High End PPC Phone.... jaw dropping!

I came across this looking for a replacement for my MDA, want a better one. Look at this one on http://www.jarengoh.com/
Its a XScale 400MHz and 4MP camera, and WM5..... Coming out soon. What do you think?

tried PIE and wm5 opera I think you might have a dead link

matrix849:
Try desktop browser. The whole page is one big flash so I doubt anything on the PPC will show it properly.
weezy:
It looks great, but they don't say what it has (hardware wise) besides the camera and WiFi.
Is there BT? How much memory? Screen resolution? Is it a Smartphone or Pocket PC based? (touch screen?)
It's not on the products page of the company they gave the link to, so I don't see anything to be excited about yet.

From memory, I believe this is supposed to cost around $300,000, with the White Diamond consumer end model around $4000.

Yep, bang on it's on the website at $300,000 available 2007
I think I'll buy two

Buying that phone you would think does it come with 8 rooms and a five car garage. Still good phone to look at :lol:

Addition to the design phones
Hi people,
Here are two additions to the design phones. Both are concept though.
But still are really wicked.
So have a look and let's hope the companies do build such smartphones.

I don't know the rules about forum swearnig but "F**k me!" that's a breath taking phone...even more breath taking than the V3 RAZR and on the same level of breath taking as the Vertu range, which cost around £3,000.
Oh my gosh I've just discovered that Vertu is owned by Nokia Corporation ... so they're just high-end flashy Nokia mobiles?
Uh, what a disgrace!
Nice find

Vertu are hardly high end, feature wise, but they're blingin.
A guy at work here has the Bang & Olufsen Serene, which is also expensive, and damn user unfriendly. But at least it has a motorized self open/close mechanism

Take a look at this too http://keesoo.multics.org/articles/jan2005/se/se_design.htm
This is strange looks like Wizard (designer is so impressed I think)

All of these jaw-dropping / mouth-watering / breath-taking phones are just pure luxury...I think I'm just going to have a heart-attack and collapse ontop of the Pool table.

What phone to buy

Hi boys and girls!
I was planning on buying the new Diamond 2 as soon as it hit the shelves here in Norway, but as HTC still thinks I should pay for the repair of an USB port which was DOA I have decided to try to find some other phone...
So - anyone have any good suggestions?
Cheers!

Nokia 5110
I prefer the lime green casing myself, but that is personal preference, as is selecting a device or a type of wine.

@ Red: Thanks for the suggestion, but I find it too small for my liking. My three "musts" are:
1. The handset need to be sturdy. If i forget my hammer, I need something to hit other drivers with.
2. Must come with its own backpack, and the fabric must be washable.
3. I sometimes use the phone in my care, so the top part must be possible to detach from the battery. There just isn't space in my estate car to have the battery in the front.
My best bet til now is this model:

haha great response. With all honesty go with something a bit inexpensive in the meantime if you are waiting for TP2 to be released in your country.

Actually, I'd rather go for something NOT from HTC...

Go for Touch Pro 2 or Toshiba TG01

Or buy the new HTC Touch HD ...

Thanks for the suggestion. Will have to have a look at the Toshiba. As for HTC, I'd really like to stuff the aforementioned phone (the Ericsson) somewhere the sun don't shine. Unfortunately, I think I will have to use "most people" as a baseline for sun-exposure, as I have a feeling these guys (?) do a lot of "work" on all fours

I understand your reluctance to get a HTC again I for one have a HD which is actually really good although when i first brought one it had 3 dead pixels and although htc wouldnt replace it the shop i brought it from would, now after 3 months or so my replacement has just developed a stuck pixel which I have never seen before I've has so many products with lcd screens and worked in a shop for a bit that sold them and only ever seen them come with a dead/stuck pixel. its not really noticeable but very annoying considering the price of the phone. So I was thinking thats the last time i buy a htc but then I realized there isn't any 1 else who makes anything near as good in terms of features and looks.

my first choice would be the hd

go for the HD or a super processor snapdragon on the Toshiba TG01

Panasonic's come back

Lumix Phone

Panasonic ???
iPhone | ??? | GSII
Specs are actually unknown but they wanna make high end devices. All we know is that it will be dust/water resistant. Perfect for me. If I get any opportunity to change my OB, it will be a "PanaPhone".
CES 2012 will be great

It looks so much so like my old HTC diamond

Panasonic announced plans to launch its first global smartphone in Europe next year in March. Company has not sold mobile phones in Europe since January 2006.
In the announcement company has not declared its name but did say that this slim bezel phone features an ultra-slim D-shaped design for easy portability with a 4.3-inch qHD OLED screen and would be waterproof and dustproof. Other specs are undisclosed...........

