I keep seeing phones that are more or less computers. I think
this is a good development but I keep asking myself, do I really
need something like that?
that really depends on what you want the device to do for you.
I have a rather outdated Nokia but some of its features are not
supported by MTN (UTL and Celtel are the same as far as I know)
there are some advanced techology features like GPRS, WAP, blah blah
that are provider-depedent, and there are those other features like
calender, bluetooth, video recording, camera, tasks, storage
manager, advanced sms and call management,
pdf/spreadsheet/prsentations/etc.... that are just features on the
phone,, and that really depends on wether you are a 'mobile
professional' or not.
Of what use would such a phone be here?
i have a similar device, and believe me, I am starting to find
myself not able to live without it (my wife is already complaining) :-)
Am sure there are applications for it in the developed world but
lets face the facts, we live in Uganda.
uganda is developing much faster than you think, esp in ICT.
cheers,
