So you were talking about Push-to-talk technology.
I don't think it much of use & one can dump it. I have never seen anyone using it.

^^It does not say if its useful.

Anyway, whats the expected price of 5130XM in India ?

[Cool G5]

It is expected to be somewhere around Rs.5K~5.5K.

That 5130XM is a great phone......its got the specs of a 5220XM at a price 2k lower.

By the looks of it; it isnt useful.

3110c and 3500c are about to end their active product life and give their crown to 71000, 5130XM and the likes. The new phones offer considerably good features for similar price tags; the main being screen resolution/size. Hence I think; though 3110/3500 are good phones; it aint the right time to go for one.

[GeekyBoy]

^^ I agree, but 7100 supernova is never going to sell very well because of its unexpandable memory. 5130 XM is typically an upgrade to the nokia 5300 but at a price lower. Its got 8gb expandable mem(its specs are on gsmarena)
and a 2mp camera whereas 5300xm has oly a 1.3mp and a 2gb exp mem.

[MetalheadGautham]

Yeah, I think 3110c can still hold its hands down at the 4.5K category because 7100 lacks expandable memory.

But I think it makes a good internet browser phone.

Only 3500c will die, and I think 5130XM is going to rule.

NOWHERE can I find its REAL price, only its expected price. Many guys say here that it can take 15 more days to arrive. Me is going to wait. Waiting is good.

Whats the inbuilt memory in 7100? If my opinion counts, for browsing, 7100 will beat 3110 hands down. Higher resolution, qvga?

The Internal memory is just 4 MB No external slot to expand it. WTF !!!
The resolution is QVGA & it comes with OM for browsing.

Now, no one's gonna trade expandable memory just for a higher resolution, right ? Another thing to consider is its price: Rs 4600. Who will buy a phone with no expandable memory at that price, when better alternatives are available , at the same price point ? And it isn't good for browsing. It may have a larger screen, but where will the user store one's files ? The camera,etc and everything which requires storage will simply be useless on the 7100.

Absolutely!! And when it drops below the 5k level, I'm gonna buy one

[MetalheadGautham]

Haven't ANY of you guys bothered to check at a local store about the release date of 5130XM ? Nobody quoted me the price, but one guy said it can come in another two weeks. This is in Bangalore.

One thing I would really like to tell people that if we've started a thread, we can change its title by ourselves. Just EDIT the 'Title' text field in your 1st post...........

If only it was that easy. You cannot change the thread title yourself. The method you suggested only changes the title of the first post. The thread title can only be changed my moderators and administrators.

I'm not that n00b that I'll make statements before trying it out: the official CRICKET thread Go through this thread. I've changed it myself.

I was also thinking that this can be done only by the admins/moderators, but then I just thought of trying to change the title of the 1st post, voila it worked.

Well, the posts which were replied to the previous title of the thread, "the CRICKET channel" have this as their reply title and after when I had changed the name of the thread to "the official CRICKET thread", have the posts have "the official CRICKET thread" as their reply title and not to forget, when we go through the Chit-chat section, the name of the thread we see is, "the official CRICKET thread".......

The title of the thread is actually determined by the title of the 1st post of the thread.

And not to forget, do have a look at "Offtopic" at the beginning of this post.

Some things are very simple but they are ignored.....

Wrong you are.

Take a look at the new title of first post and thread title in this thread now.

I don't know but it is working even after 5 minutes for the testing thread which I've created in the Chit Chat section...

Well, it isn't working here for you...

1st it was "testing" http://img219.imageshack.us/my.php?i...0092991eo2.jpg
Then I edited my 1st post and made it "testing - 1-2-3-4" http://img219.imageshack.us/my.php?i...3781659lb5.jpg

Now you can yourself go and see what it is.

I've edited it after 5 minutes and it is "testing - 1-2-3-4-5-6-7" testing - finished

I've been able to change it again to "testing - finished" after almost 25 minutes through my other ancient computer which got Arch:




It even works after 5 minutes....

Well anyhow, sorry for taking the discussion off the topic.

Okay, it works approxiamately for about 30-45 minutes.

[MetalheadGautham]

^^Hmm... then I guess that five minutes limit is the time within which you can make an edit and not have the "edited at blah blah" time.
