    king and others, i need advice ..

    Question 1 --> I got a Samsung Star S5233A, with no stylus. Firmware is S523AJPIE9, which is rare! Can I still update ??

    Question 2 --> Also, how is the new firmware's main menu different from the one in S5233A?

    Question 3 --> Lastly, does this new firmware have handwriting recognition feature in it ?? My S5233A does not have it ..

                                  Friends...
                                  Plz suggest a phone 4 me, among touchscreen phones.
                                  my few needs for a phone is battery life,call clarity, good touch screen, value for money, good camera output, internet when using GPRS and less bugs.
                                  thr is no mandatory for 3G, GPS & Wifi. Price is also a factor for choosing. I can afford the price of 5800 XM. I like the price of Samsung Star and LG Cookie.
                                  Can i wait for 5530 XM?
                                  apart from these 4, plz suggest if any other........
