Hi guys
I was going to buy a palm z22, but I think It will be better to get an smartphone, so I don't have to carry lot of cases in the belt.

I've seen some, but I've taken these 2 as the "best" options for my wallet (I'm from Argentina).

1º choice:
Motorola mpx220
http://www.mobile-review.com/review...x220-2-en.shtml

2º choice:
Audiovox SMT5600
http://www.phoneyworld.com/handsets...diovox_smt_5600

Based on personal experiences, Which one would you recommend me ?

Could you propose another choice ? ( In the same price range )

Maybe a GSM Pocket PC ?

Thanks a lot in advance. Hope your help...

If you are wanting a MPx 220...mine will be for sale soon. Check it out in my signature. I would go with the MPx 220 but only if it suits your needs.

I am ready to change from my Mpx220 as well....what are you going to get Omega? I'm looking really hard at an Imate SP5...don't need the SP5m version.

Also, is there any diff between the Imate SP5 and the equivalent Qtek...looks like the same thing to me but I don't know if there is a different build quality? Aren't both actually made by HTC.

So..
Do you think that mpx220 is better than the AudioVox right ?

I'm from Argentina, and I only have paypal... so I think that buying an used one will be little difficult ...

Oh well I am only selling mine in the US so.......

I am getting a HTC 8125....no more smartphones for me.

why ? bad experiences ?

No......not at all

PPC is what I need. Smartphone OS doesn't cut it for me anymore.

Posted by: quiquedcode

do you know a PPC which is in the price range of mpx220 ?
I meant: a cheap one...

Where could I look somes ?

Thanks for helping...

They always stray from the smartphones....they always come back!

I'm more of a candybar phone guy so the Audiovox gets my vote.

Hi encece
I see in your signature that you've used MPx200, then Audiovox SMT5600...
Which things make you assure that SMT56000 is better than MPx ?

Posted by: encece

Yes, that was the 200 not the 220. But I dont think the 5600 is better than the 220...it's just my preference. Especially due to the early problems of the 220 when released.

Seems to my that the majority here on Howard forums are 220 users. But on other places like Modaco.com, most are SMT-5600 users and C500 users (same phone)

Oh well...
The price difference here is "interesting" ...

Audiovox is $AR 750 ( some u$s 248 )
MPx220 is $AR 1200 ( some u$s 396 )

So well... If I get a job, I will go with MPx220, else Audiovox LOL

I love my MPX 220 - I would totally recommend it!!!!
