Hmmm.. seeing that it's just a Windows Mobile phone I don't see why you can't just select any other Smartphone model and then use it on your i600. Say.. the Dopod C720.

Hi 2six,
(1) U mentioned that u are using newsbreak program (a rss reader). What is the difference bwt the one provided by Samsung which is also a rss reader?
(2) As i am still new to RSS, may i know if wifi can be connected to rss, or only just gprs can do the job? Cos i try using wifi and it shows that "unable to update feed. Connection lost. Check connection and try again." But when i use gprs, its fine
(3) Is RSS actually free? I am aware that i will be charged using gprs. But lets say for instance "channelsnewsasia", it states that "This service is free and for personal, non-commercial use." What does it mean.
Appreciate the help...

I'll have to test it out. Maybe the i600 processor is not fast enough to handle skype? also, when using the beta skype on i600, skype hangs most of the time. maybe skype can't fix the problem?

I'm used to newsbreak, and i think it has more features than the i600's newsreader. it is up to preferences i guess.
it can use wifi or gprs to access the news. i am using wifi to download news as gprs is costly.
rss contents is free, but if you use gprs, you'll have to pay for gprs charges.

I just tried installing skype 2.2 on i600. It installs but cannot run.
I checked skype forum and found this from a skype staff:

Hi,
Unfortunately your device is not supported by Skype for Windows Mobile 2.2 Gold Release.
We do hope to support this device in future releases.

Thanks for the piece of info...
Looks like my msn is giving me this problem. The scenario goes something like this. I logged on to my MSN using WIFI only, and everything was going smoothly. But lets say when i leave my office, i will definitely close my MSN messenger FIRST (from home quick list menu), followed by WIFI.
But minutes later, my i600 was connected to GPRS again, and mails flowed back in again ( as i will delete all my mails on the initial loggin in of msn). i have to "disconnect cellular data" to disable GPRS. But minutes after, GPRS appeared again and mails flow in again upon my 2nd time for deletion of emails. It is really getting on my nerves as my bills are chalking up for the kbs.
Is there a proper way to actually close the application? Anyone come across this problem.... Pls advise :cry:

You have to sign out from pocketMSN before you close the application.

Yap.. just figured out not too long ago,... still must thank you for the valuable info
I have also attempted to close msn application without signing out. It will ONLY work if there is no chat windows in your msn, else it will definitely connect back to GPRS.
