Worthless handset. Never ever buy this one. My handset has been replaced three times in 3 days but all 3 are defective. Mobile hangs when out going call is made. Echo sound is there in incoming calls. Can’t synchronize with outlook. error is reported to which no solution is provided. Total waste of 18000/- bucks.
I would sugges to all RIM lovers that wait for the technology to get settled and then buy. Let all bugs be discovered and repaired. i am in dire strait.
the battery does not last more than 6 hours. rest i guess P3000 is a good phone. except the batter life . i like the phone. it cost 16000
i want to know the prices of HTC P3000 and HTC S720 and where will i get it in mumbai
and i want to know one more feature of the handset is that at a time how many sms can we send or how many groups can be created in the handset
please reply as soon as possible
The cost of HTC p3000 is 16.5k and that of s270 is around 19k. I got the p3k and feeling good. I was disappointed 🙁 since it does not have a grp sms feature. So i ended up downloading a utility from the net that helps me do so.. am back smiling 🙂
Hey Kris thanx for the information u gave to me so there is no group sms feature in it but by downloading autility from net does it helps in sending sms while u r on move and no need of internet is it possible
and onw more thing from where did u got the mobile can u tell me as i tried in various places in mumbai but its not available there and the place from where u took the mobile is S720 available there
I have been using P3000 for a month now, bought it from bangalore, i live in delhi. The phone is good but have some problems, The networking is really touch to do, the windows got hanged many times need to reboot the phone. The edge technology not available so you can only have data or voice at a given time. The camera will only work in good day light, no flash option.. the quality in day is good. The windows option of copy paste in messages is good. the POP mail access is good i can access my gmail and hotmails directly on phones. and read them. Dialing phone you need to have touch screen stick to seach contact so forget single hand handling of phone.
will tally 7.2 or any other version of tally works in htc p3000 or not ?. will jar or sis (symbian) files work in htc p3000 or not? is there any mp3 players ? is there any call recording software in it ? please reply soon.
Please inform whether p3000 can work with a tata indicom cdma connection which i have been using presently.

Hi everyone (keen on HTC P3000)

-after sales Is there anythg for this company, simple reply take the set to mumbai / hyderabad means spend extra to talk to srvice guy, spend to send it across, spend on extra set for the interim
-if still keen pse contact me to releive me of this misery
best wishes
