just call phonestar.... the price is RM2588 coming free with bluetooth handsfree and 1GB memory card... and will available within this month (they also not sure when) .. but will be in this month...

but one funny thing was... when i ask .. can i pay by credit card ?.. first the salesgirl say NO... i was like haaaa ?.... then i ask .. u mean i need to pay RM2588 by cash ? .. she said yes .. but quickly she said.. wait i will confirm it first later... She will inform me later...

Hmm.. most of phone shop accept credit card .. why this kind of shop (sole distributor of this phone) does not accept it.. you are selling things something like RM2000 - RM3000 .. and u expecting people to bring CASH money to ur shop... haiyoo.. pleaseeee la.. people dun carry that so much CASH money in their pocket...

Got it on last Saturday.. bought it at Digital Gadget at Lowyat plaza ground floor .. package :

ASUS P525 box + Jabra BT150 BT headset + 1GB kingston miniSD + screen protector = RM2588 (u can pay by credit card without any extra charges)

Do not have any problem with my set yet... only the battery bcos i was using it non-stop for 2 days + with bluetooth headset on + GPS receiver on .. is it normal for PDA battery ?

seems OK to me... T9 always suggest a word when i press any keys .. what happen actually when u press any keys (when T9 is activated) ... is it a popup will display something like this (e.g i press "a") ..

a
b
c
d

mine it will suggest the words.. for example if i type "hel" ... it will suggest "hell" and "hello" .. if i'm using T9...

if i were using keyboard (T9 is deactivated) .. then there is no suggestion

in the Start->Setting->Input ... under Word Completion :-

- Suggest word when entering text is checked
- Suggest after entering "2" letter(s)
- Suggest "1" words
- Add space after suggested word is unchecked
- Replace text as you type is checked

Keyboard suggest word ? ... hmm i thought if u already activated T9 then system will suggest the word .. u can't use suggested word without T9 rite.. u can only use virtual keyboard when T9 is deactivated rite ? meaning that u can only use one input in one time (either virtual keyboard or T9) .... That "someone" mentioning his virtual keyboard in the screen or his physical numeric keypad ?

Yup tried with Holux GPSlim 236 Bluetooth GPS, connected without any problem and able to run Map software (Garmin Que or Mapking) smoothly. Being using it for almost 4 months already

Bad thing is there is no joystick... why they remove that bcos it much easier having joystick with one hand operation

GOOD NEWS FOR P525 OWNERS BUT DONT PUT SO MUCH EXPECTATION

but from the website it's only stated that the P525's WM6 updates for Taiwan/Russian (end of August) .. so no news yet for English (WWE)

Yup true... but it's unofficial.. if u dare, just give a try

It's on their website already http://www.asus.com/news_show.aspx?id=7867

BUT WM6 for P525 only will availabe End of august BUT ONLY For Traditional Chinese/Simplified Chinese/Russian models

we have to wait for WWE version

if you dare to try,

visit here WM6 for P525 Beta

Waaa... nice try Deani_77, hope its stable enough

i think i will wait for asus to come out with official WWE WM6 for P525

BUT if they DO NOT come out with that release then i will wait for unofficial P525 WM6 to be stable enough, then i will install it ..


Edited : Deani_77, there is an update for GPRS fixes - version 5.2.1437 (17944.0.3.1), i think u should update that if u're using GPRS

click here WM6 - GPRS fixes (Russian webpage)

yes.. it can, i've tried connected it with Holux GPSlim 236 and Jabra headset and it successfuly done it jobs (for GPS and headset)

Hi Deani,

Just wondering about the battery consumption on overclock P525 (520MHz) .. how is yours if you're using for normal calls + sms (no bluetooth or wifi)

I'm now considering to upgrade to WM6 due to my problem with WM5 alarm. The alarm was trigger but there is no way you can off it bcos no "Dismiss" menu appear in your screen. The sound just continuously ringing even i soft-rest my PDA.

My temporary solution for this, installed MemMaid then delete all <blank> notification and <clock> alarm notification, it works but if another alarm triggered again then i have to redo mentioned steps earlier.

Meaning that we still can control the CPU mode eventho it has been overclocked to 520Mhz ?

BTW Could you please verify my steps below b4 i continue with the WM6 upgrade from my virgin P525 with WWE ROM v3.34 :-

WM6 Setup
-------------------
1. Format SD Card with FAT16

3. Connect PDA to power
4. Run Asus unlock lang id if you use other than English version of ROM before
5. Press Camera button + poke soft reset hole
6. Wait until the flashing is finished
