Smartphone/cell phone users. How fast is your internet speed?
Edited on Wed Jul-26-06 05:00 PM by HypnoToad
When using your device?

I thought about getting a smartphone (Verizon XV6700 :9 ) for my mobile needs. Looks rather splendid and in many performance tests, beats the competititon (which is always good to see.)

Mind you, it's probably pricey too. Especially verizon.

I know coworkers who do this and it's way-cool.

Uses less energy too...

1. I have the XV6700
It totally rocks.

Totally.

Rocks.

Check out the case I got for it:



It's brushed aircraft aluminum!

2. Will the case allow the keyboard to be revealed?
Though no doubt it would... :D

Awesome!

4. Ah.
Seems a bit tedious to use the keyboard with a big thing dangling down...

But I will keep it in mind... :D

My current PDA has an aircraft aluminium case too...

5. It's not too bad, actually
Obviously, it's easier to use without the case open. This case fits the phone snugly, so you canjust pop the phone out if you really need to.

Also, bend the stylus slightly in the middle - it'll keep it from slipping out when you least expect it.

Plus there are a TON of hacks for this phone! :)

7. I think I will go out tonight and get mine.


I've read up on some of the hacks...

And most of my apps will work; I can do without the others anyway.
