Yes, looks nice. I own an XDA EXEC and Samsung D900 (most of my phones been samsung) and never had any problems with this.

Again, just hope its not a slow beast

What about Memory ? did not see that in the specs
Also, what about availability?

Simon

Both unknown at this stage but i expect at least 128MB ROM / 64MB RAM and it'll most likely be available in the next couple of months (don't hold me to that )

Hello Nedge
Thank you for the reply - what are the chances of getting more concrete details on availability?
Do you have the actual sizes at all. Looking at the photos, I would say it looks bigger than my D900 - which is not a bad thing, because my D500 was big-ish and not so heavy - certainly a good phone.

D900 being ultra slim, and if this is thicker, then I can still live with this.

But any more details that you can share, would be nice-to-have

Thanks for your time.

[Alex (nedge2k)]

Actual size is: 115 × 57 × 19 mm

Screen res?

It does look rather nice - have to see how it fares when it's actually released but nice to see new WM devices from other manufacturers.

QVGA

Looks pretty similar specs to the Vario II/Tytn. I assume O2 Uk aren't going to release the Trion, if they're releasing this (unless the different approaches to sliding keyboards makes enough of a difference).

This would explain why O2 aren't releasing the Trion - I did wonder when i first heard that they weren't going too.

QVGA? pity it's not VGA - I do love the screen on the Universal but I suppose it would be to big on a device this size.

[Alex (nedge2k)]

well, not strictly, seeing as the universal isnt true VGA. When you hack the uni to run in true VGA its a whole different ball game

Check out how real vga looks here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...mp;postcount=31

When is the Fujitsu Siemens T830 coming out?

[Alex (nedge2k)]

what's that got to do with the price of fish?

keep on topic please

[gerryr]

niiice features. Battery is a bit weak considering everything crammed in (520mhz proc!!)

[bennish]

Sweet... sweet... sweet.
This just went to number 1 on my list, completely usurping the treo 750v. This is almost certainly my next device.

tri-band? a shame.

512mhz? drool.

will the battery be able to handle all that?

Do you know something about the battery life that we don't ??

[TriAxis]

Damn from the specs, features, and size this phone is nearly perfect. Except for the TriBand. I'm in the USA and on Cingular, so does this mean I won't be able to use this phone on their network. Is there another network in the US that this phone will work on.

It has a 1040mAh battery. This is less than most modern smartphones never mind PPCs, I can't see it lasting very long between charges.

[Alex (nedge2k)]

yep, a bit disappointing BUT samsung do have a habit of including two batteries with their devices - the second usually being higher capacity but bigger.

[PaulOBrien]

Or as on the i320, 2 exactly the same, but with a funky little charger-box you can use to charge the battery when it's out of the device

P

[Sonicr360]

Ok, so anyone know how long the usage can be per charge? I guess we dont have any bench mark tests yet !

But any indication would help..
