Review of the Fujitsu-Siemens LOOX T830?

CommanderROR · 01-02-2007, 02:52 PM

Hi!

I'm looking for a new cellphone and since I'm always on the lookout for cool gadgets I have found the Fujitsu-Siemens Pocket LOOX T830 (what a name...) very interesting. I read a few reviews and so far found it to be a nice device.

Before I put down my money however, I'd like to hear some more about it of course and thus ask you, dear fellow mobilereaders, for any info, pictures and first-hand experience with the device.

Reading ebooks on the device sure won't be my first priority, but the ebook angle is also always of interest (at the very least a mobile version of the Wikipedia will be displayed on it...

).

If anyone can suggest comparable or preferable devices, please feel free to do so as well...

Thanks.

if you're in the market for a smartphone, have you thought about the Nokia E90 with the clamshell design? Man, that's got the lot: GPS, 3 mpx camera, high-quality video, wi-fi, bluetooth, decent keyboard. Oh, and it's a phone.

Check out a review here:

Don't think it's out yet, but will be in the next few months. The keyboard is the real selling point for me, as using those tiny keys like on the T830 or Sony Ericsson P990 (my current phone) can be quite painful - and inaccurate!

Mind you, I'm a big fan of Fujitsu as I've got one of their laptops, so I'm sure the T830 would be reliable at least.
