Hello all. After a lot of deliberation and web searching, I have decided to replace the crappy K750i I have with an O2 XDA mini s.
I have now spent the majority of today scouring the net looking for advice on what software to download, what rom to have, types of mini sd card to use, and basically, my brain is about to explode. I am a little confused so once again, I have come to these great forums looking for answers.
Right, I have the following questions that I hope some of you lovely people can answer.
Ok, should I check out the rom and upgrade/downgrade it to one that seems to be the best at the moment?
Memory cards - I just bought a 1gig from Carphone Warehouse for £40 but will be taking it back as I can get the 2 gig for the same price at Amazon. Any ideas what the difference is between the normal card and the "Ultra" ?
Cases - I have seen a case from Proporta called the Proporta Alu-Leather case which looks as though you can keep the XDA in it whilst using the keyboard. The only ones I have seen in the shops dont allow you to do this. Anyone got one of these and can comment?
Software - What cool/ essential/ cant live without softare apps should I put on it?
Sat Nav - I would ideally like to use this as a Sat Nav device, but dont want to spend a fortune. Any recommendations on software / gps receiver ?
Overclocking - Is it worth doing?
Phew.... I do have a lot more questions but I am getting looks from the other half now so I think I should get off the computer and get a life
Answers to any of the above would be greatly appreciated. As I said I have been looking all day so have some ideas, but as this is a forum visited by experts on this sort of stuff, I thought I would get try and get some expert advice before I bugger up my new toy.
