Samsung SGH-i320

Guys,

Help me decide.....Black Jack or Pearl?

I have heard good things about both phones and now cant decide.

My phone "wants" include mp3/media device, web browser, easy data (text) entry, blue tooth connection to my Sony Viao (sync Outlook emails).

Any advice?

Hi,

happy with my i320 i installed Tomtom 6. Installation was fine, but when launching the software (after the tomtom splash screen, which is OK), the software turns the display 90 degrees counterclockwise. The arrow keys actually work and I can access menus. But it displays landscape in this upward fashion and therefore is unusable.

I guess it must be tomtom that somehow detects a landscape screen and wrongly decides to turn the display?

It there a way to control how my OS displays various applications. A registry setting or likewise to control screen direction?

Thanks for any help. 🙂

Any news on this? I heard that Cingular was going to release it but still nothing out there.

t-mobile hopefully!!

The Samsung rep today showed us the Samsung SGH-i607 "Black Jack" which should be hitting Cingular stores starting the 6th of November. The phone looks very similar to this one, however there are significant differences. The main difference is that the Cingular version will have HSDPA/WCDMA.

just wondering if the device is pretty quick with web browsing, i h ad a sidekick 3 but lookin for something a little smaller, and was wondering if i can install aim or something cuz i dont really use msn messenger.

I have been trying to find a car charger to use with this unit. Anyone have a source?

Also, I have been trying to access company e-mail, and need to install a certificate (dcrootcert) but the phone won't let me (something about not having sufficient security clearance). Anyone have any ideas?

Other than that I love the phone!

I'm a big fan of the Samsung i320 which unfortunately isn't offered by a carrier within the US. IS there anyway I can import the phone and use it with an existing carrier such as Cingular or T-mobile? Below is an excerpt that may help, but doesn't provide much detailed or smart phone specific information.

"You may find that your particular GSM carrier does not offer this specific phone model. This is not a problem if the band/frequency of the phone and the GSM carrier match (i.e., the phone will work)."

"In the USA, the largest GSM carriers are Cingular Wireless, AT&T Wireless and T-Mobile. However, there are numerous other GSM carriers in the USA and world-wide that would also support this phone."

Additionally, someone at sam...

Uhg, I would snatch this baby up in a second if only it didn't run WIndows mobiles. 😡 RATS!

Looks like it'll be T-Mobile getting this judging form the specs.

so i thought a while back the FCC mandated that all phones activated in the united states were required to have gps location. how is it that this phone along with a couple other samsung phones like the x475 do not have gps? wierd

Well OK, I read it somewhere that the shape and the form of this phone does bear a good resembleance to the TI Scientific Calculators that we all used during college, and I agree with that..

Hopefully when designing the next smartphone, Samsung designers will have some sense knocked into them and not go all retro.. 😁

Is it just me, or is samsung copying pretty much every one of moto's moves? They don't seem to realize that having two of every thin phone on the market is really annoying

Could someone tell me if I could have full access to the internet on this PDA, or would it be limited what I could view. Could I scroll to any page I want viewing the full page or just parts of the page. Thank you very much.

Sammy's answer to the Moto Q......

???

"A phone that's just like the Blackberry, but made by somebody other than RIM. I'd like a Nokia! . . .naw, maybe a Motorola. . . or howzabout a Samsung! Aw, but it'll never happen - who really cares about the Blackberry market anyway?"
