Waiting for my DROID (Motorola Milestone)
Category Android
When going for Linux, things are a bit more messy, the look and feel is not as rounded and everything does not always work as expected. Same thing with Android - the freedom to set things up like you want them.
I have tested PIM synchronization between Android and Lotus Traveler, and it works fine with the TouchDown app. PIM synchronization was a must.
I have chosen the Motorola Milestone because it looks to me like it is the Android device that at this moment has come the longest way. It's fast, it has a physical keyboard, it runs the most current version of Android and it has a good solid, industrial feel to it.
| I just placed an
order for the Motorola
Milestone - aka Droid
outside Europe.
This is a computer that is also a mobile phone, not a Mobile that can do some web surfing. I have had the pleasure of borrowing a HTC Hero for a couple of weeks and there was no doubt that the Android-based devices are very interesting. Of course I have considered going for the iPhone 3GS, but it just does not match my profile. I want a device that I will be able to have a lot of control over. It's a bit like the Linux/Windows/Mac considerations when choosing a laptop. With Mac or Windows there is a lot of order and a set look and feel to things. But there is a price to that - you have less options when customizing the experience, you have to pay for a lot of the applications you install. |

Kan jeg skrive danske tegn
Jeg ved det i virkeligheden ikke med sikkerhed.
Jeg er ca 90% sikker på at svaret er ja og at det man skal gøre er at holde f.eks. a-tasten nede og så vil der komme en pop-up hvor man kan vælge mellem forskellige 'specialtegn' - et af dem er så et å. Dette er på hardware-tastaturet.
Jeg er ca 95% sikker på at det samme gælder software-tastaturet - altså det der kan komme frem på skærmen.
Jeg har valgt at tage risikoen. For jeg tror faktisk godt jeg kan klare mig uden.
Kommer der dansk version
Jeg ved det ikke, men jeg tror det ikke.
