and beautiful devices like this would be a great place to start (yes I realize it already runs linux, but i'm talking a standard set of smartphone distros.)]]>Mar 17th 2006 10:58AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://wirelessimports.com/ProductDetail.asp?ProductID=603

Take the camera: I can not get a half decent picture from the camera. Every picture I take has motion blur. The phonebook only has entries for a single telephone number -- get that, a single field for a single telephone number. That means 2 entries if I want to include my wife's mobile and her office number. Click on dial and you get a dial pad, that's it! Redial numbers are 3 menus deep. I might was well just input the numbers, it's quicker! Voice activation, never works! Ringer types: loud, soft, vibrate. no ascending. no profiles. PC connection software -- rubbish. Have yet to get it to fully sync, bluetooth keeps losing connection.

Don't waste your money, the A1200 is total rubbish!]]>Dec 13th 2006 9:23AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/Apr 2nd 2007 1:44AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/

If I buy the ming, it would be my first time with Linux and smartphones, so please excuse total duh-ness factor of question.]]>May 9th 2007 11:34AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/Jun 21st 2007 4:41PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/Oct 11th 2007 6:57PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/03/17/motorola-a1200-ming-linux-based-smartphone/
