Thanks, helix. I got a different impression from reading the forums, but I'll take your word for it on those corrections. (By the way, $80 is still completely insane. )
I'm interested in seeing how the new Samsung compares to your Audiovox, which has been the only real game in town. There have been substantial rumors that they may NOT cripple away the Samsung's built in 802.11.

| Well I can tell you now that the Samsung i730 is closer in size to a Treo, with an external antenna. The screen is smaller, though both are 320x240. The Samsung will have a consumer grade IR transmitter. It has 64MB of RAM and 128MB ROM, where with the 6600 the reverse is true. Supposedly there will be an upgrade path to WM2005 but given Samsung's history with the i700 we'll have to wait and see. The i730 will have WiFi and EVDO. The nice thing about the 6600 is it is an HTC and much of the support available by Blue Angel owners applies to us Harrier owners as well. |
