The wall of PDA project is sitting on the back burner. This past summer I finally figured out how I am going to mount them and bought the supplies. I still need to get some paint and a free weekend to actually follow through.

I use XM exclusively in my car right now and love being able to see the artist and title for whatever is playing. I think RDS would be a great feature to have. Now I just wonder if any radio stations in my area use it... </p> This phone is one of the cooler one’s I’ve seen.

My colleague from Hong Kong has been encouraging me to buy the new Sony Ericsson w810i as I am looking for a quality quadband phone. But I’ve been turned off by the price.

He just introduced me to your site. If it’s not meant to be, could you recommend a quadband phone with good reception. I don’t need a lot of add-ons.

Thank you

Daniel
