My first Motorola phone - A780

Filed under: Mobile, Hardware, Cell Phones — timwang @ 03:56:10 am

Went to the legendary "Cell Phone Mall" today and could not resist, bought the brand new Motorola PDA/Media/Cell Phone - A780. Love the phone, some worth to mention features: 1.3 megapixel camera with full-screen viewfinder; Video record/playback and streamed video* playback; MP3 player supporting MIDI/WAV/AMR/WMA, Real and AAC files; Embedded Bluetooth wireless technology; Viewer for PDF and Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents; Java (J2ME) MIDP 2.0 with 3D Graphics; Internet access via WAP 2.0, WML, xHTML, HTML (Opera7). Going back to the mall tomorrow to get a 256 MB flash card and a bluetooth ear plug then I will be all set... What else do I need? maybe a portable data projector based on my watch... :)

Sorry for lack of blog lately, just too much to write and don't know where to start...

Hi Tim,

Just curious.. I know the Canadian cell phone industry is such that the phones can only be used on particular networks. Are these going to be able to used with your current provider?

Oh, and while you are there... can you get me one? (grin, just kidding... I'll just sit back and wallow in geek-envy).

"too much to write and don't know where to start..." - completely sympathise with that one Tim. When you get some useful advise about coping with meaning overload, please pass it on to me! My solution at present is the march of time combined with the delete button.

Hi Michelle, all cell phones you get in Asia are opened to all zones, just like the DVD players. Therefore, it would work with Fido or Roger's service (card based), but not Telus. Let me know if you need one, you will look cool using a top notch phone while others are sticked to berry phone. :)
