Price drop..This will at least take about 3 - 4 months..Even that, the price will go to RM999 at its lowest most probably..QUOTE(utopian86 @ Oct 4 2010, 11:23 AM) A50 is in Aus starting last month. Yeah, it will be launched in our country much later..And the price will be higher too.. |

QUOTE(utopian86 @ Oct 4 2010, 11:23 AM) A50 is in Aus starting last month. Running Donut?  So, this Donut machine is replacing an Eclair machine. Or are both phones being targeted to different market segments? QUOTE The smartphone element of the A50 is powered by Android version 1.6, a version of the platform that was released late last year. Since 1.6 the Android system has been updated three times to its current 2.2 release. The significance of this is that each new version of Android has brought with it an increase in speed and stability, and for Garmin to lag behind with the older version of the platform is disappointing from an end-consumer perspective. Source (that's an AU source from last month) Here's a gsmarena comparison between the phones:- http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPho...9&idPhone2=3295 I really dont get how A50 is replacing the A10. For one, the A50 was announced much earlier than the A10. Logic dictates that the earlier announced model would normally be replaced by the later one, but what do I know. Sometimes software downgrades do happen for the best (e.g when people were ditching the crappy Windows Vista for the much more stable XP) but replacing Eclair for Donut? Really, ASUS? And according to the specs from GSMArena, the A50 has an inferior camera (3.5MP) compared to the A10 (5MP). Again, this replacement philosophy defies logic. So now, we get less MP in the camera, a downgraded OS and yet we have to pay more? OK, sounds reasonable. BTW, if any of you guys wanna help out a Nigerian friend of mine in transferring obscene amount of money from his war-torn country, just drop me a PM. What's really the problem behind the A10 that it needed to be replaced with the A50? Lack of raw materials? |

I don't think so there will such a case. Refer to the images of the dock that I posted on the review page, it mounts the phone from the sides. pretty much no room for a case to fit
However, if there will be one that is made, I will surely notify you  |
