Other uses for the Vogue

[Lost My Mind]

So, every phone in their lifetime has that day. Its the day that signifies the end. For my Vogue, that day is approaching rapidly. I'll be getting an HTC Incredible as soon as verizon stores stock it. Thats not to say I dont still have a place in my heart for the vogue. I still like this little device very much.

It just wont be able to get phone service. So i'm wondering to myself "What can I do with it now?"

Is there anything i'll be able to do with my Vogue once I switch phones that could still be worthwhile? I wont be carrying it with me everywhere, but maybe some function at home?

I'm thinking in installing Android to it but would like to try it first (microSD) if possible. I wouldn't like to get ride of it.

That would be nice, unfortunately in the U.S. the cheapest prepaid data plan I could find from searching is AT&T's $19.99/Month and it's only 100 MB, pretty useless.

Any others out there??

I have mine on Bell's fun 20 prepaid and i dual boot WM on root and Android Donut on 8g SDCard. The fun20 gets you unlimited data, and txt messages. I can talk on it but i don't cause voice is not unlimited, only use it as a data device. I use a custom wm for internet tethering, and android for everything else.
It's future abilities are way beyond its time, still it does suck that there's no internal WiFi built into these models.

Ooooooo, this thread just got interesting! Very much looking for the answer to THAT one! Cause if you could BT tether off a PC data, then you could probably turn it into a webcam that's always on when you want it to be.


I hope that's the case.

I use mine as an alarm clock and the stylus as an ear scratcher

i laughed, yeah i cannot imagine going back to a vogue after having the hero & now the evo. but i guess if i did i would use it solely for android.
