FUSIC for texting?

Are you kidding me? 🤣

Even the BLADE can do speach to text, which the FUSIC can't. The FUSIC is a horrible phone for text messaging. The buttons are not responsive at all.

Thoughts anyone...?
when i reviewed the fusic, i honestly felt it was the fastest 12 key keypad for texting i had ever used. that's why we chose it (well that and sprint doesn't offer a single regular phone with a qwerty keyboard). there are other speech to text phones b...

well its not that bad if ur a fatass then maybe
but the fusic's buttons are not rised (like embossed on a business card)
but speech to text sounds good but maybe useless at work or school or wehn u just cant takl anywyas

What about Voce?

Have any of you seen this service? http://www.voce.com
It seems really cool, unlimited calls, unlimited texts... Some decent phones... I usually spend almost $200 bucks on my plan anyway. Plus they have an assistant that will help you out with anything.

Sounds pretty good, what do you guys think?
I think Voce is a too pricey for the 'average' consumer. You may spend $200 on your plan, but I'm pretty sure most people don't.

Bad choice for e-mailers for Cingular - Explaination included

The BlackJack for Sprint is a good phone, but the internet package is 44.99/mo b/c the phone is classified as a PDA unlike the other Microsoft Mobile Smartphones you can get w/ Cingular for just $19.99/mo for internet. My suggestion would be the E62 44.99-19.99=$25.00 difference $25 x 24 month contract = $600 in savings A MUCH MUCH WISER decision.
whoa!

first, i'm confused: the blackjack for sprint? do you mean for cingular? i think that's what you mean.

on to the phone. every one of the windows mobile phones we chose has high speed data in one form or other. (the dash has wi-fi) to get t...

Ok first

Blackjack is a windows 5.0 SMARTPHONE edition and is not very good for email if you have to open and possible edit attachments i.e. powerpoint word etc. Therefor it gets the smartphone connect.

the E62 is a PDA, Symbian OS, but a PDA n...

sanyo m1 for sprint?

hello sprinters out there. i'm thinking of changing our choice of camera phone (and possibly music phone) to the sanyo M1. we were unable to get confirmation of a launch date before we published, but it's come out early enough to change the guide. The m1 is sprint's only phone with an autofocus camera, and with 2 megapixels and a flash that meets all of our requirements. normally i trust sanyo cameras implicitly, but i just wanted to see if any of you have taken any pictures with it and if so, what are they like? has anyone posted some to flickr?

i also thought i'd see if any of you have used it to play some tunes. i wonder it sounds compared to the fusic (either through wired or wireless headphones.

just thought i'd check with y'all ...

A few suggestions..

1. In the Emailer tab, the Palm 700wx is a great PDA and is what i might get when I switch to Sprint. BUT the 700w is a horrible phone. crashes all the time.

2. In the Light Users section you mention "all these phones have great signal strength" Well the Samsung a870 for Verizon has been reported as having bad sound quality and reception. I'd put the V325i or LG 8300 in there.

3. In the Serious Talkers tab, the KRZR is mentioned. Dont get me worng, I think its a good phone. But people can get an even better phone @ a much cheaper price. Again, i'd put a LG 8300 in there or a RAZR V3m.



Overall great article. Just thought these changes would make it even more effective.

One question, I'm buying a T-Mobile To Go phone for someon...

b/c the T-mobile you put $20 on every 90 days to keep the account active where with 7-11 you put $20 on there it stays active 365 days, so more bang for your buck.

700w for Verizon?

If we overlook the fact that this phone has SERIOUS lag and memory problems, it's just inferior to the i730.

Why, may I ask, was the 700w chosen over the i730 or 6700?
we didn't choose the i730 because of its poor keyboard and questionable battery life. the 6700 is a contender but judging from what people carry now, they seem to choose the solid brick form factor over the slider. i have nothing against the 6700 othe...
