What's a good mobile phone for demos? (no apple plz)
iPhone
That costs half the price...
symbian
iphone, definitelly
by the way, did anyone dare to add demos to the iphone appstore already? are there prods on this platform? :)
I like the fact how he says 'No apple plz' and people keep suggesting the iPhone ^^
They dont accept demos on applestore, only finals
i too have a feeling iphone is the only one. it takes other companies ages just to copy apple and get it right
i saw LGs tvad for their new much-better-than-iphone phone. was rather embarrasing to see them hyping a telephone that in the ad ran say 3-4 fps in the ui
its shameful
LG is a shit brand, so what do you expect.
LG build good laptops, though. oh wait, this is the other thread. I'm so sorry.
iphones are not that expensive. they cost about 400 € here in switzerland with a subscription for 0 CHF/month.
Personally I'm a fan of Sony Ericsson phones. At least they have great Java performance. Dunno how great demos you could do with the Java APIs though.
It's a shame the best mobile demos are indeed for Symbian :)

and by best demos I mean the ones from Matt Current
visa: I already got my hopes up and thought you meant Dekadence :((
I'd say iphone, android or palm pre are the ones worth looking at. Android seems like good software, but the hardware isn't so great. More phones are coming out though so that should change. Pre isn't out yet, and might turn out to be shit, but at least it looks like it will be good.
My HTC Diamond runs winmo/ppc demos, DOS demos via emulator, amiga, atari, gba, c64 etc etc all through emulators. And they all run nicely too. MilkyTracker is awesome on it also ;)
of course i've no clue at all, but my E71 runs symbian demos just fine. it also has great office support (usable email client, ms exchange connectivity, decent todolist stuff, etc)

It's not like it's all manufactured (and often designed/constructed) in China anyway.
What really sucks about LG is their logo:
Nokia?
nokia 5800 should be able to a bunch of stuff also .. symbian afaik .. but really i know shit about phones .. talk to puryx, he codes crap on them for a living
Yeah, but "sadly" I code JME (former J2ME) too ;)
wait for something with an omap3 in it
