[Ethan_Hunt]

Dude for a second there i thought we was a newbie but the 74 post count jst shocked me out

Are u new here?????

Just post all these queries of urs in one single thread and then wait for replies....its a big pain relpyin for every single one serparately....had just been done with a dude doing the same like u before

Btw yea bluetooth dongles are available in wide range of mobile shops....if in Mumbai u can stroll down to Heera Panna,Indraprasth,Lammy road and many others....u can get These dongles pricing from 1k ranging to 3k depending on the Range and its make

U just need to connect this dongle to ur PC and Transfer ur Wallpapers,ringotnes etc. Via The Nokia pc suite software to ur mobile phone

[drgrudge]

A BlueTooth dongle of range 10mt will cost around 800 and the same with 100mt range will cost around 1800.

I dont know abt T610, but for 6600, i can tell.

You will need a bluetooth (bt) adaptor for ur PC. You have two options:

1. A card that plugs into the PCI slot of a PC and has a external antenna for communication-- cumbersome to use.

2.USB bt adaptors:these tiny devices plug into ur USB port and work as a interface for bt comm with lappy or cellphone.

The advantage of using a USB adaptor is that u can remove it when not needed and plug it into another PC or lappy without any hassle.

These adaptors are rated on the range they cover:a 10 m adaptor will cost rs 1000, where as a adaptor with 100m range will cost u rs1800.

U will need some nokia phone managers like o2 or nokia PC suite.
The windows sp2 has a feature for bluetooth transfer and after u install the drivers, u are ready to go. Whenever u send a file, ur PC will ask if u wanna save the file. So, it's simpale.

Hey man Why are posting without searching the forum. I have seen that more than 50% of your questions are worthless or discussed earlier in this forum.

Please be Gentle.

[Charley]

Kapil, leave me alone... I've already told umpteen times that I'm a newbie just learning to navigat around the forum.......

If ur p issed off then dont answer......

[enoonmai]

All allwyn and kapil were saying was that it would easier to track your questions and answer them in they were all in one place instead of being spread out everywhere on the forum. As for the T-610, the best thing to do is to ge a USB Bluetooth dongle, and then install the software that comes along with the adapter (the BT2.0 drivers that Microsoft provides along with WinXP SP2 usually doesn't deliver the full functionality as the specific WIDCOMM/CSR driver)
Once you're done installing it, click the My Bluetooth Places icon on the desktop, follow the setup instructions and make sure you enable Synchronization, Serial Port, OBEX File Transfer and anything else you want. Once you're done, go to Phone Monitor options in Control Panel and then turn on the Bluetooth function on the T610. The phone will be detected and you will be asked to pair the device with the computer. Enter the same PIN on both the PC/T610. Following that you will asked to add your phone and SIM to Phone Monitor. Do so and then check out what Serial Port has been setup during the installation of the phone and then in Phone Monitor>COM Ports click the COM port and click "Enable" and "Reserve" and that's it - you're done. You will be able to sync data between the phone and the PC without a hitch.
And the next time around, make sure you put all your queries in one place. Just trying to help!

Tks dude....

Then I cud trasf games too from the comp but how since they have lots of files in the software......


Is it possible to synchronise the phone book , schedules and tasks to the comp too?

[Scorpion]

Synchronising is possible for every thing including SMS, just use some oxygen phone manager to connect to the virtual serial port. It works fine.

[Charley]

Oxygen phone mgr ? Where can i get it ?

[hikapil]

Get it Here

[Charley]

dude thats pay and i dont have a credit card yet......

Any free sites to get it from .......

Lol

[hikapil]

MaN,

Please check ur PM.

[Charley]

didnt u get areply back

tks......

[enoonmai]

Remember Oxygen Phone Manager is only for Nokia phones. And yes, you can synchronize everything with the phone, including your pictures, ringtones, calendars, appointments, tasks, notes, you name it.

[Scorpion]

For Sony ericcson phone, nothing beats the fma (floAts Mobile Agent).
Google it, its free. Some sourceforge site as far as I remember. Don't know if the same prog. works for Nokia.

[Charley]

Does it work for the PDA's as well?

Some PDAS have WIFI too can they be used to transf to & from comp?


Tks.

[enoonmai]

Yes, it works for PDAs as well. You can use the Outlook conduit provided by Chapura PocketMirror that comes bundled along with the Palm PDA. If you have a PocketPC PDA, you can use ActiveSync.

[Charley]

Dude tell me whether I shud go in for a PDA or Nokia 6630 so it has all the functions and specifics.............

[enoonmai]

Depends on your use, actually. If you want a bigger screen, larger capacity, support for WiFi, better browsing/email capabilities, etc, go in for a PDA. If you dont use those all too often and prefer a longer battery life, smaller size, go in for the phone. True smartphones and smartphone-cum-PDAs are still too expensive for the end user, even a corporate one.

