Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Really like my new Samsung SPH-I300
I had a minor accident with my old cell phone, I was about 50' up setting up a new network connection at work and my phone was knocked out of it's clip. I replaced it with the [link|http://www.samsungelectronics.com/mobile_phone/wireless_terminals/cdma_pcs/sph_i300_features.html|SPH-I300], a combination color-palm and cell phone. I had to switch from Cingular to Sprint as the SPH-I300 only works with Sprint.

The phone works well, though I'm still getting used to the "soft buttons". There's no tactical feedback so I can't dial "blind" like I did on my old phone. This isn't a problem for frequently called people though as you can set up 20 voice dialed numbers. Voice dialing is triggered via a hard button on the side of the phone. The other problem is the display can be hard to see in bright sunlight(especially if you wear polorized sun glasses). The phone display is customizable, there's 4 preset button designs and options to show the sprint logo, your phone number, or a customizable text message such as "Darrell's Phone". I don't know if you can add addition button designs, though late last night I discovered apps specificially for the SPH-I300. I'll be trying these this weekend:

[link|http://www.pdaapps.com/I300PictureCallerID/default.html|I300PictureCallerID] shows photo of caller(based on caller ID)
[link|http://www.geocities.com/blairerickson/|Quick SPH-i300 Skin Kit] - change the graffiti section graphics and the phone mode's "Sprint logo" graphic

While I'm picking up graffiti, I still prefer the Newton's MP2100 HWR. One of the things hanging me up is I keep getting 41 instead of 4 :-)

One of the coolest(to me anyway) thing's I've found so far is the [link|http://www.ateliersoftware.com/palm/scc.html|SimCity] port. Mega fun.

After trying out a few photo apps, I settled on [link|http://www.splashdata.com/splashphoto/index.htm|SplashPhoto]. Very easy to use, and a bargain at $10.

I'm not quite ready to stop using my Newton MP2100 though, I need to come up with way to transfer all my notes to the Palm. Anybody have an ideas? It's possible that since I have the [link|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=44707|wireless NIC for my Newton] that I could use the [link|http://homepage.mac.com/LightyearDesign/NPDS/|Newton web server package] and extract my information that way.

New Found a nice user site
[link|http://sphi300.com/|SHP-I300.COM], found a couple image collections for the Grafitti Hack package. Also found this site, [link|http://www.freewebz.com/i300-fanatic/|i300-fanatic], with a lot of logo and grafitti replacements.

New Re: Can you post here with it - I can't with my ...

iPaq. B thing can't get past 1st base.

Am about to try with the Zaurus.

Last night (after many weeks ) I finally had the time to get my wi-fi working again.

New Re: As can be seen from my tests ...

The Linux Zaurus now works so that I can read & post new messages & updates. 3 months ago I couldn't.

The iPAQ was giving two types of error last night but I also noticed that some strange things were happeing in trying to access parts of US from my normal LAN so can't be sure where blame lies.

With Win2002 I can read the forums, I can select to reply, it asks for login etc: then when I say SAVE the response or post I get the error (seems similar to what you reported). #2 - Zope Error ..... Error Type: name error, Error Value: Forumid. (now that I had the time to look I see it doesn't actually say Win2002 is crap as I reported earlier (grin)).

I wonder if Opera Browser (the one that now works with ZOPE on my Zaurus) would work on Win2002 or if the administrator justifiably doesn't waste his time trying to support MSIE on Win2002.

Cheers

Doug

Life is too short for tears. I recommend flatulence. It appeals to more senses.
