X10 is stuck at 2.1 only. for that price range i might just consider Acer Liquid Metal as it's running a 800MHz processor...but i didn't find out much about phones in that price range since it's out of my budget tongue.gif

Acer liquid metal consider higher range than LG O1. smile.gif

Acer started making PDAs in the early 2000s (AFAIK tongue.gif)....I bought my 1st Acer PDA in 2003. Served me well for 2 years...after that sold off with very good condition. smile.gif

Hey guys, I am interested in getting HTC desire ( which the ap set nicely fit into my budget of RM1500). Do you guys think is a good time to get it? Or should I wait for newer phone to out? Is there any other option in the mean time?
*
Most probably new phones will exceed ur budget, so suggest u get the Desire now!... brows.gif

yup, WVGA resolution (800X480) is actually already pretty good on a 3.7" display

1 think I noticed that I need to zoom in in order to read lowyat.net (mobile version) in portrait mode with Desire,
however I don't need to do so using Ipod Touch..texts appear big enough in portrait....sure high-resolution help this.. smile.gif

err, is your Desire AMOLED set?

mine is SLCD set and honestly the text are definitely readable at default size without zooming.
AMOLED set however might be slightly difficult to read due to the pentile matrix pixel units.

and..higher resolution doesn't equals bigger text, it actually makes it smaller, but with finer details.
you can notice this just by looking at the monitor's resolution, some actually lowers their screen resolution just so that the text appear bigger.

the reason why Ipod Touch's browser text appears big enough is probably due to how the browser actually renders the text larger than the one on Android by default,
which can be solved by setting it on (certain) browser's setting to render the text larger than default. smile.gif

Yes, mine is AMOLED set.
