Sony Ericsson's TM506 for T-Mobile spied in FCC pages {Engadget Mobile}

Jun 19th 2008 9:09PM FINALLY!!!

Sony Ericsson for T-Mobile!!!

Every time I heard about a new SE mobile coming out on AT&T, I would become extremely disappointed that I had T-Mobile, but now we're getting some of the good phones!

WOOHOO!!!

There should be a party for this! :)

Lenovo has some funny-ha-ha times at MacBook Air's expense {Engadget}

Jun 17th 2008 11:26PM @ Zak - The Air definitely makes more compromises then the Lenovo. While the Air has a bit more power under it's hood and more ram, that's not everything to a computer user.

On a day to day basis, a user will need the USB ports more than the...what, .6 ghz?, increase of processing power in the air.

Some may also need an optical drive more too, as well as the other things that the X300 has built in.

Yes, the Air has more power and yes, it has more ram - but the X300 can function just as fine with what it has without doing away with an optical drive, 2 usb ports, wireless broadband card, as well as other things.

Plus, the X300 has ram that is upgradeable as well as a user-replaceable battery.

Did I also mention that more businesses will chose Windows over OSX based on how universal it is?

This isn't to say the Air sucks and the X300 is better than it on all aspects.

This is only in response to your statement saying that the X300 is making more compromises than the MBA, when it's obvious that during everyday usability, it's actually the Air that's making more of the compromises.

Simply put, the Lenovo has all the basic elements that make it a computer away from home, while the Air is more of an internet browser away from home (don't try to say you could rip movies to the Air's hard drive or do some other processor intensive task because with the Air's horrendous battery life and non-user replaceable battery, you may as well bring a portable generator or make sure you're constantly near an outlet).

Jun 7th 2008 1:19PM Also, I forgot to add that it has a built-in optical drive (CD/DVD burner) and built-in bluetooth.

Jun 7th 2008 12:34PM I'll still stick w/ my Sony Vaio T350P...

4-7 hours of battery life depending on the usage, built-in cellular card (I had mine unlocked and use T-Mobile), comfortable keyboard, snappy performance, all in a diminutive size and weight.

Next ultraportable I'll upgrade to will probably be a UMPC such as the OQO Model 02.

Samsung's t339 for T-Mobile: yep, it does HotSpot@Home {Engadget Mobile}

May 23rd 2008 9:47AM Lol, AT&T sucks...

We had them before and the service was crap and their customer service was even worse.

The only thing good about them is their phone selection...

May 23rd 2008 9:40AM Ever thought of getting your phone checked out?

T-Mobile's latest pair of cheap Samsungs: meet the T229 and T339 {Engadget Mobile}

May 23rd 2008 9:38AM SE's phones are in no way related to the towers.

I'm not saying that the towers aren't by SE, I'm just saying that don't trash their handsets because of their towers(I'm not even sure if they make ALL the towers).

SE's handsets are great. Having owned over 10, they're more reliable than a handset from any other manufacturer. Nokia's have failed and Motorola's are just crap.

The worst problem I've had with an SE is for it to freeze and require a restart.

The only phone that has actually worked consistently well that wasn't made by SE, were the 5 Samsung's I've owned.
