The GRID - Helps you Pick Your Next Smartphone

<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/grid.htm' target='_blank'>http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/grid.htm</a><br /><br /></div><i>"The idea here is to score most current PDA/smartphone solutions and see which one comes out on top. The scores for each criteria are my own personal evaluations. You can apply your own weightings, though, and the page will multiply everything up and work out your most suitable smartphone solution. Models and scores: (10=excellent, 1=terrible). Weightings: 'Not'/'Quite'/'Very' multiplies scores by 0, 1 or 2 respectively. "</i><br /><br />Steve Litchfield, the guy from the <a href="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10187">Smartphones Show</a> has created a tool to help you decide what smartphone is the best one for you. His new tool is called "the GRID", will tally up your answers and show you the most suitable device for your needs. I took a quick run at the test and it recommended the Nokia N70 as best suited for me, with the i-mate kJam as the runner up. :? I wouldn't use the GRID as the definitive word on what phone to buy, but more of a guide to help you narrow down the market to what devices have the features you're looking for. Give it a try and let us know what phone is best suited for you.

It suggested the K-Jam for me, with the Nokia N70 and E61 coming joint-second!

I guess I should be heading over to PocketPCThoughts. ;)

I know I'm more of a PPC person over Smartphone, but I'm surprised that GPS wasn't a question.

For me the results were:
#1 = Wizard
#2 = Universal
#3 = Blue Angel
I currently own a Wizard and am thinking about getting the Hermes when/if it comes out in Asia.

I got the same results. :-) Both devices are out of my price range, but I'd have to agree that those two would suit me well. ;-)
