Papyrus vs Aqua Calendar: What does All About Symbian have to say?

Comparing applications that have exactly the same goal (i.e. make a better Calendar) is always going to be tricky, and although each category was very close, there has to be a declared winner. And with a 2-1 score, the All about Symbian best Calendar replacement goes to Aqua Calendar from Pocket Torch by a very small margin.Source: All About Symbian
You know I hope Nokia (NYSE: NOK) pulls a Google (NSDQ: GOOG) or Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) and actually buys one of these developers out. The built in PIM on Series 60 devices is satisfactory but it could be so much better. Nothing can touch Palm (NSDQ: PALM)’s built in PIM suite, and sometimes I wish I would’ve gotten a Treo instead. Then reality comes back and I realize my phone never crashed, I have built in WiFi, support for WCDMA when T-Mobile (NYSE: DT) launches it in 07, and I have a larger keyboard that supports my freakishly large hands.
FYI — no current phone has support for T-Mobile’s WCDMA offerings coming down the pipeline. Euro phones use 1900 as an uplink and 2100 as a downlink. T-Mobile doesn’t have spectrum to implement the 1900 uplink, so they will most likely end up doing the uplink on the 1700 band. This means that _no_current_phone_ will support T-Mob USA’s WCDMA.
Otherwise, I completely agree
-olly
Thanks for breaking the bad news olly, better now then later I suppose hehe
The actual main issue with T-Mobile and US 3G is the 2100 band. In the US, the 2100 band is exclusively used by the government. T-Mo is going to run on a variation of the 2100 band so it doesn’t interfere with the government.
BTW – I agree…I would never trade my E61 for a Treo. I do miss some of the PIM functionality but not enough to deal everything else that was going on.
Hmmm thanks for all this information Foad, do you know when t-mobile will launch 2100 mhz support in the usa?
