Communikator 9500: to use or not to use...

1 replies · 1,590 views · Started 05 September 2006

I'm currently thinking about changing from Windows Mobile MIO A701 to a Nokia 9500 Communikator.

The problem is, as far as I can see, the available software for this machine is very limited (in quantity and quality).

For example:
- there is only one Wallet software which can sync with desktop (but with limitations)
- there is no Database sync available (MS Access <--> PDA)
- there are really only a few good programs for this machine 😞

What do you (9500 users) think?
If you could choose, would you buy a 9500 Communikator again?

Is the Communikator (S80) platform dying?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!

Don�t... I had one, and don�t like... is SLOW... A lot of crashes all the time, and S80 gonna be descontinued.
Think about S60 platform, is the one with all developments.
If You like Qwerty keyboard, what about an E61 or E70!
Both seems great phones, and with improvements all time.
The only inferior thing for now, is the wide screen of communicators, that none S60 have.
