Comment on 21+ remarkable features of Android 2.2 FroYo by mark

Thanks to 2.2 Froyo, I now have to carry an old paper address book because it only stores phone number & email address. All my phones over the years, Nokias & Motorolas mostly have had this feature since 1995 – the year I gave up carrying a paper address book… until now. I also have to carry a pair of reading glasses, because the scant info the phone gives me is in fine print that would do a shonky contract proud. I didn’t like an Iphone because it feels too big in my pocket, but now I have to carry a bag to carry all the support equipment for my HTC with Froyo. I think I’ll jump ship & get an Iphone. Everyone I know with an Iphone is happy with it. Hey I’ll be big about it, I made a mistake choosing an Android phone over an Iphone. “nuf said.

Comment on Sony Ericsson Xperia Active – a new waterproof Android phone for fitness fanatics by Andrew

I cannot have a camera phone at work, how difficult would it be to remove the camera from the phone? Is there any breakaway strips that would be broken to get to the camera or any seals that would be broken.

The article mentioned the use of ANT+ during swimming and how it didn’t work to well. How well does the gps work during swimming. Could it be used to track swimming distances?

I like Sony Ericsson Satio for its wondrous performance, applications, quality, shapes and most importantly- its 12.1 megapixel camera, despite the critics about its slightly inferior camera ability as compared to Nokia N8. I’ll buy this, right away!

The official app does support multiple accounts. When you open it up hit the option/tab button on the bottom left. Then choose “accounts” and you should see an option to add an account.

Comment on Latest Japanese phones not looking good by admin

Sorry, Sheneek, no offence meant. Indeed, I even said “it’s obviously unfair to compare it to the much more expensive iPhone.”

The point I was trying to make was simply that the different markets across the world have fundamentally shifted in recent years. Across Europe and the US, Japanese phones were famous for being years ahead of anything we had. But with the advent of the iPhone and touch, it’s the software that matters more now, not the hardware, and here, the US leads (and as a European who was proud of Nokia’s lead and Symbian’s UK roots, I find that galling!)

Comment on Deal of the week: HTC Desire HD for just £12 a month by admin

Sorry to hear that Chris. I’ve had mine for over a year now without problems. It was a little dodgy to begin with, but an HTC update fixed that within a month of me having it. No problems since.
