Dear everyone on the list I am going to purchase a new mobile phone: having not purchased a new mobile phone for some 6 years I am shocked in both number of choices on the market and over-wheelming number of features to choose from. I guess probably people on the list know better which in-expensive durable model that can cope well with SuSE software, e.g. Evolution (for contact persons and alarm is okay). Internet: It's better if the mobile phone can offer Internet connectivity, to allow me read / send email on the mobile phone using IMAP. No need to run a browser on it. Also it's better if the phone can provide my notebook wireless Internet connection through infrared or bluetooth or whatever Linux supports. No fancy function like camera and radio needed. If mp3 is supported then better also support OGG. Multimedia: No complex feature like play one of 1000 games and run several kinds of virtual machine. No need wide built-in full-color screen for watching movie and reading book. Mac OS: It would be better if it's also supported by Mac OS X 10.2 which is my second OS, but that I think for that I'll go to consult Mac OS user group. LDAP: it's a dream if there is a model supports LDAP because all my contacts are stored in centralized LDAP contact directory in our company, but when I ask LDAP most mobile phone retailer guy don't know what I am talking about. I'll start a google research later see if there is such a product. Durability: The last mobile phone I used 6 years until it's lost (NOT BROKEN). I know many manufacturer try to design IT goods to last exactly as long as warranty period with excuse that nobody will use it for more than 3 years etc. I am nobody and I am going to use it for some longer time. It seems in China now people change mobile phone as frequent as they take bath so a lot of Chinese products are designed feature-rich, good-looking, very cheap and only last a month or two. Thanks and sorry for being OT. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
