new phone similar to XDA released, check it out

I found a phone similar to XDA with Quad band features and GPS:

Nice to see some competition. The name implies the phone is somewhat dedicated to people in Middle-East?
Parkkuman

Looks pretty nifty..! Specially with the built in GPS.. !

Looks bloody ugly! :shock:

And even runs PocketPC 2000 as you can see on the nice picture :lol: - that picture is faked and the device is just a plan...

Well its not fake i can assure you, but its not in production yet and i dont think it will be anytime soon!
I saw the prototype and i can assure you its out of the question to have such a device in the market if they didnt modify it big time. Too bulky at first sight...
I think we wont see this device anytime soon in the market thats for sure...

It is not a bomb detonator, but since it comes from the Middle East, it is a weapon of mass destruction, so beware.
What a mentality??

Ugly or what?

I am waiting for my xperia too. I ordered it one week ago, and hopefully it will be here tomorrow. If not I expect it by the end of the week. If it doesn't arrive by the end of the week I will go crazy.
The waiting is killing me!!

Where? I'm in Pakistan, and there is no hope of it arriving here anytime soon, so i'm getting i'm getting it from England...

Man!! I thought some passing Elephant sat on your X1 or something Youtube-worthy....

Good to hear more people will get this great phone, maybe we get more useful panels by xda users =)

In the same terrible situation as folks without a confirmed date. sony in my country (Singapore) just did a pre-order for SEX1. But I am waiting for operators to pick it up and offer it with contract so that it will cost lesser. Anyway, i am not keen on what the pre-order is giving.

I finally got my HAD TO HAVE IT NOW Xperia - Probably going to sell it .. Haven't even put it in my purse or taken it out of the house. My eyes are older than I am and with the super great resolution everything is too small for me to read .. gotta whip out my magnifying glasses to use it ..
JEEZ ...

Where did you guys order yours from and how much did you pay for it? (include shipping and tax) I'm looking to get one but I dont know where is a reliable place to buy it. Anyone have experience with Clove?

Most comprehensive list about how to save battery. These are probably the best tips. You don't need to use all, but 4 is probably the biggest saver out of all of them.

I agree =\
just buy the map packs later when you dont get xp in the current level your on
i bought all the map packs and currently level 27, i am leeching off of level 50's (if they dont boot me) in the last area so i can level faster heheh

Have to say, I started playing this last night and I am already up to level 10.....an amazing little game.
It is a little annoying that you will have to keep paying for this game the longer you play, but I can probably get over that.
With that being said, this thing murders my battery lol....guess that is to be expected.

YOU WONT BELIEVE THIS ! (please read)

OK....so you guys wont believe this.....
I live in NewYork....(flushing) to be precise...which is an area dominant by chinese people....
so I took the subway.....and it was jam packed.....
but thats not it.....
about like a metre away from me I saw a chinese dude with a huge ass phone in his hand....i was kinda curious to know what phone it was untill he flipped it over to do something and I saw....the HD2 buttons.....and thot.....no big deal...i have a HD2 too.....
BUT TO MY SURPRISE !!
I SAW WP7 running on his phone.......he had the Zune music player on it....
NOW i know a lot of you guys will be like....ohhh it might have been a theme or an add on !!
but ! NO
he pressed the start button and it had the same transition.....he even pressed the VOlume UP button and I saw the Notification feature on top of the screen in WP7.....
I so wanted to talk to him about it...but the train was packed and the dude left at the next stop....
now I want to know what you guys think about this ???

i think its bs

This thread is pretty useless without pictures or even the standard blurry/shakey video. It's just going to start more rumours and threads like I know a friend who knows a guy who saw a guy eating lunch who apparently works for HTC and he and a prototype HD2 running WP7.

I saw the Loch Ness monster the other night. He asked me for tree fiddy.

if you ever are in a position like I was today...you would come to know...how tough it is to take your camera out and snap a pic or a video with like 50 people around u in a jam packed subway car !! come to NewYOrk once and I will make u experience this !!

Seems like every chinese person around the globe is running WP7 perfectly on their HD2....except the fine folks here at XDA.