6630 costs around 25k. A "good PDA" will cost more than that. It all depends on ur requirements.

CASE for 6630:
1. 6630 has EDGe which PDA's dont have.
2. 1 hr. non stop video recording

CASE against 6630:
1. If u want email and browsing and other stuffs like this then dont go for 6630.
2. No wifi, with it u can have access to internet with wifi's hubs. Dont in india, this isnt matured as yet.
3. PDA's will have a large screen, compared to 6630

So, it goes down to ur requirements and what kind of features u look forward to.

[Charley]

how did u get 25 k .... I placed an order for 29,500 grants. .....

Then shud prbly go for the nokia set........ I havent owned a PDA , just very curious abt it ...... Does any body here have a PDA?

This 1 has a large screen - Nokia .... But its a little 2 big cos of the buldge on the sides , they cud have squared it up..... Anyway I'm happy abt it......

[drgrudge]

Have you seen 9500 from nokia? IT's a sort of pda and mobile phone as well. IT has a hell lot of features!
Check out the review here:
http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12807

And btwn, it costs rs. 40k

[Charley]

Glanced thru it and shut it quickly cos I cant ever think how much I convinced my parents 2 buy this 1 ........ Just cos I got I grade in MBA , they intended on buying me that.........

Dude, have u used a PDA bfore or do u own any of them? How does it wrk compared 2 a smartphone?

[enoonmai]

I've got a Palm Tungsten T3 and I can tell you, its no substitute for a phone, which is why I have my Sony Ericsson T610. If there's one thing I've learned in all my life with gadgets, is to never substitute one device for another. A PDA is a great gadget to keep you organized on the move and to provide instant Internet connectivity, no matter where you are.
A smartphone on the other hand bundles everything in one package, from your phone to all your PDA functions, from syncing your calendar, tasks, appointments, notes, etc. and even takes care of your emails on the go. But its got its own share of problems. With a PDA, once you're done using it, you can shut if off and forget about it, which is something you cant do with a smartphone, because its also managing your calls. And since a smartphone uses color screens and a fast processor, the power drain on the batteries is significant and if you're a real power user you will be forced to look for electrical outlets wherever you go to charge it up. Of course, you can guess what will happen when you're stuck in a traffic jam, without a nearby power outlet, and working on a Word document, when your smartphone beeps to warn you of a low battery, and you know you're expecting a very, very, important call in the next half an hour. Bye, bye, call!
Get a Zire 72 and a good mid-range phone from either Nokia or Sony Ericsson instead of looking at the advanced Treos and the P910s. You will save yourself a lot of headaches in the long run.

[Charley]

Nice documentation to a query , might i say a tutorial..... U've just revamped my II or III sense ......

How many $$$$$ ( Rupee Range ) did the tung cost u.... I still have my T-610 which my bro uses it ... Its memory is just not enough abt 2mb...... Wht can u downlaod except for a few pics ......

Wht if the PDA gets busted , how much wud the parts cost for servicing here , is there a service centre for each of the brands here ..

Whts the color screen size 4 a PDA? It doesnt have edge BTW? Whts the memory like?

Can that be connected 2 a laptop ? Why wudnt people go 4 it since there are high end smart phones which cost the same compared 2 a PDA..... The guys who stay in the apartment have lots of these gizmos, but prefer smarts phns 2 PDA's

Tks......

[enoonmai]

I got it as a birthday gift from a friend in the US, so no pricepoints I can give you, however, I think it retails for $250 to $350 at most stores in the US, so its cheaper than buying the Zire 21 here.
I was not talking about using the SE-T610 to store anything. I just use it as an address book, to remember extremely important events and as a simple phone with BlueTooth that I can connect to the Internet with and browse on the T3. Palm does have a couple of service centers here, but I have no idea how much it would cost to fix it. I've never had to go there, but I would guess it would be costly, yes, simply because they would have to get the parts from some other country. EDGE is for mobile phones and smartphones only, not for PDAs.
The screen size is 320x240 and the best part is that the case can be opened up to show more screen space or go into widescreen mode (480x320). The in-built memory is 64MB and you can always add an SDIO or an MMC card to expand your memory size.
Yes, you can connect it to a laptop with a WiFi card and I guess people go for high-end smartphones simply because for many of them, style matters over substance and they've got lots of money and dont mind if their battery dies in the middle of the day.

T 610 and Nokia 6600 are both one of the best sets for bluetooth data transfer
U should use:-
Orchid bluetooth adapter with Widcomm software
or Bluesoliel dongle with Bluesoliel software provided in the CD with the dongle
Bluetooth data transfer speed are upto 700 KBps
