YBPGuide: iphone alternatives

  • Wing Owner · 2 years ago
    THATS NOT THE WING and it's not a "cousin" of the sidekick they have nothing to do with each other, it doesnt have a rotating screen, and it has a totally different interface.... it comes with windows mobile 6... http://news.ecoustics.com/bbs/messages/10381/35...

    wing owner...

    thanks for clarification. updated the pic. i'm still going to call it the sidekick's cousin only because they share the same carrier. maybe it's the older, more mature cousin considering it's windows OS.

    Yeah man, it's cool, just wanted to let you know, it has NOTHING to do with the sidekick :p

    Wing is no cousin to sidekick. Maybe a cousin to iPhone. If you look online "Slide 2 Unlock" and "Wisbar Advance" make the Wing look like an iPhone, then again, with great power, comes great responsibility, and the power of the Wing makes it responsible for all the iPhone disses, WITH REASON.

    I have not seen a good alternative or anything that makes the tech geek in my salivate like the iPhone. I think the competition will really be once it is finally on the streets.

    Although I want an iPhone really bad, I am starting to have issues with their marketing campaign.

    the original picture i had up that seems to be creating a little raucous is here.

    i had originally google image'd 't-mobile wing' and this pic came up. i finally read the article (from 2005 btw) and just saw that the words 'the German wing of T-mobile unveiled...'

    d'oh!

    What about the Treo? I has more features than the iphone...And a lower price tag!
  • Fredric · 2 years ago
    i left it out mainly b/c it is being touted as a smartphone than a uber media device. does the treo come with that much memory or allow a big enough card to hold 100 songs?
