CES 2005

Now that I have had my Samsung a930 phone for a couple months, I am ready to get a Bluetooth headset. This is real new to me. A couple months ago, some forum users said some sets were incompatible with this phone. Any recommendations for which Bluetooth works well with this phone? I notice that the prices for Bluetooth sets on ebay run from a few dollars to way over $100. What is a good price point for a headset? Are the cheap ones any good? Thanks.

hey rich are anybody..how much is the samsung p777 going to cost and the moto v635..i heard there both goingto to be available Q1..and i ahve cingular..so i want to get one.which one should i get?? 😕

🙂 🙂 New Audiovox 9200. This is great!!!!It is cute, small and compact. I prefer this phone over the 8910. I can't wait for it to come out. Does anybody know when this phone is coming out for verizon?

Anybody has a picture of Haier's P7 pen phone? It sounds interesting.

It seems as if LG and Samsung are dealing with Cingular and Sprint users' needs but not anyone affiliated with T-Mobile.

Am I wrong Rich Brome?

I would like to see a megapixel phone with video capture for T-Mobile.
Is there anything coming out like that for T-Mobile?

Rich,

Is it me, or does it appear like you're purposely covering up the service provider logos on all the pics of the LG phones? In all the pics, your thumb and index finger are right where the logos would be located. Just looking at the pics of the VX4700, your thumb is right where the Verizon logo would be and in the pics of the F9100, your thumb and index finger are covering the locations of the Cingular logos. I'm assuming that LG told you to do that before taking pictures but everyone already knows that the VX4700 is for Verizon and F9100 is for Cingular. The logos are also covered in the pics of the other LG models.

Will the Samsung p207 have mp3 ringtones or those smaf ringtones? How does it compare to some of samsungs cdma phones?

Does anyone know when this phone will be available?
How much will it cost?

I am glad to see a Bletooth Samsung phone for T-Mobile.

The one major problem is the money problem.
T-Mobile has very expensive phones for example the Samsung P735 (the swivelling flip phone) costs $500!!!

The SGH-E865 will have Bluetooth and will record video longer.
Can I expect a price of $600?

Thanks.

hey rich besides the bluetooth i605.. i think.and th i930..was there any other iden phones,or any ones in works that would be out later this year? 😁

In your detailed descriptions, Rich, it never states that any of the Samsung phones are going to have Bluetooth.

Is Bluetooth a risky technology that Samsung does not feel is important?

I mean Bluetooth isn't for everyone, but you would think that Samsung would have at least one phone that includes Bluetooth.

Thanks.

What happened to the a840 and are there any new world phones for verizon coming out any time soon?

Is there any pics from the adult entertainment expo?????hahaha

Which provider is it for? I love that phone. It looks so sexy. I hope it's for Verizon... I dunno tho.. Someone please help?

Hey Rich, first time poster, but long-time reader. Excellent site with excellent coverage. Thanks! 🙂 I'm intrigued by Amoi's G6301, though it obviously needs polishing. I think we're just going to see more and more innovation in this basic form factor- it offers alot of promise for having a large landscape screen with an optimal viewing orientation. QWERTYs are increasingly important, and gaming might actually be a good experience in this form, too. Being obsessed like many, I'm curious how you got into this blog business, Rich. I think you and people like yourself who cover phones/gadgets for a living have the best job ever. I'd love it. Any feedback you could provide would be most appreciated.

Was Danger at CES?

Has anyone heard of any new plans for a new Sidekick?
I think that more people would buy the Sidekick if it had Bluetooth and a better quality camera.

Did Motorola say anything about an upgrade for the A630?
It would be nice if the phone had a better quality megapixel camera and maybe a better phone layout.
The phone part of the A630 looks old.

Thanks.

Does the LG A7710 have a memory card slot?

How much memory does it have?

Is it still coming out later this month as Phonescoop says?

How much will it cost?

This looks like a great phone, but these questions must be answered first.


Thanks.

Rich,

You took some great-looking pics with the A800.

Were you able to take any pics with the Samsung P777, Motorola V635, or the LG A7110?

How did they look?

Thanks.

Nothing new from Palm? not TREO's??

I have been hearing about the HPON phones. The price looks good but I don't know if they will work with Cingular. The website says you can buy a GSM phone for $136.00 and get your carrier to activate the phone. Has anyone heard of them or if they actually work?

I've read the recent announcements about the 6822, big deal, a new screen. Nokia previously stated that they were going to release 40 new handsets this year. I'm surprised that there are no reports coming from CES. Were they not in attendance?? Surely they would at least show off some current models. Or hopefully the new dual-cam 3G that engadget had a few weeks ago? Nothing?! 😢
