> In reply to Mohsen @ 2008-11-11 11:18 from nCbyA1800 supports dual card slot, one of which is designed for CDMA cards, which one probably can't even get in US (or Hong Kong or many other CDMA supported places around the world).
I don't have A1800, though I doubt the CDMA slot actually supports another GSM SIM.
Anyway, even if the extra slot supports GSM card, is it worth another US$200? (the premium of A1800 over A1600)
Sorry, not for me.

> In reply to robert @ 2008-11-04 01:55 from Rxn2For differences between GSM & CDMA, especially the technical aspects, suggest you go to Wikipedia.
Generally speaking, CDMA is a totally different network away from GSM.
Most countries around the world now support GSM networks, EXCLUDING Japan and Korea. Most countries run on the GSM900/1800 frequency, with execptions in many countries in the American region, which runs on GSM 850/1900 frequency.
My understanding is the following countries have CDMA networks.
US/Canada
Japan
Korea
Hong Kong (for romaing only)
Taiwan (not sure folded up or not)
So if your country (or the country you often travel to) does not have any CDMA network, there is little to no reason why you should pay US$200 more over an A1600 for an A1800.

The A1600 will do everything that the A1800 will do (excluding CDMA) plus a few more features that the A1800 won't do.
Buy the A1600 unless you need CDMA in your phone!

> In reply to TEPEM @ 2008-10-14 11:54 from Mf3nActually I don't consider A1800 is the successor of A1200, especially the "Opening Price Point"...
A1800, which also supports CDMA, is being sold for about USD$800 (Yike!) in PRC.
Meanwhile, A1600, which adds a better cam, GPS, AGPS, more external memory, is being sold for USD$395 in Hong Kong, which is closely to A1200, which was sold for about USD$421 when A1200 was first launched.
I still have my A1000 in my "collection", which actually still works. (the only problem is the old type of charger plug, which isn't very stable) I feel proud of my A1000, because it took the almighty brand almost 4 years to come out with its own 3G touchscreen device.

> In reply to 100 Moto @ 2008-10-05 00:28 from P%G3hi, possibly this will answer some of your questions:
Motorola M1000 (Foma) exclusively present in Japan for DoCoMo GSM provider and it was a successor of Motorola A1000 - botth A1000 and M1000 run Symbian OS - not linux - these two models are comparably old announced 4 years back or so. The major difference between these two is that M1000 incorporates WiFi while A1000 has no wireless.
Motorola A1800 is the successor of Motorola A1200 Ming (first announced and mostly present in mainland China) - both run heavily customized linux platform (EZX).
Hope that helps.

1)A1200 released in Japan? Either you got the wrong model number (I heard M1000 was the one that released in Japan, being the successor of A1000 that runs on 3G), or wrong place (A1200 sold like hot cakes in mainland China, as Japan does "not" run on any GSM frequency except WCDMA GSM2100.
2)Moto is still trying to make a 3G phone with its favorite Linux platform.
3)Moto still focuses on GSM markets which "do not" run on the 3G frequency being used in Europe...being mainland China and US. Both countries contribute lots of sales for Moto in terms of global business.
Don't get me wrong, I make my mom to use 3G for v-call, though my in-laws have absolutely no idea about 3G...or will they switch to 3G anytime soon.

Wow this looks like a superb follow up to the A1000, hopefully they launch this on '3' (unlike the A1200 which was only available in Japan :( ) although looking at the specs as it has no to 3G that is a severe limitation. Surely that is a mistake in the specs as everyone is developing 3G phones now, 2G finished at least 2 years ago (I actually was one of the first in the UK to convert to 3G with an A920)
