Are you using Vista or XP? You do know that ActiveSync doesn't work on Vista right? laugh.gif

Try this - After connecting the USB cable go to Start>Settings>Connections>USB-to-PC and then select ActiveSync. wink.gif

yea... i know, i'm using XP ler... i oledi selected the ActiveSync, but still can't.... guess what, when u connect a new hardware to ur PC, the PC will install the driver right? e.g. when u connect ur pendrive to ur PC, it will says Found New Device, then install the driver.... then only the PC can recognize the device, b4 I install ActiveSync into my PC, I didn't install the driver even though the PC prompt me, now after installed the ActiveSync, it nvr prompt me again. Anyone has any idea?

Here's a thing.

On 1st Jan 2009, I went to LY and stroll around to update myself with the latest gadget. So I was querying myself, Can HD play movie with TV OUT cable just like touch Pro?

So i was walking with my friend who owns a TP and we made comparison, And after asking several PDA shops there including HTC's, it is confirmed that HD cannot use TV OUT.

So I was sad to think that my HD device in no better than my friend's TP.

But I have a little hope that it can play movies soon thru TV OUT cable. It will be so easy to carry movies around in HD and stop carrying my External Multimedia Hard Disk whenever I travel to see movies with my family.

Hi All,

Its my first post over here, I've been lurking all the while tongue.gif (sorry~!)

But it seems that there are a few questions which I wanted to ask, was already asked by someone else. Unfortunately, it wasn't replied by anyone cry.gif Therefore, I have to register and put myself into scene.

Just to recap:
Are all SiS shipped Touch HD units supplied with SanDisk 8GB microSD? Or could it be other brands such as Transcend etc?

My own personal question:
Touch HD is really really nice, but its a bit wee expensive. What makes it so expensive as compared to other sets? (Especially the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, which is very much cheaper but also with the same specifications - GPS, Wifi, Touchscreen, everything!)

Thx all! thumbup.gif

lol memory card m not so sure

secondly touch HD is expensive because:

1. it is a windows mobile phone (the software itself costs more than symbian)- makes it a PDA (Pocket PC) not a smartphone
2. the screen resolution and size is different (5800 is QVGA 3.2in) whilst (HD is WVGA 3.8in)
3. comes with more RAM so u can have more stuff open without worrying it close accidentally
4. Touch HD has a 5MegaPixel camera
5. it has the ability to create word documents and excel spreadsheets
6. Dedicated Youtube application

these are just some perhaps others can add more icon_rolleyes.gif

Wow! Thanks for the fast reply.

1. How much roughly does windows mobile cost?
2. What is the difference between a PDA (Pocket PC) and a smartphone?
3. QVGA and WVGA that much big difference? (Anyway I still like HD's MASSIVE screen!)
4. It has a 5MegaPixel camera, but no flash, which, doesn't make much difference? (especially at night)
5. Probably some third party applications are able to edit documents as well?
6. Youtube (Symbian is now able to support flash doesn't it? So its almost the same?

Do mobile phones hardware cost very expensive? (RAM, graphics, etc) If so, maybe that's why the HD is way much more expensive as compared to other phones. Still wondering why the HD cost almost 3X of Nokia's 5800! rclxub.gif

Any HD users here regretted spending so much on this gadget? hmm.gif

1. no idea but I think the licensing is quite a bit more
2. Pocket PC are supposed be "substitutes" for laptops, smartphones merely complement usage with a laptop
3. yes QVGA is 1/4 the resolution of WVGA meaning if u view a webpage on both phones u can see more of it
5. yes but u either have to ahem or buy the license, HD already comes with it out of the box
6. yes but the dedicated youtube application is similar to the one of the iphone/ipod touch way more user friendly

well yes bro the quality of HD is a lot better compared to 5800...

I've read on LYN some users of 5800 have found cracks rclxub.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

sorry for this late reply was busy

Microsoft define difference between Pocket PC and SmartPhone is Pocket PC has Touch Screen, SmartPhone doesn't have Touch Screen. Hence, Microsoft develop Windows Mobile "standard" for SmartPhone and Windows Mobile Professional for Pocket PC, mainly is to add the Touch Screen driver for the User Interface tongue.gif

And thus since then, the whole industry use Microsoft definition to categorize /differentiate between Pocket PC and SmartPhone. The keyword is User Interface.

You can take it as:
Pocket PC = PDA with phone function
SmartPhone = Phone with PDA function

One bad thing I found about HD / iPhone or any 100% touchscreen device is , it's darn difficult to SMS while driving tongue.gif LOL

then how come mine does? using Vista Ultimate SP1.. hmm.gif


Added on January 6, 2009, 2:39 amtoday went around KL and tried the GPS with GMXT with latest gold malsingmap.. oh my god, it's damn laggy!! it would stay at one spot till 30secs, which made me miss a few turns and forced me to make a huge u turn, and this happened not on just one occasion.. rclxub.gif

i guess the GPS chipset that the HD is using is not the latest chipset (or a good one for that matter).. my previous N82 was a lot more accurate and responsive..

lastly i resorted to my own GPS, my head....... doh.gif
