Mobile phone for use with N800?
I got me a N800 a couple of months ago, and I'm loving it. Now my mobile phone has died, and I need a new one.
My only major requirements for it is 3G and wlan, but of course, it should have some kind of mp3 player, the basic web-surfing capabilities etc. However, this phone will most of the time be used together with the N800, and though I'm not on an extremely tight budget, I wouldn't want to spend way much more than I need. So what reasonable phone can I get that doesn't "overlap" too much with the N800? (I prefer Nokia or Sony Ericsson, but I am open to try new products) |

Here is a list of phones known to work
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/Bluetooth...ight=%28dun%29 I personally have tried the Moto KRZR Moto Q (kinda works with pdanet but its a crappy phone) Sanyo SCP-8400 and now I am using the Samsung SPH-M620 UpStage All of these phones have been CDMA phones. I really like the speed sprint offers. |

IIm probably going with the E65. In Norway carriers really aren't an issue. Most carriers
give a discount on any phone if you agree to be with them for a while, after a year or two you can switch at will. Of course one can get any phone without a carrier, for a higher price of course. |

The upstage paired with no problem at all. I do pay for the phone as a modem plan.
When they first activated the phone for me it wouldnt connect as a modem. Then after a restart it worked great. One thing you have to remember when using the upstage, its not an ipod! Don't try to use the touch panel like a click wheel. If you do it will do really funny things. Sprint's network is pretty fast I generally get 400-500Kbps, but sometimes during the day when the network is busy it drops to about 300Kbps. Overall I am happy with the upstage for now. I would love a blackberry but they don't support bluetooth DUN profile and I dont want to have to add software to make it work. The moto Q is really crappy and for some reason when I installed pdanet to tether via bluetooth I could only get about 150Kbps-200Kbps. And I constantly had to restart the phone because bluetooth would stop working. |

Re: Mobile phone for use with N800?
YEah thats the plan. I use the phone as a modem with my laptop and n800

Re: Mobile phone for use with N800?
I use a Nokia N95 with my N800. Everything works perfectly, can pull photos and videos I shoot on the N95 straight over to the N800 for viewing, which is pretty rad.
I don't find EDGE slow, which is all I can do on T-Mobile US. I haven't ever used WCDMA/UMTS in the United States, so I'm not missing anything ;) |
