I went to the symbian smartphone show in London today and got some live pics if anyone is interested

I am a moderator on a sony ericsson forum and have been through all the P series always returning to pocket pc/windows mobile and thought the P910 would be my last but this one has once again caught my attention :-)

The ONE thing that I liked about my NX70V was that I could take the memory stick out of my F717 and pop it into my PDA and view the pics on it's gorgeous gigantic screen. That, however, was one of it's only redeeming qualities. WM does everything else better than (that version of) Palm. I'd LOVE to see a Sony WM device. Sony, just take a que from the F818 and put a CF slot in there too... Duh. :roll:

Viewing my pics on my PDA is, however, not worth the move to Symbian.

Welcome Capnus. Good to have you posting with us.

I was pretty much quoting fromthe article. Here it is in full:

Quote:
Multi tasking – being able to browse the Internet, send and receive files at the same time as talking – is now possible due to the enhanced capabilities of the new software platform.
(i hope i got the quoting right )

i have to admit ... i never tried surfing and downloading and uploading at the same time.
so this may have been a lack in UIQ1-2.
but switching between programs, having things open, and using a task manager to switch or close apps sure felt like a true multitask-eable operating system.
anyways ... just wanted to mention this.

it's nice to see other px00 users on this board.

The SE guy went to great lengths to show me that explaining that it was new in P990. He also went to great lengths to show me the multi tasking

hang on a sec though, pocketpc and window mobile have week view, though not laid out like that

edit: @JvanEkris, yes feel free to post them where you like and though its not compulsory, a simple link to either www.esato.com or my threadthere with these pics would be appreciated (yes, I am masseur at Esato and many other places :-) )

That argument isn't limited to the MS - why do we need to have such a wide range of differing memory card formats at all, period! :evil: At least Sony have gone down the route of standardising for the whole of their range. You cant say that about other manufacturers - particularly of compact digital Cameras - but its beginning to be a problem with PDA's too with some of the new small units using MiniSD or is that XD instead of SD :?
I agree and never said it was. I give Sony for trying to standardize the format in there own devices. But the SD format was already out and they decided to go a different route which I thought was unneeded from the jump start. Many of the other formats don't make sense either except to confuse the consumer.

OK, I used the p800 for a while and loved the form factor and one handed usage, but ultimately left the UIQ platform because it did not sync categories with Outlook.

Anyone know if this changed with the updated OS?
