Sprint's PPC-6800 Prototype

[luv2chill]

Here is a spec sheet on the MSM7500. Looks nice as it has a 400MHz core for PDA functions and a dedicated 133MHz core for phone functions.

Also has a built-in ATI graphics accelerator (who knows how powerful it is).

173.63MB of storage memory - not enough.
48.54MB of Program memory - definatly not enough.

Not enough? I think you are misunderstanding the poster here - I'm pretty sure the poster means that these numbers are for available memory (after bootup), not total memory. Compare this to the roughly 30MB of available storage memory that you get on a stock 6700 from a carrier right now (after they apply all their junk), and you see that 174 MB of available storage memory is an enormous and very significant improvement.

Here are the unofficial specs I have seen most often for the total memory we can expect to see on the Titan (this was reported awhile back on Engadget, specifically for the Verizon XV6800):

256MB storage memory
96 MB program memory

In terms of total memory, this is double the storage memory and 1.5 times the program memory of our 6700's - sounds excellent to me. In particular, 256MB of storage memory on the Titan is a best-in-class spec for any current or near-term WM device right now that I have heard of. See the uber HTC Advantage and the vaunted upcoming i-Mate Ultimate line - all have 256MB.

based on this the +'s are keyboard opening the opposite direction and a collapsable stylus? uhhhhh....

I agree that there are a lot more things on my wish list that I don't see here (VGA screen and GPS come to mind). But I don't think the Titan is getting enough credit for the improvements it does have. To me, the biggest I have seen are the doubling of storage memory, upgradeability of the high-speed data from EVDO Rev 0 to Rev A, and the reportedly much slimmer form factor (given how chunky our 6700's are, this is really good news to me). As for EVDO Rev A, I have seen some promising speed test reports from people who have been able to try it using PC cards where it has been rolled out (I recall someone wrote that he found it to be indistinguishable from his DSL speed).

Based on luv2chill's very interesting info above, it also might be quicker and able to handle more simultaneous work due to the multi-core processor and built-in graphics accelerator splitting up the workload. The other notable items I have seen for the Titan are faster WiFi (g) and Bluetooth (v2 w/EDR). So we may find that "faster in every way" turns out to be a common theme for this device...

According to the screenshots in the FTP, there is 256MB of storage memory, of which 82.37MB is used by the OS and there is 64MB of RAM - of which 15.46MB is currently allocated to the OS.

I don't care what everyone else thinks, this is sexy!

If I don't switch to an N95, I'm getting this when it's released for sure.

Besides more, but not enough memory, being added...I am really digging this feature!

Have you played with the scroll wheel? How does it function? And does it perform well?

lattisimo,

Thanks for sharing this info! Could you please post the .tsk file for the default theme? I'd love to modify and use it on my 6700. You might have to zip it in order to attach to a msg.

TIA,
Todd/Indy

i have not had too much time to play with that feature much but it very convenient on the today screen and in the menus. the push click of it is very soft... feels nothing like the moto q or blackberry. i am hoping to play with it today when i get to work in a few hours. i want to test the wheel in PIE to see if it scrolls web pages or just scrolls links.

did you notice in the screen captures that PIE identifies as IE 6.0?

the OK button below the scroll wheel also activates the start menu when on the today screen.

i also want to add that the direction pad on the front is a 9way!

the buttons on the front may take some getting used to... i tend to hit multiple buttons when trying to use the softkeys and window/ok keys. the fact that the layout is different of my 6700 is part of my problem too.

Lattisimo, any way you can put the tsk file for the Yellow Sprint theme?

I have been looking for this theme but only the Moto Q has it.. and I want it for my PPC....

Thanks in advance..

i have a few progs on my thumbdrive that are going with me to work so i can get what you are wanting. i will dump the windows directory (which will have the .tks file) and hopefully get a successful rom dump today. if i have not posted by 12:00am cst then it won't be till at least sunday before i will have another try.

[luv2chill]

Told ya people would want that fugly yellow tsk

Got a couple of other possibilities for the ROM dump. Come into the chatroom if you get any time today. Thanks!
