I see Vodafone have lumped a load of bloatware in with their Android update on the Desire. Hmmm, I'm with them at the moment and was looking to upgrade to the Desire next month, but this may alter my plans.

If you can upgrade via carphone warehouse etc you can get a unbranded version. Or if you dont mind voiding your warranty it is easy enough to root the phone then upgrade the rom manually.

Any one got experience of the nokia e72? Just got them at work and if we set mail for exchange to always update it stops working all together. Best we can get is every 15 minutes

Why do you need to check mail more often?

Might be very popular.

I have discovered something worse than owning an iPhone. T'other half owning an iPhone. Large frustrating parts of my day are now spent thus;

pmh's phone rings. It displays Ms. pmh.

pmh-"Hello"
Ms. pmh-"Hello"
pmh-"Hi, how are you I'm ju"
Butting in.
Ms. pmh "Hello, are you there?"
pmh- "Yes I can hear you, I'm ju"
Butting in.
Ms. pmh- "Hello, hello, can you hear me?"
pmh- "Oh, ffs"
pmh- Puts phone down.

Doesn't the server have to be configured for push email? If you were polling my email server constantly you'd find your account locked PDQ, there is no need to pool for new mail (automatically) more that every 15mins.

it uses activ sync built into the phone to poll the server.

Only ten of us using it so it isn't stressing the server.

It's a common issue by the looks of google

Exchange ActiveSync doesn't use polling. The server notifies the client when new email is available. This puts less load on the server than polling and is why it's called 'push' email ('cos the server 'pushes' the email to the client).

i know. But the phones need to keep the conection open to do that and as soon as the connection drops it never syncs again. The exchange is 2003 if that helps
