Very nice!!! I like the gif!
The SPV MS Smartphone lives up to the usual MS standards...
You can call from contacts. You simply enter the contact, highlight the number you want, and dial. I never do this though, the "number/name matching" feature is so excellent. I have never had a phone that is so easy to find and dial contacts on. If you want to see how this works, it is mentioned in the review on www.infosync.no.
I don't have the camera as I live in Paris and they don't put it in the kit here. I have no idea if it is bad, I've heard that the quality is good, but you apparently need to use the MMS application. I have IA-Album, which has a separate camera app, so I guess this overcomes that limitation, but can't say for sure.
Overall (despite "load of tosh" statements) I'm really happy. You can see a LOT more information on the screen. Switching back to the 7650 the screen seems to not have as much info because the lines are bigger. The 7650 is more polished in its navigation, the SPV seems "loose". Don't know which I prefer, they both seems as good, but I actually get to the apps a bit faster on the SPV. This is offset by the fact I don't have a task switcher to get back to them later, so its about equal.
One little pain, I can't seem to find how to do a carriage return in T9. Oh well.
There is an update coming out in the next few weeks (already available in Switzerland) that apparently speeds up the navigation and improves reception. I really have no problems with speed, having followed all the tips I found it seems as fast as the 7650 easily. Still, stupid that you should need to turn off the key sounds to get this 😮ops:
One pain is that you can only set up one email account with the SPV. (plus hotmail via the web of course). One good thing, however, is you can set it up to download at scheduled times automatically without needing to be something like activemail (which does other things, I know)
And lastly, I was a symbian supporter and loved the OS. Still do. I don't think that people should get so defensive that they don't look at other options, however. Sounds like a reverse M$/linux backlash to me :roll:
I'll finish again as I did before. They are both great phones.
Bye
About the last post [by 'guest'] Has Orange and Microsoft resorted to 'advertising' in forums!? Its a crap phone - and the only people that would dare say it is 'ok', 'accpetable', 'not bad' or even as extreem as 'good' must be employees of Orange or Microsoft - Its simply a naff phone!
Cant say that i agree one 100% with you on this one Zipper,i'd say that it depends on what you need.
Seems that guest is satisfied with the SPV's performance and that is ok.
Just for the reccord,i would never change my 7650 with SPV or any other MS device.
