Si tukang copas emang biasanya suka "membalas" siapa aja yang ketahuan user SE dengan postingan di sub-forum "handphone-merk-Amerika-yang-bahkan-nulis-merknya-pun-gw-gak-mau" dengan "menyerang" SE tanpa dasar yang jelas -- contoh paling mutakhir adalah nyebutin bahwa tidak semua hape SE ber-3G tapi yg di-list adalah handphone2 low-end, ya iya lah.... -- bahkan kalo posting di sub-forum "merk-itu" pun dia seringnya cuma maen copas tanpa ada pendahuluan maksudnya apa atau terjemahin dikit kek, maka di sini gw coba tanya ke si tukang copas: "maksud lo apa"?
Dan semacam inilah kalimat yang sering dia tulis di "sub-forum-merk-yang-tabu-gw-tulis-itu" : "kalau gak tahu jangan posting di sini". Nenek moyang lo....

Eh, dia jualan kaos Naruto tuh. 50 rebu sebiji. LOL

emang sapa seh si tukang copas itu?? koq dari awal ngomongin ni orang?...hehehe..maaf newbie..

cari aja di subforum merk-hp-yang-kayaknya-bentar-lagi-vendornya-bangkrut di sebelah. Trus loe bikin thread baru yg judulnya Tukang Copas sini loe!!! Pasti dia nongol.

Emang kenapa kalo WM 6.1 itu gak jauh beda sama WM 6.0? Ya wajar aja, bedanya juga cuma "0.1" --- bukan tarif GSM gila-gilaan tapi ya...
Microsoft juga gak maen2 dengan penomoran versi, kalo ada perubahan signifikan baru deh versinya naek jadi angka berikutnya : WM 7 yang memang lumayan jauh sama WM 6.
...

gw udah cobain WM6.1 Pro
kemarin abis upgrade rom PDA gw dari WM6.0 ke WM6.1
perubahan sih ngga banyak
tapi yg menurut gw cukup berasa kalo install aplikasi
lebih cepet .....
tampilan sms nya juga seperti kalo kita chatting
buat gw kurang enak, karena ngga ada sms report nya

ya mudah2an waktu X1 kluar udah ada WM7
jadi udah ada perubahan yg lebih signifikan seperti bro TheRealOne bilang

Lanjoooooooooooooooddddd...... *sambil bagi2 es campur buat semua biar sejuk*

btw. lebih ceped mana yak, secara umum,.. ngetik dengan satu jempol di querty thumboard (contoh di P1) dibanding dengan ngetik dengan dua jempol di querty thumboard (contoh di SEX1)?

Lebih cepat pakai qwerty
Ada yg tahu kisaran harga kalau nanti dijual dipasaran Indo?
Lihat Experia, langsung lupa iphone

@atas
kisaran plng 6-8 jt

lho pertanyaannya juga kan dua2nya querty... haahahah gak nyimak yak...
querty nya mana yg lebih cepet?? model P1 atau model SEX1?

Akhirnya selesai juga baca 20 pages di forum ini, fiuuuh..... hehehe..
Terus terang gw pertama tau kabar si SEX1 ini gara2 dapat announcement terbaru dari portal SE yg dikirim ke email gw (SE ngirim ke email gw setiap kali ada produk baru atau program baru yg mereka rilis).
First Impression : WOOOWWW !!! Menurut gw keren tampangnya
Second Impression : Gw harus cari info lebih banyak ama gadget yg satu ini, dan terdamparlah gw di forum ini,hehehe... Thanks buat bro2 yg udah ngulik2 si SEX1 ini, jadi makin mantab n yakin kalo SEX1 canggih n ciamik punya.
Third Impression : Mahal??? hmm gak juga kali ya, kalo fitur2 yg ditawarkan setara sama nilai uang yg dikeluarkan, ya kenapa gak? "Best Value" gitu kali istilahnya,hehe... Mudah2an SE tetap mempertahankan keunggulannya dibandingkan merk2 lain dalam menerapkan "Best Value Handphone" ke harga si SEX1 ini. Mudah2an gak latah ikut2an NOKIA yg menurut gw gak reasonable ngasih harga dibandingkan fitur yg ditawarkan (kecuali seri 6120 classic kali ye, yg menurut gw satu2nya hp NOKIA yg best value sekarang ini). Hehe... sori agak OOT or ngebanding2in.
Final Impression : Gw harus punya nih si SEX1, hehehe... mengkhayal dulu sambil nyiapin kira2 apa alesan buat istri gw kalo gw mau ganti hp lagi,gegeggegegg....

Sori kalo kepanjangan nih impression gw.
Cheers !!!

mission accomplished bro...oalah itu tho the most wanted personnya...
ya ya ya ... jadi ngerti sekarang... **OOT**

sip deh kalo gitu..kalo pgn belajar debat, sering2 aja posting di sono, lumayan ada sparing partner gratis

@Semua : kirain gw doang yang jadi korban si tukang copas ampe bilang,balik ke forum lo sana kok ada ya orang kyk gitu..dibayar berapa sama pabrikan bangkrut itu hehehe

@yoghs
Welcome bro...
Siap2 gak sabar menanti SEX1 dan siap2 berburu si SEX1 aja nanti pas rilis...
Tips: nitip pesen aja sama SESC atau toko hape langganan (kalo ada) jadi biar pas barangnya ada langsung dihubungi n bisa langsung jadi pembeli pertama si SEX1...

@jigonx
hehehe....adu debat koq sama tong kosong, dapet nyaring bunyinya...ya cuman kedengaran gaungnya doank... bener kata bro TRO, pasti klo disuruh terjemahin dikit aja, kagak bisa tu orang

@Ryotaro
Dibayar pake mimpi2 bro sama pabrikan yang mo colaps tu, kan tu pabrikan sering nampilin hape yang bakal dirilis dengan segudang fitur..tapi ujung2nya klo ga fake ya ga jadi dirilis. kasian banget ya tu orang, disuapin sama mimpi2 pabrikan amrik yang menurut GSMarena, bakalan diselamatkan (dibeli atau joint venture) oleh SonyEricsson...nah seumpamanya tu pabrikan emang jadi dibeli, trus tu orang mau bernaung di sub forum apa??
trus orang tu kyknya cocok dengan slogan yang cukup terkenal "loyalty only for slave" ...klo loyal ke SonyEricsson sih itu namanya pinter. lha kalo loyal sama pabrikan yang mo colaps??

**-OOT-**

Tul... ! Gw setuju banget, kalo sebanding ama fitur-fitur yang ada, itu bukan mahal ! tapi wajar !

Kalo gak salah experia x1 ini menawarkan "new experience" (sori, kalo salah mohon dikoreksi), yang artinya pengalaman baru dalam berkomunikasi (he he he... gw tambahin sendiri...)

Tapi emang bener kok, mana ada gadget (Ponsel bikinan produsen ponsel loh, bukan PDA) yang punya :
1. Layar : Touchsrceen
2. Keypad : QWERTY
3. OS : WM
sekaligus ???

Sony Ericsson Experia X1 only !

so gak rugi kok kalo jadi yang pertama punya HP ini, asli !

bro...SEX1 itu ada video call cameranya ga ya? soalnya aku liat di youtube koq kyknya ga ada...jd cmn HSDPA data doank..

ada kok untuk video callnya.
