You couldn't afford a cell.

Yeah, getting your own cell would be kind of expensive.

razr's are shitty

7/31/2005 8:14:45 PM

^^^^^both of those phones are huge.

what's the smallest phone available from cingular? i want good reception, and i don't want a bar-phone. i need vibrate, and i prefer multiple #s per person. other than that, i'm not picky.

the audiovos is tiny, i got it because the s710a was too big for my tastes
its the smallest smartphone available



its smaller and lighter than my old v400

^Samsung X427M is the smallest probably. its too small for me though, i cant push the buttons

yeah, i get fat fingers trying to dial my samsung s307, but i like to keep it in my pocket, so i put up with it in exchange for the small size.

it's starting to do all kinds of weird shit, though, like it has a loose connection or 3.

7/31/2005 11:11:09 PM

i thought it was
and didnt care enough about it to take another one

sony ericsson s710a

for numerous reasons, i used to want a razr until i read a few posts here a/b 2710a, mp3 playback, bluetooth technology, and windows mobile, and 1+ megapixel digital camera, motorola makes a comparable product, the mpx220, but its fuckin huge.

i have a sony ericsson z500a.. i get just about 5 bars anywhere in raleigh.. doesn't have bluetooth... otherwise I love the phone.. the one problem I have found with it is that the software limits the speaker volume during normal use.. and isn't as loud as most phones.. even though it can get louder.. I sometimes turn the speaker-phone on to get the extra volume boost while in places with a lot of ambient noises.

they are releasing the z520a within the next couple of months.. which is an upgrade to the z500a, with bluetooth and such integrated..

^ I have the Z500 and I absolutely hate it. It drops calls left and right. Randomly gives me a BSOD, making pull the battery out to hard reboot it. The structure of the menu sucks, plus the keys take too long to press when you're on a call. Example: When I dial voicemail, I have to dial one number then wait, then dial the next, then wait etc. to enter in my password. Overall a crappy phone.

a couple things
1) the s710a does not have windows mobile, the audiovox does
2) the mpx220 was smaller than the s710a but got recalled and pulled from shelves because it was shitty and had a few problems, i suspect this is why nextel has delayed the release of the i930

You can fix your BSOD problems with the Z500a by pasting a spacer between the sim holder and the battery cover. The BSOD is caused when you slam the phone shut and the sim microprocessor shifts within the holder, losing contact with the leads of the phone.

Newer releases of the phone have this spacer.
