eten X800 @rm1999

Thanks , any other recommendation ?

best is the x800 already bro. VGA good for viewing e mails and web browsing. camera is okay. dun expect pocket pc camera to be as good as nokia/Sony erricsson tho. But its good enuf. HTC hard to get quadband, and also hard to meet your requirements. the X800 is the only device that meets your requirement. HTC no device can meet your requirement

Okay , thanks . Is Eten easy to find ? I am afraid I won't be able to find it in Ipoh .. Hmm ...

Erm, i'm not sure about in Ipoh bro...sorry >.< try lelong.com.my

Okay Baronic .... Urm .. I would like to ask another question ..
Any recommendation that do well in camera , email , microsoft office and support wifi ? Because what my father need are those ... Sorry if I am being troublesome ... Budget range could be extended ... and HTC is preferable

The X800 supports all the above well my friend. HTC currently no model has GPS + Quadband + VGA (for overseas use) which is in your requirement bro.

NO NO NO ~ XD I mean .. what about other recommendation that do well in camera , email , microsoft office and support wifi . GPS,Quadband and VGA not important ... I just contacted my father, he said he will be happy as long the PDA(HTC) do well in camera , email , microsoft office , support wifi , large and clear screen and wide font

HTC P3600i @ RM1799

bro. your dad travels overseas. no quadband = cannot use in US and Japan.

but if u think those are not important, from HTC i recommend HTC P3600i. no GPS and no VGA.

VGA = more resolution, means clearer screen. QVGA screens like HTC P3600i when in sunlight cant see very well.

any other recommendation? with good camera and user friendly, most important is wont lagging

samsung no VGA yet. cuz of your budget i recommend X800 also Eten. if u can afford then go for DIamond. But its new and like all new devices still got many bugs

@findmelah, that recommendation is all there is currently. and again, depending on your usage all pdaphone sure will lag. u have to tweak to maximise performance

correction bro. HTC P3600i has GPS. i think u got mixed up d.. haha

eh what a stupid mistake lol. my bad. just so damn tired. cant think straight

I think ETEN M700 will do well in that area, plus with QWERTY keyboard summore, because u mentioned that ur father need to do microsoft office a lot. QWERTY keyboard is good when u want to type very fast.
it's also quadband, and has 2MP camera
but the camera just so so for my experience

but the bad thing is, there is almost no new set available in the market
if u willing to go to for 2nd hand, there's plenty option.

u've been helping out alot d la.. all mixed up in ur head d.. haha..

thanks baronic..i really appreciate ur help..

u sure ah ?so expensive ???

Yeah Baronic , You had been helping alot .. And thanks ..
