I am looking at phones on EBay, and am sorta torn between the Samsung
i500 and i330.

The i330 has a larger display area, which when coupled with the few
apps that take advantage makes for a bit more use-ability as a
"handheld pc" (thinking here of VNC and the WebBrowser for i330 whose
name escapes me)

On the other hand, the i500 has the clamshell design that I prefer,
meaning I can stuff it in my pocket without worrying about nuking the
screen, and can answer & dial quickly.

Does the i500 perform faster than the i330? Is the screen useable
(looks kinda dinky)? I'm tilting toward needing a "Phone that's a PDA"
now a bit more than a "PDA that's a Phone".

Thanks for any input.

I think the i500 is a much better phone with some great PDA
features....other phones tend to be better all around PDAs, but are bulky,
and maybe less desireable phones.

I have an i500 which I use mainly as a phone and I love it. Couldn't ask
for a better deal and people everywhere are always asking me about it.
