well i'll repeat here what i said in the other thread just now..
"ah, good choice on the J728.. also on sig3... lol .. but beware the j728 is still better in some important respects than the sig3!
(some hpc2000 app compatibility, battery life, and rdp over gprs is of course faster with the J728, lol
)"
takwu: wow, cool detailed desc
somehow i disagree with the point about sturdyness.
and about the screen quality too, of course. i think it's quite good, but that's me.
of course the intermec is better.
i agree about the battery. i have two batteries, one brand new and both last 2-3 hrs with wifi. more like 2 than 3.
cenet is indeed more stable, doesnt your smartbook
(SA1110
) feel the same way?
you still need to hack ppc wlan drivers but only the OS version needs to be changed
spreadsheet: that one is japanese
and it seems to be the same as spreadce
overall conclusion for me? when my j728 was waiting for a little repair
(takwu, you remember that one
), i used only sig3. then i again tried j728 and i didn't feel it would be a step backwards or whatever. except maybe IE4, that's slower and less stable - same is true of the whole OS but that wasn't bad to me at all because the sig3 suffers from my bt drivers anyway.. as for IE4 there's netfront...
but i don't do much video, so...
so. i cannot choose which is better for me
amazing isn't it.

Thanks for the reply-I will make some enquiries with my niece-actually her husband-who owns several English language schools in Japan-about locating several Sig 3's and their availability, cost etc. and advise. I'm doing some work for him in Canada so I'm sure he would be happy to help me out.
Thanks again.

P.S. Sorry but I screwed up when I started this as a new thread as you suggested-I didn't realize I was in "Off Topic"-should have put it in CE Net or HPC 2000? I'm surprised that you found it at all.
oh i would be really interested in the results of your enquiries. must have a spare sig3 cheap!!! lol
(and a j728 but strictly ABB
same as the j728 i already have
)
i can't move the thread, but you can ask an admin in a PM
(C:Amie
). it could be in general discussion, but that's IMO.
