The wait begins...

Finally!  After 5 1/2 years with the same phone (yes 5 1/2 YEARS), I've finally found a phone with the features and price I want to replace my trusty Kyocera Palm SmartPhone.

I just got off the phone with Verizon.  My new Samsung i730 will be arriving Wednesday the 22nd.  I am so geeked!!  First thing I'm doing after I get it activated is upgrade it to Windows Mobile 5.0.  The phone comes with Pocket PC 2003 OS, but Verizon has a downloadable upgrade for Windows Mobile 5.0.  Let the flashing begin!

And one of the best parts was the cost -- free!!  Well, not exactly.  It's an early Christmas present from my wife.  Thanks sweetie!

So I've got a few days to prepare for it's arrival.  I'll need to make sure I've got the Windows Mobile 5.0 upgrade, .NET Compact Framework 2.0 installer, perhaps a little SQL CE, Pocket PC apps for GeoCaching...  So much to do, so little time...

  • Great!! You'll love the phone.
    I've had it for about four months now and I love it. I did the upgrade also after I got it and every thing went on smoothly. Sounds like you'll be putting it thru alot more than I do.
