth-less Smartphone.

Ignore the difference in the OS?That is the biggest reason why i wouldn't buy this phone.

BTW:I don't know what you mean by 260K TFT (Hardware supported).The Mitac has a 65K TFT as the Sendo X.

Thanks for the info.

Mitac has a hardware 262K color TFT but Windows can only support 65K.

Thanks for clearing that up.BTW:Why would they install a 262K screen if they can't use it to its full potential?

Cuz Windows sucks.
