If HTC is listening;SHIFT could have been great, here's what's missing
Aug 25 2007, 8:05 AM EDT 1. Let the PocketPC side of the SHIFT be a fully functional GPS PHONE (like the P3600 running WM6 2. External USB too, But the device needs a hard-wired built-in USB to VISTA w/PocketPC App called "SOTI PocketPC Controller" 7 "WM6's Internet Sharing" to Tether to the VISTA side to the POCKET PC PHONE side so that the PocketPC can be utilized while VISTA is RUNNING using the PocketPC Side as a TETHERD PHONE ( My VOICE PLAN has unlimited DATA, shame I cant use it on the SHIFT I would have to TETHER yet another 2nd POCKETPC, the P3600 with WM6 and TOMTOM GPS to the SHIFT to use my VOICE PLAN with UMLIMITED DATA on the SHIFT ) HINT, my VOICE PLAN SIM CARD WILL NOT WORK ON A DATA SIM SOCKET as evidenced with the AIRCARD 875, totally useless with the UMLIMITED DATA VOICE PLAN, only works with DATA PLAN... ( yes it can be made to work but data use is charged by the bit... 3. REMOVE the KEYBOARD from the SHIFT's design ( You can provide a "Freedom BLUETOOTH or USB keyboard" and "Bluetooth or USB Mouse" if you want that can go in the same LEATHER BAG as the SHIFT for those that want to prop up their SHIFT at the STARBUCKS, you have to have somewhere to type before you can type ) 4. Use the SPACE formerly dedicated to the KEYBOARD for BATTERY BULK to run a FASTER 64-Bit INTEL PROCESSOR 5. Did I mention a FASTER 64-Bit INTEL PROCESSOR? "Core 2 Duo, T7600 Mobile Processor" for VISTA, Separate VIDEO MEMORY from WORKING MEMORY ( i.e. design in a Mobile 512MB Video Card like LAPTOPs use ) 6. Provide two User Accessible SIMM SOCKETS for up to 4GB (2x2GB) memory ( When I DOCK the SHIFT, I don't want to give up PRODUCTIVITY ) 7. Put GPS and TOMTOM on the POCKETPC PHONE SIDE like is currently working on the P3600 and provide a CAR-MOUNT while between destinations, with an easy way to answer the phone (Caller ID on the screen when getting a call ) 17 out of 21 found this valuable. Do you? |

Jan 20 2008, 7:04 AM EST and you want it to make coffee.. to cost 1$ .. and to be a transformer ??? what's wrong with this kid... it's totally important to have the keyboard .. iPhone and HTC Touch are lacking a keyboard and it's completely horrible ... having a bluetooth or usb keyboard is bad.. because the shift is small enough to put in a pocket... do you really think that you will carry a keyboard everywhere ??? you are totally out of the idea of the Shift buy an iPhone and stop talking about the shift, you are completely wrong about what is the shift and how to use it. The shift IS NOT A PHONE, you WON'T put it to you EARS.. and you WON'T use it as you primary GPS/PHONE/COMPUTER ... It doesn't need a FASTER CPU.. because it really works well with the 800 MHz CPU.... and you don't even know what are the 64-Bit core 2 duo cpu ... you are just talking about names... you should just stop thinking and writing 2 out of 2 found this valuable. Do you? |
