Im due my upgrade but just waiting for the new tariffs to come live in Feb.

Im split on which handset to go for however, they seem very similar on paper but wanted to know if there was a general preference for a particular one...

Or one is better than the other because... finding it a bit difficult atm. Also, do you know if you can use a slingbox with these devices ?

Thanks
Amin

Hi,

I've had my HTC Kaiser (O2 Stella) for about a month on Vodafone and at first was very impressed with it, it was my first ever WM6 mobile so i was bound to be impressed though lol. I've had some issues with phone reboots and freezes and generaly felt very annoyed with the phone. Then I found this forum and read through the section on flashing with a new ROM, so i probably invalidated my warranty by flashing it but since i did it the phone has worked flawlessly!!! Couldn't be happier.

Looking at that little bit of info on that site it looks like the specs have been uped from the O2 Orbit and are now the same as the Stella, although I have a 2gb SDCard in mine and the Orbit can accept upto 1gb?

It doesn't look as though it has a slide out keyboard like the Stella does.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

I did notice on gsmarena comparison that one was mentioned as being SDHC compaitble so it can take the 4gig micro sd cards but the other not.

And one has A2DP bluetooth support but the other has not..

decisions decisions :rolleyes::confused:
