hehhh , I have never clicked on the "today" button on the start button too ..... oh well, u learn new things everyday ...
can u assign mp3's / wma tones for incoming sms's without using any external program ? copying a mp3/wma file into my device/windows/ doesnt seem to work

I believe only *.wav file works for sms tone. Anyway, I use Ringo for ring and sms tone...practical and convenient too.

@strike > i tried ringo too ... but seeing as i have photocontacts pro and phone alarm installed as well - i'm getting a lot of double ringtones ... getting a lot of conflicting tones ... should not have so many i guess, but still looking for the perfect contacts/ tone app.

hmmm.....Ringo eh.....checking it now.....

so this program auto starup I presume.....does it take lots of memory and space in the background? any lagging - some program lags...such as delay of 1 or 2 seconds beofre playing the tune but you can already see people calling/sms on the screen...?

this button is quite useful if you have a few programs opened up and you need to see the today screen....

but good for P535 users that we have the task button on bottom left beside the call receive button that can be programmed to be task switcher....pressing it once will bring you directly to today screen.....

@ tester: I'm not sure if one would call it autostartup prog but I shd think that Ringo is like a substitute of the default windows ringtone function. It supercedes the default ringtone as soon as u select another ringtone and sms tone via Ringo. It is a really tiny prog so it takes a small amount of memory and it doesnt show as running progs. My observation is that it rings 0.5 seconds later as soon as the call / sms alert appears on the phone. Absolutely ignorable time difference if u ask me. Accordingly, the prog can also assign designated ringtones for each contact however I do not use that function.

@strik3

thanks for your information....yup...the time delay is insignificant then....will be thinking of installing this soon....

what intrigues me most is that the ability to assign ringtone to groups....

this is much convenient and practical compare to the builtin contacts that only allows ringtone per contact which is really troublesome to change for groups as i need to change each contact.....

Hi new user here. Just bought my p535 this afternoon.

Welcome to chrono_breaks...

been bz the last 2 days fiddling with the gps function.. javascript:emoticon(':cool2:')
smilie
Still not very familiar yet but managed to make it to work with the voice prompt.. quite cool...

Wifi, bluetooth, msn, is also good so far..
However, my pda hangs sometimes and have to reset it.. not sure if I have done anything wrong..

Some questions:
I had to reset the pda after inserting my SIM card? Is it normal?
Is it true that if you charge the phone with car charger too often, it can deteriorate the battery?
How can add a shortcut for some programs on the main screen?

Cheers..

1) err dunno how to answer you.....cause once i put my sim card in on the day I purchase...never take it out anymore....
2) well not sure can deteriorate or not....but charging through car charger can get full charge in half the time of home charger.....
3) you need 3rd party software.....i am using claunch

From my experience,

1) Everytime you insert/reinsert SIM card, you need to remove battery to do that. Therefore, it is normal to reset the pda either by a) holding the on/off button OR b) poking the Rest button

2) I believe the rate of wear and tear of the battery is the same wherever u charge the pda. The insignificant thing for those who charge via car chargers is that current from the car is not as stable than from house outlet. if you are paranoid about that, charge pda at home. Experience tells me one need not worry about charging in the car.

3) I'm using SPB Pocket Plus and it allows adding shortcuts in Today Screen.

Will try to get either software installed soon.. SPB or claunch..

I think car charger is useful especially on gps mode... will use it when need it..
The reason I am asking is because some pda sales guys told me without me asking about it..
tought it was an issue..

Best advise are from peoples are are actually using it...


Alamak.. never used pay pal before.. sorry guys..

thanks tester1979 & Strik3.. cheers.

My car is V-Kool tinted and I cannot get a fix inside the car!


That's the cheapest I've seen so far!

Sigh, to think I just got mine at RM 200 extra 2 weeks ago. Just have myself to blame for not shopping around more.

Damn, I asked them before I bought 2 weeks ago and was quoted RM 2,300 with 2GB!

Sigh... Prices drop so fast...

I doubt u`d have found a place selling cheaper than RM2,300 at that time coz apparently, the decision to reduce price was done by Asus recently in an attempt to capture some market share and reducing RM600 from its original introductory price is a very appealing incentive. Besides, if shops like PDA Expert who knows that some customers are looking for 1) cheaper price and 2) installment plans, they are not able (or not willing) to inform those customers of promotions that will fulfill those needs despite it`s just ONE day away, what more if the price reduction is over a week? Everyone still have a sales quota to meet, regardless of the retail price at that time and if any price adjustments imminent.

Well that's true.

But well, I've already bought it and am enjoying it! So don't want to worry about prices dropping again.

Wah Sony..I see u really enjoy Civic TT huh..ur Avatar.... ..Missed yesterday TT...personal matter....So hv u chk wth CV acc on the tiny GPS ext antenna? ..Interested to ask them to permanently fixed to my car too...

Hey guys ... a brief warning on the plugging / unplugging of your charger / usb connection cable .. that 'male' connector ' on my phone has come loose or something .. so needs some wiggling to make the connection ... anyone else have the same problem ?

hmm...sorry to hear that....maybe you could get it checked or replace by Asus....

and I think that you meant its the female connector on the your phone....its its the one that is being poked into..

how bad is it.....hope you can still get it fixed by people in asus.....

want 2 ask, what's the price now? any promotion around? how good is the gps ha?
