> Satio Vs iphone
Bookmark topic
Personaly i'd take the Satio if it was stable as my 5800xm is. Ive had time to play on both my parents iPhone3G and iPhone3GS to confirm that i just couldn't live with an iPhone,its better as a 2nd phone to my 5800 or to a Satio IMO. Multitasking is something i use daily, a smartphone without multitasking and proper taskmanager to me is useless realy,might as well have a Samsung e250. I generaly love Symbian S60 for the fact that i realy dont need a PC even for firmware updates,i dont need to worry about backing up ANYTHING when doing an update thanx to UDP, when hacking and modding an S60 you dont need a PC etc. . .i just love the freedom,even the customization is superior in s60,being able to change the Menus and Menu effects etc... The camera is another reason why id take the Satio. Basicaly if you know your way around S60 and enjoy its freedom,go for Satio.

@GUCCI - genuine question - what do you regularly multitask, and why? I had multitasking phones for 4-5 years before the iPhone, but 14 months into the iPhone - and especially since the introduction of push notifications - I really don't miss it. At the end of the day, the iPhone does multitask all the important stuff (phone/email/music etc).

I run MXit which is a popular IM client down here, Music Player, Opera Mobile or Mini, Gravity (twitter and facebook client) as well as VideoHUB sometimes when i download a YouTube vid that i want.
I do get what you mean though, but the iPhones way of multitasking realy doesnt do it for me. Also Bluetooth file transfer is a big one, sharing files between my laptop, and phones is important, whilest i use the phone,so im not just limited to USB.

Fair enough, the iPhone can't keep up with that entirely, but it does get close - for example, with IM+ (which supports Push notifications) I can be logged in and receiving messages from most instant messaging networks, including Twitter and Facebook, while I browse in Safari and listen to ipod music at the same time. If I choose to respond to a message, IM+ loads quickly, the music keeps playing, and Safari falls into the background - but as a core app it doesn't close completely so I don't lose my page or download progress.
It's not full multitasking, but it's nowhere near as limiting as some like to make out.

maybe i was a bit harsh with the Samsung e250 comment as the iPhone does multitask to a certain degree. The iPhone is a great smartphone, i think we owe a lot of the improvements that S60v5 is undergoing to it but for me personaly its just not what im looking for. If the PW does like the geekishness of S60 they must go for it.
