I request somebody with proper equipment and spare time to try it out  |
Using Wifi Continously on a phone is going to boil you Battery! You will have to keep it on charge continously, and the battery's life span will be shortened.
[quote=Anish;917256@ alsiladka - Dude, I've tried out almost every phone on the market currently and please don't try justifying Symbian one bit cause its definitely slow and the coding is nowhere near perfect. I personally use Symbian (on a P990i) and it still manages to throw up errors every 3-4 days on continuous usage. Same with WinMobile (5,6 and custom ROMs), they are definitely not stable as a rock.
Just curious btw, how many different OS'es have you used?
And don't give me 8Mbps WiFi rubbish, if you have access to a 8Mbps UL WiFi line, then that's excellent, most of us here dont.
To be honest, give this idea a skip and get yourself a ASUS EEE 4G with an external USB HDD.[/quote]
I have used Win Mobile, S60 as well as UIQ.
Just for your knowledge, P990i runs UIQ, not S60. Completely different offerings based on the core symbian base.
BTW, your idea of the Asus EEE 4G was the best idea you have given till now.
