There isn't anything bad about the phone i have found so far and i have had the phone for about 1 month and have vast experience with cell phones and cell phone/pda and this is by far the best device i have ever used.Samsung a740 portable keyboard rating ipod portable speakers way asphalt machine portable portable marine gps portable playpens water. Use Hitchhiker to connect to Access Points. The wifi is great, I've wardriven with it and picked up TONS of hot-spots- the app to use is Wififofum. Phone quality is excellent and LOUD, compared to the ever so soft Blackberry 7290!!Ģ GB minisd card for 36 bucks off newegg- completely awesome upgradeĬleartouch anti-glare screen protector off of protects screen and is custom fitted. Some say the phone is slow, but it is a dual core processor which can be overclocked (lose battery life, but everything opens instantaneously at 252mhz) I have had a Moto: i55, Rokr, MPX200 Nokia: 3595, 3120 Audiovox: SMT 5600 RIM: Blackberry 7290. I have an I-mate K-JAM and it is the best mobile phone/pda i have ever owned. I-mate KJAM/Tmobile MDA/Cingular 8125 ROCKS! It truly is a pinnacle of awesomeness.until Cingular releases the 8525 (Cingy's version of the TyTn). If you want to get the most out of it, you'll need to do a few tweaks, download a few programs, and you'll have a device that can do it all. It's smaller than the SX66, but it's pretty thick which makes it difficult to slip it in and out of your pockets. Another drawback would be that you must use the touch screen to dial numbers (don't forget the Eten dialing screen and a quality screen protector). It's extendable but still a little small for my tastes. Overclocking helps alleviate the problem somewhat. Clocked in at 200Mhz, it can feel sluggish at times especially if you're multitasking. Wi-Fi is always a good thing to have, and with a simple registry hack you'll have a 802.11g device for better compatibility.Īs for the drawbacks, one would be the processor. I prefer it to the thumb keyboard on my SX66 and I like how it changes the orientation when slid out. It also has the usual array of PPC features and functions. There is no keypad anywhere on this device, so you have to use the touchscreen (I recommend using the Eten dialing skin because the onscreen keypad buttons are larger compared to stock). Dialing phone #'s is a bit of a nuisance but one quickly gets used to it. One handed operation is doable (wish it had a few more hardware buttons, but it does fit in your hand quite well despite the thickness) and downloading "smartskey" helps out even more.
It performs well in the RF department and and decent call quality (suffers a bit when you're in a low signal area). The 8125 is a good phone with all the features of a PPC. Cingular didn't have any refurb SX66s, so I was offered the 8125. My SX66 decided to crap out on me so I had to XBM it. You will not be disappointed.Īwesomeness rolled up in a small (but really thick) package. I know phones more then most, I will say this If anyone is on the fence about buying this, take a chance. I don't think I've ever given any review for any product the full rating. Tmobiles internet sucks right now, waiting for them to upgrade to broadband in 07 with the new spectrum they bought. +Comes with nice magnetic button leather case, 2 stylus, data cable. +Functionality and Versitility second to none. +Insane Stability compared to other PDA's.
The I830 may come close, but a little overclocking on the MDA widens that gap. Nothing they have at the moment compares even slightly to the stability of this device. Working 2 years as a technician for Verizon, I've had alot of experience with bum phones/PDA's. I've installed countless applications on it, everything from TV Remote, to E-mobile TV, to trying unsuccessfuly to run Quake for PPC. Not a single reboot, freeze up, soft-reset since turning it on for the first time. I have not been more happy or giddy about an electronic device since my first Nintendo. So almost 2 years later, I took a gamble and bought another PDA, THE MDA. My first was an HP Ipaq from T-mobile last year. I bought my MDA about a 2 weeks ago from tmobile at full retail.
I had to get a windows based PDA device due to the fact that with any other OS's, the functionality is non-existent (treo's etc.) Holy Smoke! Not a single Freezeup, or reset required yet!
