Ach! I'm just as confused now!

Just read a review of the top 20 phones in the world.. HTC desire came out top?? :conf:

I've got a Blackberry, had mine for about a year and a half now.

I bought mine because of the physical qwerty keyboard, physical being the main reason (I didn't like touchscreen phones at the time, they were crap and unresponsive).

It's been great, never had any problems with it, decent apps, the internet browser isn't the best but I downloaded Opera Mini which is amazing. BBM is good if you know people with BlackBerries, probably a bit useless if you don't. The camera isn't that good imo, I'll post a picture I took with mine:



I think it's a bit grainy and the video recording is even worse. I don't use the camera too much but you said it's important to you so that's something to consider.

I'd definitely recommend a BB, but I'd probably say get an iPhone if you've got the money and haven't got an iPod Touch. I had an iPod Touch when I got my phone so couldn't see the point of paying an extra £180 + £35 a month for something I'd already got with an added phone feature.

Wouldn't rule out an Android though, I'd take a look at the Samsung Galaxy S before you make up your mind. I think I'm gonna get either that or the BB Torch when I can get an upgrade.

rofl @ that number plate boothy

i dont get it

:p

It's not mine or anything lol.

It was a smart car done up to looks like a Ferrari that I saw in London so took a photo of it. It looked better from the back but that's the only photo I can find now.

Ok no-one listened to my previous post.

I'll forgive you cause most people don't know much about Palm but the thing is many consumer sites would agree with me in saying that they make excellent devices. The Palm Pre was the first serious contender to the iPhone but thanks to a delayed launch and poor advertising it didn't receive the fanfare it deserved.

That was 2 years ago. Now the Pre 2 has been released, the hardware is better than ever. All current Palm phones run Palm's webOS operating system. It makes running multiple apps simple and intuitive. Each app you open is housed in a 'card'. You can have many different 'cards' running at the same time. If you want to close an app you can just flick the card up and off the screen. This vid is a little long but this guy is testing the multitasking capabilities of a Pre 2 and the previous Palm Pre Plus:

See that? If you really wanted to you could run over 50 apps at the same time on a Palm Pre 2. Now tell me that ain't impressive..

The camera on it is 5 megapixels which is decent. Obviously its not gonna replace your digital camera but it will do the job for the odd picture.

The Pre 2 also has a hardware keyboard. Oh and it integrates all of you social networking services seamlessly. The Pre 2 also has some good games on it's app store - the Palm App Catalog. Many popular iPhone games are available on Palm phones, something you wouldn't find on a Android device or a Blackberry. And belieeeeve me I'm ditching an Android phone for a Pre 2. The amount of grief my phone has given me has driven me mad. Its buggy, slow and it crashes a lot.

This might be a slight downside but you can only buy the Palm Pre 2 direct from Palm for £399. Thats what I did.

But it's so ugly niall :(

does palm have angry birds?

if not it can rot in hell

I like it though :( I think its pretty :D

Besides, Palm are rumoured to be getting ready to release some new phones in the next few weeks so if you don't like that one, there should be another one coming out soon. :)

Yes! Did anyone watch my previous video!? :bawling:

no :joker:

:bawling:

But yeah Palm have loads of 3D games. They have Need For Speed, Sims 3. You'd be surprised at how many great apps they have. Its just everyone overlooks them. :(

If you're a texter forget the iPhone.

I had a play about with my brother in law's HTC Desire the other day.. I've decided I MUST have one! :D

im a texter and i can text on the iphone better than any other.

:bored:




























The Palm Pre 2 is so much better though..

Loving my new Desire! :D

Did you download Angry Birds?! :amazed:

not yet.. but I will.

What other apps are good?

Oh there are loads lol! :hugesmile:

Shopsavvy - you can scan barcodes to see where the cheapest price for a product is.

Google goggles - similar to Shopsavvy but it scans a picture of something then searches the internet for it.

Unblock Me Free - a game thats really addictive.

Labyrinth - another good app. The free version has about 10 levels but the full version has loads more.

I can't think of any others atm. :laugh:

I've got Google Goggles (how good is it??) and the barcode scanner thing.. Oh and Angry Birds now :amazed:
I also got Google sky maps which is suppoesd to be good but it's been cloudy/foogy here every night since I downloaded it!
Cant' think what else I've got...
