Yeah..that's why it is hard to choose between O1 and SGA.
Apparently it is enough (from what I saw in forum).

Linux machines are suppose to be able to run regardless of RAM size, IMO.

The bigger the better, but there's no situation where it does not have enough RAM. smile.gif

It depends on how you use. There's always ATK.

I plan to sell my HTC Wildfire to my friend and want a new android phone. I don't know what to buy.
There are some that catches my eyes :
1.Nexus S
2.HTC Desire S

I don't care what brand it is. But usually I use my phone to listen to music and watching videos. Great sound quality is a must. Many widgets like in HTCs is a plus. Can play games smoothly. Budget RM2000 and below. Maybe can top up a bit to RM2200 but the cheaper the better.

Desire S if you like HTC Sense.

Nexus S if you like vanilla Android. icon_rolleyes.gif

Hello, I'd like to ask for an advice here

Brand: Any brand would do for me.

Budget: <RM2000

Specs:
(1)Personally i love 3.7inch and 4inch max, 4.3 is just too big for my small hands(for a guy sad.gif)
(2) no physical keyboard, prefer touchscreen biggrin.gif

Usage:
(1) Must have:
- must be able to read PDF documents without ANY problem biggrin.gif
- must be able to read and edit microsoft word/powerpoint documents without any problems. biggrin.gif
- watch movies/any shows and also youtube videos without ANY problem.
- good(if not decent) call sound quality.
- practical widgets to make my life easier (as i read comments here, it seems that HTC sense is to everyone's liking)
- want to have the latest adobe flash to surf the internet (/k/  brows.gif )
- future proof (i don't want to change phones regularly cry.gif , able to keep up with updates for 2 years or something like that, custom rom also OK)
- good battery life from average to above average usage (i'll try not to be a heavy user) biggrin.gif

(2) not neccesary but an okay bonus:
- camera: i rarely use the camera but it would nice to have it too
- (HD or normal) video recording: same as camera lol  cry.gif
- games: casual games would be a nice, but i don't need the hardcore game which requires high specs and stuffs. biggrin.gif

Currently what i had in mind is the HTC desire, BUT HTC desire s is coming soon so WTF i have no idea what to do now.

Get the htc desire now with the possible of immense butthurt when the new models arrive and the desire's PRICE DROP
or
Wait like a zombie for the htc desire s to release but its so darn far away mid MAY? and thats not in malaysia lol

If you have better recommendation than this, shoot it down to me. Any brand is OK.

So please, show me the light, gentlemen  thumbup.gif

P/S: is my requirement acceptable?
*
Samsung Captivate if you can't wait.

The thing is do you prefer a physical keypad of it, or a virtual one (touchscreen)

1. Brand = probably HTC but open to others
2. Budget = around 1K (slightly flexible, but around that range)
3. Specs = well, highest specs, hopefully the processor around 600mhz or more
4. I've never used android before and don't really know all their phones but I was looking for something like the Wildfire/Aria, I was wondering if there are any newer or better phones in this price range?

Samsung Galaxy Ace
RM 900.
