It's 5 hours of continuous talk time, which is about the same as EVERY other phone. 16 hours of Audio play, which is about as much as an IPOD. They didn't give any standby time. Obviously it's gonna last a lot more than 5 hours...

with all the great things that it does, it doesnt have 3g, which all new high end phones should for cingular. i dont see a mention of speakerphone, or a card slot. the internal memory is good, but i would rather have a card slot, much easier. Also, an FM radio would be great, its almost the standard with most of the new high end phones. surely it has speakerphone though.....RIGHT?? :thinking:

lol it really is a crock of shit man. i take that back on the japan part though, japan has its own network, (WCDMA??), which is why japanese phones will not work in america or europe. i dont know if you know anything about the sharp phones, but i had the sharp 903, BADASS phone, it was gsm unlocked. but the new sharp 904 is wcdma i believe, meaning it will only work in japan. greedy bastards

well, if its able to be unlocked to make calls, its not japan-only. if it makes calls, she just probably didnt have the sms or mms settings right

well since he already has the patent pretty much sealed, its going to be a tuning program for diagnostics and things like that like the snap on scanner type deals but hes also going to have some other goodies too built in like reading codes and data logging but only issue right now is a connectivity cable...

i dunno, i called moto and they told me since it was that certain phone, she couldnt receive or send it...hell idk, didnt really care since she was tmobile and conviently came into my store lirl

TeeJay
01-13-2007, 09:17 AM
damn....about the 904...

@Gouki
=======

Why would I buy a phone that I cannot use?

I know of plenty of people who bought one and sold it again.

And the point is: This phone cannot be used by anyone who is not a Japanese Citizen or Japanese Resident with a valid SOFTBANK Contract and enabled International Roaming.

Which excludes 99.9% of all GSM users...

This phone is brilliant, I used to own a SHARP 903SH. But it IS a PAPER WEIGHT for me as I will never be able to use it outside of Japan.
And I don't buy phones just so I can own it. I need to use them...

Doesn't that make sense?

Eh who cares if it has 3g or not. Most customers don't even go online to care of it really. And what's the big deal if it has expandable memory. It already comes with 4gb or 8gb which is more than you can purchase through expandable memory. Besides, a 2gb SD is $100, so who knows how much a 4gb card or an 8gb card is. FM is the standard? Helll no. Most people don't care about that. They tried putting radio's in phone and that shit didn't work out. If it would of worked out how they had planned, almost every phone made now would have FM, kinda like how every phone now has a camera and an mp3 player standard. :goodjob: It's obviously gonna have speakerphone. Besides, that phone was barely announced a few days ago. It hasn't even been approved by the FCC and it's EXPECTED to come out in June. They might make some changes by then :goodjob:

im not talkin about most customers, which are morons, im talkin about the ones that know their shit. i know 4 and 8 gb is a lot of memory, but im not a fan of internal memory only. besides, i got a 2gb mini sd layin around with no use :D i never said fm was the standard in all phones, i said high end phones. not the pieces of shit they give away with a contract. this phone IS supposed to be high end right?? with that price it better be. how has fm not worked out?? it worked great on my ericsson w600, and my nokias. and it only has a 2mp cam, that isnt quite the standard yet, but its getting close. i own a 3mp phone, and there are phones out with 5mp and 8mp cams, so there is def room for improvement

FM is not the standard on high end phones. Blackjack, Pearl, Treo 680/700/750, PPC, V3i etc do not have FM. I haven't seen a phone with FM on it in years. 2MP in AMERICA is pretty much high end right now. Unfortunately we do get shafted when it comes to getting the high end products here. Hell Cingular is barely going to start doing video calling during the summer. I've seen the phone's you've owned and the one's you posted for sale. They're sick ass phones, but they aren't available in America. Of course you can buy those phones on ebay and have them unlocked here for $20. But like you said, the average moron won't know how to do that.

Also, why would Apple include FM on the phone when they obviously want to push the whole ipod on a phone thing and encourage people to purchase itunes ;)

hahahaha, i dunno man, for 500 bucks....hmmmm. i did pay like 450 for my sharp 903 though, so i MIGHT do it if i can figure out how to unlock it. i cant pay that much for a phone thats locked to cingular, simply because the fact i have tmobile and only my gf would be able to use it :lmfao:

Man i'm pretty sure that phone will be able to be unlocked. Just like every other phone out there. Cellphone Clinic in Discover Mills should be able to do it, when the phone comes out. He's a really nice guy and is really reasonable when it comes to prices :goodjob:

GTKID.. If you are paying 100$ for a 2gb SD, sorry to say you are gettin ripped..

Check out Tiger Direct.. They got the 4g SD for only 60$ 15 for 1gb, and 25 for a 2gb..
Here's the link to the page where they sell them. > http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Category/category_tlc.asp?CatId=36&CMP=ILC-FPM12

:lmfao: Na I didn't say that's how much I get them for. I said that's how much they retail at stores for most of the time. That's how much we sell them at my Cingular store and that's how much the AVERAGE customer/person will pay for a car. I get mine at a whole lot lower price, even lower than what Tiger Direct has them for ;) :D .
