Hi all,
I've been to the Javo site and am VERY interested in one of their cases... The thing is, I'm a bit concerned as to whether the case will fit properly.
They say on their site that the case fits the following devices:
XDA II/Qtek 2020/MDA II and iMate Phone edition.
I know the SPV M1000 has different button designs to that of the XDA II etc, but I've done some research on the MDA II and from what I can tell it looks almost identical to the SPV M1000 except for black plastic around the button areas.
Could someone please confirm this fact as I've been in touch with JavoEdge about this but they haven't got/had an MDA II in for them to be able to check this.
Seems a bit silly to me that they would say the MDA II fits their case if its design is different to that of the XDA II!!!

I really would like to know if there is one single chosen forum member?
To me it seems this is cheap advertising!
I was chosen.
It's not just a marketing ploy, they really do want feedback...
By the look of the images, it seems that the Trinty has to be slid into the holder.
Now, I have reservations when it somes to plastic sliding against plastic, as this inevitably means scratches.
I doubt the reviewers will use their own Trinity's to constantly slide the unit in and out of the holder, but I certaily would not consider a holder which would potentially scratch my PDA after frequent use.
What is the 'executive' element of these holders?

good to know that you are the chosen one, neo ! ;-)
I currently use a brodit active mount my PDA. I also used the same for my previous phone (Prophet/M600). I've used these mounts for over a year and like PaulusUK I did not feel comfortable sliding plastic against plastic (and the brodit ones are very snug) but so far - no damage at all (and I use my PDA loads).
I will give some feedback about the new mount when I've had chance to look at it/try is out for a few days...
I've managed to use this mount for about 300 miles here's the feedback:
It's a lot more durable than it looks on the pictures.
It's very adjustable and tightens up easily and nicely.
The slide in fit is secure and maybe not quite as tight as the brodit I do not see any problems with scratching although I will keep testing over the months and report back if anything happens.
The ball joint and extendible arm are nice touches.
The suction cup is one of the strongest I've seen although not quite as strong as the RAM version I cannot image it ever falling off.
It's virtually vibration free, you get a touch of vibration at times although it's nothing I could really complain about (it's loads better than the RAM).
I've used over 15 different mounts over many years and in summary this one is neat strong and does the job very well. I recommend it.
If anyone has any questions please just ask and I will try to help.

Is it possible to p u s h on the screen e.g. if you want to dial a number, can you do it in the holder (I hope you understand what I am trying to say) ?

No problem pushing on the screen. But if you have the arm extended you need to push it back first, then it's solid (hope this makes sense).

Yeah I think I understand. The extension is not fixed.
best pda mount ever (in my opinion anyway)... i bought it from the uk via ebay
http://stores.ebay.com/Buybits-GPS-Navigation-Store
search for keywords "bb deluxe magnetic mount"
it's magnetic and the pda mount is covered with soft rubber (or foam) so you don't need to worry about scratches. all you need to do is attach a small piece of metal to the back of your pda.
I am getting hold of a second hand XDAIIi for free but I am soon to upgrade my contract on T-mobile and was thinking of getting myself a shinny new pda.
I am new to the pda world and dont want to make a mistake and get the wrong one.
I notice that T-mobile do the MDA compact III and wondered if this is the same machine as the orbit ? or if the compact is any good at all ?
they also do the Vario III.
can anyone comment on which is the better machine ? I currently use a Nokia N95 which is very limmiting due to its size and the standard phone keyboard, I like the abillity to acsess the internet and email wherever I am over GPRS and also Wlan, I also like the layout of the the calendar on the xdaIIi.
compact 3 and orbit are old now, orbit 2 is out aka touch cruise or polaris. the vario 3 is same spec but slide out keyboard form factor so all depends on your taste, if you like brick or slim brick. either way id go for a asus p750 better spec and faster.
Hey all,
I've decided that I would like to get an Orbit 2 vs. a TC. I think I just like the way it looks better. Plus it sounds like on average there are a few more build quality issues with the TC...
Anyhoo, anyone know where I can get my hands on one??? I live in the US and all I seem to come across is the TC...
Thanks!
What build quality issues on the TC? The only build quality issue I'm aware of is the volume slider that rattles on the TC, I don't know if this happens on the Orbit or not. What I do know is that the Orbit has the rubber on the jog dial fall off, while the TC does not have that problem (it's not a rubber piece).
I'm from Sydney Australia, I'm interested in getting an unlocked orbit 2 too. I have a friend in the UK who I can ask to get me one, but can someone suggest where in the UK to get one (other than O2 stores)?
Thanks
I am looking for a used (cheap) and light WM smartphone to comfortably fit in a suit jacket pocket for those occations, and with qwerty keyboard.
I am using a TYTN II now, which I will keep, but it is heavy and bulky.
Having my eyes on either the i600 or the s620, are there good reasons I should be aware of choosing one instead of the other? I can have both at the same price.
Right now the i600 looks most right due to being a bit smaller and lighter than the s620.
Anyone that have used one or both that can give some hands-on experience and suggestion?
Two Smart is good
I would suggest Samsung i600. I'm using this phone several years, used many other devices, but always get back to my old I600. And now more then ever I like my I600, thanks to Nokser, that gave second life to my Samsung with his WM 6.1.
Heh no this no suggest, but maybe ....
The I600 was sold before I got to it, so a S620 it is.
Maybe I'll add a I600 later to see which I like the most.
HTC S620's keyboard is neater than any other smartphones made by samsung and blackberry(also manufactured by HTC)
