    HP iPAQ 512

    Frazier Barretto, Sep 03, 2007 1636 hrs IST

    Here's a Windows mobile phone which goes easy on the pocket. Does that mean it's easy on the features as well?

    Windows Mobile 6.0, 128 MB ROM, Light, Wi-Fi, Price

    Poor Screen, USB1.1, A bit slow, Poor camera.

I believe under such decent price of somewere around 10K, most of the other phone brands do not compete to its specifications. I am sure real buyers and professionals will not look for camera quality.

The best time about this mobile is you just have one cable to carry for both charging and data transfer. Sony, Nokia are you listening!!!!

Seems a good PDA Phone with this price Tag...But I wonder, why would anybody want to go for a Windows Mobile Phone? Symbian or any other OS can do the same job....
Sums
,New Delhi, on Sep 05, 2007 12:24 PM
Huh!!!U cant compare symbian n windows!!!!Windows phones are far far bettr...The best thing is a stable OS which i m afraid symbian is no where near..So please Mr. Dnt pass on wrong info it misleads......
prakash
,Bangalore, on Sep 05, 2007 01:34 PM
U R Correct, why most of the people go for windows OS, because connectivity is good for windows based computer, so files can be easily transferred, edit, save, open etc, but Symbian is also an very good OS for mobile phone, at present Symbian OS is the best OS for mobile phones.

Windows operating system for mobile is not handy,not userfriendly ,always hangs, needs three to four buttons to be prressed for single function, messaging is tedious etc. . being for so long it is not popular. On the other hand symbian is very convient, simpler, userfriendly, stable operating system. All what can be done in Windows operating system can be done in symbian . Lots 'n' lots of softwares are available for symbian . From above review it is not clear that editing mode for office available in the pakage. If not extra to be paid for its purchasing

Agreed that Windows is a good OS, but for Laptops and Desktops only. For Mobiles, windows mobile os is comaparatively not the best...! And the main thing is that we are now a lot bored to look at Windows (NT/XP/Vista..!) everywhere around. I don't want to same the same interface and icons and error messages and blue sceens on my mobile phone!!!! I prefer something different and innovative kind of interface on mobile phone. Symbian or no symbian, but no windows mobile, please. Motorola uses Linux...it also is good...I already have one Nokia N73 ME and one Motoming A1200. And I feel relieved that they are not having Windows OS !!!!!! And yes... Friend, that does not mean I hate Windows Mobile OS...If someone wants to gift me a "O2 XDA Zinc" I'll be very happy indeed....!
