the not-so-new PDA

I got my new PDA! The Dopod 900. Its spose to be much better than my previous one, the 838pro. (owh, the repair cost is rm2133!) Actually, i did’t expect it to be so damn huge and bulky. It is!! The previous owner had also changed the battery from the slim original one to the thicker and bulkier version.

Ok, apart from the part that its humongous, the PDA is great. It runs on WindowsMobile6 and has better functions than its predecessor.

The down-sides:
Bad camera (only 1.3 mpixels)
No scroll wheel
Its bulky
The rotating LCD has a huge potential of becoming loose

The up-sides:
Cool rotating LCD
Huge, huge screen
Qwerty keyboard is just amazingly comfy to type on
