Samsung SCH-i730
Possible problem with i730 and PPC 2005 (Magneto)
I was originally hot after the 6600 when it first came out. The lack of a camera in the initial offering was a deal buster for me, but shortly thereafter Verizon made the camera version available and it looked like life was good.
Then I heard about the i730. Faster processor, possible MP camera, WiFi, which I don't currently need, but could be useful in the future, hopefully a better battery life, etc. Life was looking even gooder. But then I noticed that the i730 only has a 64M RAM, vrs. 128M on the 6600. Probably not a problem until I read a detailed Beta review on Windows Mobile 5.0, aka Pocket PC 2005 or Magneto, slated to come out Jun 05.

Wow, What timing! Gates announced today the launching of Windows Mobile 5.0. The websites FAQ says:
" Windows Mobile-based Pocket PCs are provided with at least 32 MB of RAM, enabling them to run several programs at once."
Now I'll have to wait to see if Verizon gives us the freedom to choose camera/no camera or force us into one or the other, and it a DUNN hack happens.
