    I was told by meteor today (via email) that their network is indeed compatable with the nokia 6600 and that it will be possible to send and recieve mms on their network and that they support ANY GPRS phone.

    hi , someone on the FS Mobiles made a post saying a Voda CSR said that the standard WAP/MMS settings should now work with the 6600

    as they didn't before can someone on Vodafone (with a 6600 ;)) check to see if anything has changed now as it's been a while since anyone has posted that they tried...

    thanks,

    I have a 6600 on O2 no joy with the GPRS or MMS yet but im told they have a test WAP2 gateway so hopefully i will be able to sort somthing.

    Slightly off topic i have a Sony Ericson P900 here as well wouldn't recomend it to anyone... not impressed at all. The 6600 is much nicer then i thought it would be it looks bigger then it is in most pictures. Loads of featuers. Only issue so far is its very slow to do any thing...

    thanks for the O2 update,

    i'd recommend a P900 to anyone who's requirements were a close match to the features it provided - it would be closer to the likes of an XDA (II) device - a Series 60 handset offers a different kind of 'experience' for someone over a UIQ based device discusses a bit in this thread

    Have an XDAII as well but wound't compare it to a P900 ;)

    The quality of the speaker phone fuction is terrible espically in comparison to the XDA II

    I ran V-Rally on the P900 and that was pretty impresive but pointless as it was impossible to controll.

    well they both have their strengths and weaknesses - i find the P900's phone elements and Bluetooth better - the design is also easier for one handed use with it's size fitting the hand better and the Jog-Dial making it easy to get around, the battery also lasts longer for me then the XDA II

    sure the XDA II can also have advantages being a true PDA centric device, SD/MMC memory expansion, option of an expansion pack for CF/Video Out/extended battery), SDIO WiFi capability

    never had a big problem with the speaker phone feature on either device though - but I'd be more inclined to use a Bluetooth headset with them rather than in speaker phone mode

    i know people who wouldn't give the Pocket PC Phone Ed. any time and prefer UIQ devices, and vice-versa, i find myself being a bit more objective as neither is perfect...
