Hi,

Anybody knows if it's possible to edit and modify an excel sheet with the P900?

Any other smartphone can do this job?(Nokia communicator?)

What about connecting a Bluetooth GPS on P900???

Thanks

well i DO know you can edit word in it. possibly powerpoint but i DONT think you can edit exel on it. first of all i havent heard anything about it and its kinda difficult doing it on a PDA.
but im not sure
Michael should answer that. he did the review

I could not edit anything with it.

In that regard it was the same as the P800.

could it be that they sent you a not so updated P900 model?
you did say if i can remember correctly that the OS program or something wasnt so updated and that you hoped they would do so before it came out for sale

would be cool if you could edit words with it. then i could change/finish/correct documents im turning in to my professor while im on the train heading to school

It is quite possible that newer version allow editing of word documents and such, but I have no way of knowing that.

Mine certainly did not.

The SE P900 site doesn't say anything about Offic documents at all as far as I can see.

Apparently SE ship applications on an extra CD which allow editing of Office documents. This is just a rumor though.

HI everybody,


MSOffice support Able to VIEW Word, Excel and Power Point documents (among others) (Edit available in third-party solutions)

My question : what's the meaning of third-party solutions???



Any other smartphone or pda phone can do this job?? Please tell me it's possible to phone and work in the middel of nowhere in 2003....with the same device...(eventually with bluetooth if it not too much)

But without software to do something with that link....

Quickoffice, u can download a demo version, which last for 15 days.
It support reading and writing to the Duo, which is good. Free up memory on my P800.:)

Wayfinder have a GPS SW for Symbian. They are currently in progress of updating their SW for UIQ as stated in howards forum. It look nice.
