Unfortunately the Bold 9000 supports HTML. And keeps re-enabling it.
It also ALWAYS quotes the entire message in an uneditable chunk BENEATH your reply (it can be deleted from the menu, fortunately).
HTML and non inline quoting are very inefficient on a full sized system, but on a system where the data transfer is limited and the screen tiny, it is a complete joke.
html?
I notice they carefully avoid showing the e-mail capability. I bet it's still text only.
Also noticeably absent was a demo of the web browsing capabilities. But then there's not a lot of WAP compatible pages out there these days.
QWERTY FROM No. 30
It may be QWERTY, but yet again, the key layout is in a grid and not staggered like a proper keyboard or the iPhone.
Hmm
That's quite impressive and I'm not talking about the phone, but about the quantity of the zipper ribbons that fitted into that corner of dudes' jacket :F
Baffled
Can anyone tell me why it is a good idea to put the speaker on the back?
All the sound energy goes unto annoying those around you as you have to turn the volume up to hear it from the front, and as a consequence the battery is hammered unnecessarily. Don't these people use the devices they design?
