stoney Posted January 1, 2008 at 12:54 AM Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 at 12:54 AM I am thinking of buying Treo 680 here in Canada before returning to China. Will I be able to sent text messages on this phone using Chinese Characters? Any other advice about using this phone/pda in China would be appreciated.

ipsi() Posted January 1, 2008 at 04:01 AM Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 at 04:01 AM Check the Wiki article here. It's worth noting that not all carriers support it. My one does, down here in New Zealand. But I understand that the ones in the US don't. So you may not be able to when you get back to Canada. Not sure though.

cdn_in_bj Posted January 1, 2008 at 05:22 AM Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 at 05:22 AM It should work fine, but won't you get a better deal buying this phone in China? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onebir Posted January 1, 2008 at 09:13 AM Report Share Posted January 1, 2008 at 09:13 AM Treo 680s can do sms with Chinese Chars, but I'm not sure one bought in Canada will have the software for this. They were going for around RMB2500 in Kunming last time I checked. I bought one here & had no major problems with it - but I haven't tried to set it up to use email/web browsing etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
