Compare the TyTN and the Wizard - (performance)

---

What would the major differances be between the TyTN ie Qtek 9600 model phone in the performance area as opposed to the Wizard model phones ie.. cingular 8125/T-Mobile MDA phones? Does the processor speed of the two model greatly affect the running of the phone or is it reduced due to the fact that they really arn't apples to apples on the processor as one is a samsung processor and the other the omap.

Also am considering the HP hw6945 model as well. If any one has any insight on that.

Thanks for any insight.

well, I own both of them (moving from the wizard to the tytn). The tytn seems snappier in general, but I don't run any CPU-intensive program so it's hard to say exactly how much faster it is. Maybe some of the other forum members have a more informed opinion.

Moved to TyTN from k-jam (wizard) and I'm convinced it's much snappier and generally more stable -- I rely on my phone connection for internet access and email and have found the TyTN up and downloads msg. faster than my k-jam and I can surf the web comfortably with it at EDGE speeds (Cingular USA hasn't delivered 3G in my area yet). As far as I'm concerned this has been a really good move and I might end up keeping my TyTN for a longtime (as a gadget geek I generally get caught up in the next technology moves so I buy and sell pdas pretty often).

From a display response perspective, my TyTN feels about as fast as my 8125 which I overclocked to 240mhz. Internet browsing on Cingular's Edge network is much faster though. Here's a quote from eeter which may explain this:

EDGE on the TyTN is supposed to be faster than the 8125. It has a new feature called Extended TBF Release which improves the overall throuput

Thanks Sleuth - that's interesting and explains a lot. I also use a Slingbox and have found my TyTN works pretty good even though I don't yet have 3G speed on the local Cingular net. Push email is also faster.
