I mean..
>500MHz
720x480 x 24bpp screen
integrated storage >8GB
Windows Mobile 6
WCDMA and GSM
and it starts at $195?
is this some kind of fantasy?
It is real, but it is far from $195, closer to $800. According to them it is scheduled to come out in December but you won't see it until next year.
May i remind you that i've never heard of Meizu before, its a newcomer, expect bugs and even shortcuts...

Meizu has been making MP3 players ( http://en.meizu.com/ ) for 4 years, but that's true: they hasn't made any Windows CE based device ever, until now.
I supose this Phone has Windows CE 6.0 Core, and own GUI so it can be uncompatible with Windows Mobile 6 stuff (CE 5.2)
They are offering another Iphone clone for 169 Euros in the NL. The CECT Clone. So the pricing could be correct.
This will run probably CE 5.2 so we can take all the goodies we have to this phone and from this phone!

Yes, As I read it doesn't run WM6 but Windows CE 6.0 under a special miniOne GUI so it can't run conventional Pocket PC apps. Unless the miniOne GUI only an app which runs on WM6 but I haven't read about this anywhere, so it isn't likely.
It can run most PPC apps, that's real.
Yeah, multitouch and USB Host / Client
now that's what i call an iPhone killer :O
the functions / ui of the apple phone + the things i love about wm (great community, so much programs, etc.)
I just stopped into a Meizu store today (I live in china) and saw this phone and heard of it for the first time. It looks very cool though. The price is around $350 US and has 8GB and is multi-touch. I think I want one
it definitely looks as the best PMP player and phone together.
if only it could run WM apps, it would rock..
Apps on Meizu
I got my hands on one of these devices and it is pretty slick. There are still lots of bugs in the os, but new versions are still being put out there. It sucks that it does not run WM apps. I have found 2 that work. Coreplayer and TCPMP run well on it, but really are not needed because the integrated player works well.
I am hoping someone will develop a Windows Mobile rom that will run on this device. It would really rock.
i really want this phone. It may not be an HTC phone but Meizu has some big potential.

Hi!
I just want to know if any of you guys have tested the new Opera 9 (I think 9.5), the one that came with the Diamond and that has been ported to many other devices in you Treos 750.
I want to know if the QVGA .cab of Opera is fully compatible with a Treo 750v since I'm buying a new one tomorrow and I need to know.
I use my phone (right now a Sony ericsson K850) mainly for texting, emails (exchange included) and for browsing Opera mini 4.
Thanks
funny you should ask. i just installed opera 9.5 on my treo750 and this was the first site i visited. it works grea even though i installed the same one as my Kaiser and i was worried if the square screen on the treo would be problematic, but no its not. it works great and is responsive, even on tmobile edge network here in the US. obviously my kaiser on att is faster coz of 3g, but opera 9.5 is fast a hell. i tried deepfish, opera mini and 9.5 - this is the best so far.
Folks this poll is to help me figure out what people like and want from my roms.
Please help me out so I can cook better roms going forward.
Thanks again for your on going support,
I voted for the v4.0 biggy, simply because it seemed the most stable, fast, and had nice battery life. Other have been more visually appealing but for actual stability and function 4.0 hasn't been beat. That being said I did enjoy 5.0UL, liked 6.1, and currently using the 6.5 biggy and am enjoying it. Looking forward to the next ROM you made.
I know before i said I liked version 4.0 but Version 6.5 Lite no TL or SPB was a come back

+1, here's another vote. There are a couple things I'd like to see added to each of those, but the whole reason I chose them anyway was so I'd have room to install what I want.
opentouch3.0
opentouch6.0>TL-lite
opentouch6.5>TL
love these ...the best i ever used on my wing ...... 3.0 was my first rom
Open Touch 4 Biggy and Lite seemed like the most stable versions of open touch i have ever used.
from testing your previous roms, 5.0UL was the most stable, best memory management, ease of use, packed with features on the today screen... and with the new build the 6.5UL should take over!!! ( for the roms you are cooking )
running 4.0. was using 5.3 but the sms issue was too much of a hassle, no fix was fixing the problem. jumped back to 5.0 but the version i had was missing parts of the interface i enjoyed. so i went back to 4.0 and it's been running like a dream. love it.
I LOVED the UL version of 5.0 concept, but i didn't like the small icons for sms,phone, etc. If there was some way to combine the UL version with the Throttle look, I think it would be great. Just an idea for you to run with ttran! Keep up the good work +4 Kudos!
I have used OT 3.0 lite and currently on OT 4.0 lite. I prefer lite version over others because it gives me the most flexibility yet with the foundation built.
Once I get less busy, OT 6.5 lite will be my next trial. Or maybe OT 8.0? Who knows... with the speed that Ttran pumps out new roms OT 8.0 may be very well expected in the next few weeks...
Thanks for the great work!
I've tried v6.5, v5.3 biggie,
but the one that worked perfect
out of the box was the 3.0 biggie.
that is the only one ive been abe to use.
Current poll status
Well so far it looks as if Version 6.5 Lite no TL or SPB is in the lead.
Please keep voting, this will help me in creating future roms.
Open Touch 3.0
I started off with 3.0, and I think it was most stable of all the other versions. I do really like 6.5 though. I just wish you made a biggy version of 6.5 without throttle launcher. It's too sluggish for me.
Hello
The ROM is super nice from the last one but I have two problems in counted with the new ROM
Biggy
1. Not able to change weather for another city or zip code
how can I do that
2. My phone kept calling it self at night starting at 4 am
I noticed it is dialing my own number
over and over
3. It dialed my other number on it own

The biggy will come without TL after the UL version has been released.
i loved open touch biggy v3.0 but i have to say i seriously loved the dialer from 6.1 spb lite diamond the dialer skin and the com manager skin i had problems getting any MMS's for some reason though. again how can i add the skins to the version i am using now 6.5 no TL no spb?

+1.
UL was that thang! Just waiting for another one.....
I really liked OT 5.0 diamond lite. The today screen was perfect. But the 6.5 build is super fast. I tried spb its just to intense for our weak little wings. TL has great potential but still to buggy for me. Id say the best thing would make a lite and a biggy with no shell and let people install their own.
#1 OT v.3 biggy #2 OT 6.0 lite Diamond spb
ive tried all of them and v 3.0 biggy has my vote being the best right out of the box, no bugs at all, ive tried the TL's way to slow even over clocked to 286 then tied 6.5 no spb or TL very fast one issue with mail keeps sending messages, as soon as i find the fix i'll be running this one
I'm using 6.0 lite Diamond spb runs very good bluetooth could be a little better, but then that could be cuz of all the crap i installed to make MS voice command work better so i could have caller ID over bluetooth, would be nice if i didnt have to reinstall the spb then copy files over,
is 6.0 biggy fixed
I thought they were going to release a Window Mobile version at the end of 2008. Hopfully they will release it soon.
I heard they were supposed to be releasing a limited beta. I was really looking forward to seeing what it was like. I kind of just forgot about it though.
FENNEC beta
I use it on Nokia n810 internet tablet. Recently updated again.
Now supports noscript extension, nothing more... and the fonts look crappy... I'm waiting for foxmarks to work, favourites and password synch would be perfect.
Opera has something similar but it's payant... grrrr
It is not bad anyway but no where as near to perfection as opera 9.5 on win mobile.
BTW the internet tablet is not that good browsing internet and touch screen can get better.
Now have touch hd 3.8 lcd.... it rocks and makes more things pleasant to do on a mobile phone
i am eager to try out fennec too. to bad i sold my n810 because i hated the browser har har. i guess i am going to have to wait longer
sorry double post. but check this out. i know someone has the skills to build it. https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Bui...ructions#WM6.1_Emulator_Images_IMPORTANT_NOTE
In short, there will probably be a public version built with the Touch Pro in mind next week.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Notes/26-Jan-2009#Windows_Mobile
Windows Mobile
We are targeting a Milestone release for the first week of February, targeting the HTC touch pro.
We are two patches away from the meta goal of building from trunk. The tools changes have review from dougt, and are waiting for review from ted, who has promised review by the end of the week. NSPR changes are waiting for review from Nelson, who asked for and received a patch against NSPR trunk

people will love you if you can build it fast and release it. i think it is crazy that people have built it and not released it as a bin.
crap the touch pro i hope that when they release it it supports qvga devices.
yeah I want it for my xv6800.
well pm if you can get a cab. thanks in advance.
http://people.mozilla.org/~blassey/fennec-1.0a3pre.en-US.wince-arm.cab
Disclaimer: have not checked it out.
oh snap thanks where did you find that? i am putting it on my ipaq emulator right now to see what we have.
well it on on the emulator when i try to launch it it does not launch.
actually it launched after quite a while but the picture was kinda distorted then it locked up.
that cabs 22 mb
yeah it is. any chance you have a vga device to test it on? or do you know of a windows mobile emulator that does vga?
edit yay it works on my tilt. too slow to be useable though.
kinda works on touch HD
I tried it this morning on my touch HD, it insyalled fine, launched fine (after quite a long time) but :
-It takes half of the screen
-It doesn't display the virtual keyboard so I can't enter an adress to test it ...
Wait and see the next version
A new version is out: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1903
Hi Guys..
I have installed Fennec.. Mozilla's offering into the Win Mo browser market...
has anyone else tried it out at all? at first glance it seems quite good but unsure what pitfalls there are to using this.
Ta
i tried it, but its not finished yet. nearly nothing works and its very slow.
i'm waiting for it too, but mozilla is making verly little progress on that.
you should really try opera 10 beta 3, its the best browser for the hd2
at this time, i think!
No! Opera Mini 5 Beta 2 is the best browser! It's soooooo fast! Much faster than Opera Mobile (no matter what version)!
not tried a nightly of fennec for a while, been watching the progress of the maemo version though.
Maemeingast everyone is entitled to their opinion, personally I think mini is a pile of java poo

LOL
And why is that?
(Just interested in why some people don't like Opera Mini eventhough it's so fast and even has the same interface as Opera Mobile.)
had a look at the latest 1.1a1 nightlies, (both 1.9.2 and 1.9.3)
and it's starting pretty fast (after the first time it takes ages during setup).
Pretty responsive now with moving around etc now which i a huge improvement, but still can't get it to load a website!
its also not cleaning up properly i dont think.. for example it wont restart unless you soft reset

I'm not really struck on opera mobile 10, don't like java very much, and dislike intermediate server rendering of what I'm looking at
at least teh opera mobile has an option to turn "turbo" off
fwiw I love opera desktop. 10.50 is ace
