Complimentary phone to an iPAQ

blokeupnorth · #1 (**permalink**) 05-03-2004, 07:17 PM

Has anyone tried and tested a bluetooth phone or can seriously recommend one that would allow an iPAQ, in particular a 5550 to send and receive faxes aswell as GPRS (email etc), I know the nokia 6310 does it all but are there any others out there?

Recomendations of fax software wouldnt go amiss either!

Cheers

I've not tried faxing, but can recommend the Sony Ericsson T610 (inc. bluetooth) for GPRS data - Vodafone online 100 tariff is good at £15 (inc. £6 worth of GPRS / WAP / MMS or TXT). Handset cost about £50, but available online direct from Voda only (www.vodafone.co.uk).

Oh and it includes 100 anytime / any network voice mins too.

If I can figure out how / if I can send faxes on it, I'll repost.

I use the T610 on O2, i have not tried faxing either but the phone is not bad, does what i need.

It would seem faxing is a supported data function of the phone, not the ipaq. There's many good phones on the market that do everything else but not fax and unfortunately its rarely printed as a feature of the phone on the packaing or on sites. The search goes on...
