possible device switch, looking for advice
- Greetings!
I am an Alltel indirect rep, and I currently have a PPC6800. I'm seriously considering a switch to our 8830 due to the inconsistency of the OS. I have a couple questions for those who've used the device more than me.
1) Regarding the web browser: I've read that the default browser just sucks... Is there a way to mimic IE on it, or do I have to download opera mini? As adolescent as this may sound, I'd still like to view myspace.
2) regarding unlocked GPS:
will the default bbmaps provide turn-by-turn directions, or will google maps?
3) regarding MS Office doc's:
I understand the device will view attachments (excel,pdf,etc), but I will need to save to device/re-open Excel files and possibly powerpoint. Is there something better than eoffice?
Any help in this matter is appreciated. Thanks in advance!01-12-08 11:04 PMLike 0 - thanks!
I don't need to edit any MS Doc's on the device (it's a PITA). Does Telenav do a decent job? I'm looking to kill 2 birds with 1 stone and avoid buying another portable nav unit.
So the default browser will emulate IE... awesome. I have read that myspace.com (NON-mobile) isn't exactly consistent in the BB browser. Is this a device issue or typical user error?
Sorry for all the questions; I love my PPC6800 as it is an extremely powerful device, but the damned lockups, burned pixels, and a keyboard to big to type with one hand are starting to annoy me.
Thanks again!
