Hi smile.gif

I thought of getting an O2 Atom/ atom exec second hand for RM400-RM450. Is it a good deal? Or are there any other models from other brands that I should consider too?

Thanks

@blademaster, with that budget its hard to get a reliable PDA. period. so any recommendations will be relatively good, but that doesnt mean its "good". hope i make sense.

u dont have much choices and if its a pdaphone u want, those two do fit the specs and budget. that said, they are still pretty unreliable and prone to hanging.

my personal suggestion = up your budget to either Dopod D810 or Dopod 838pro second hand. at least u can keep using it even for a few years.

otherwise, if i were u, i'd stick to using a normal phone : /

Dopod 838Pro is only having 400Mhz.

O2 Atom Exec is having 520Mhz

But O2 Atom Exec not as reliable as Dopod 838Pro?

Reliability that I was referring to is actually 'stability of running WM Pro 6.1'

as in, less freeze/hang.

So which processor is actually faster? The Dopod 838Pro or the O2 Atom Exec?