Good to see them getting back into the smart phone game. More competition means better quality phones for all.

I look forward to seeing what they release in March.

panasonic phone looks like the Prada phone

That actually looks pretty good

they arrive a little late, hoping this won't affect their ambitions. It will also be very good if launch prices are not too high. I'm very interrested of that.

the price and how commen the components are would sell me on them.

Have to wonder how waterproof/dustproof will relate to repairing devices.
Some companies have made it easier (apple) but every android phone I have opened has been a hassle! Maybe they will just glue them shut so nobody can open them

I should say Jp's industrial design is great

It is a interesting sharing........

Always been a fan of Panasonic, let's hope these continue their line of excellent products.

The last and only time I had a Panasonic phone was back in the days when phones had external antennas!!

if panasonic can somehow get their LX5 camera with phone capability running Android ICS, I would buy that phone in a heart beat.

I like their design but sadly they never have a single phone that's run on my carrier's frequency band.

After a minor fall, my screen is as good as dead

Hi there, just thought I would share this with you and ask what you think.
So, I have a Moto G 3rd (bought it a month ago), I quite liked it and was a good upgrade from my original Moto G. However, I never expected it to be so fragile. After one small fall (like 30 cm) my screen seems to be completely messed. I mean the display, as outside the phone is just fine, no cracks or anything, and it was the first time I dropped it. Here's a picture:

This is really disapointing, and I'm in complete shock, as probably warranty won't cover it and the phone was a major investment for me. Has any of you had a similar experience? Is the moto G not as resistant has it once was? The original one could take a LOT of damage, and it just dying like this on me breaks my heart.
So, what should I do? I contacted Motorola on the website and after a long talk they basically just told me to go to the store where I bought it, which I'll do thursday (it's far from where I live), but I fear they won't offer help. If they don't, is there a way to still send it to Motorola and pay for the repairs? I've tried china replacements on other phones and was never quite satisfied, and this is a new phone :/
Thanks for reading, needed to share my pain!

That's exactly what happened to my previous phone (samsung galaxy s3 neo). Screen was ok, also because it was protected by a tempered glass, but the lcd broke and only showed a few purple lines.
Unfortunately, the outside screen spare was quite cheap (30 euros) while the lcd repair was 120 euros, so I decided to buy the moto. A bumper should protect from this kind of accident.
I'm afraid it's bad news.

Hi guys, just here for a quick update.
I went back to the store and since the device was in very good shape they sent it to warranty and said it could go off has a gpu fault.
I'll update when I, hopefully, get it back!

Great news, let's keep finger crossed and hope they can fix it for free.

Hi again!
Just here to tell you guys I got my phone back and the repair was covered by warranty! Hope my story helps if anyone runs into similar trouble. It was fairly quick too! (2 weeks)
Bear in mind my phone only had 1 month and was in really good shape (no scratches).

android 5.1 smartphone for only 4$ Niceee

XD good, well, it's cheating, really it would be $ 7 taking into account shipping.
Browsing the internet I found this video, making a review of a mobile android $ 4. I assumed it was fake and such, but not only works, but the camera does not give much cancer as other mobile 20 times more expensive and has over cables and everything.
And in comments I saw people mentioning that it (albeit with a somewhat slow shipping) and who bought in this shop: shop251now.com/
Here is the video:
The only "negative" I see is that the battery is 1500mAh ... but for $ 4 is really something to complain about? xD
yeah

mine here is expensive than yours, samsung generally costs same with you even higher. the phones in low price are not likely to be the brand, chinese has many android phones, and they have good price with second or third famous brands.

I will give try just to see
