| Review summary | E-TEN's glofiish X500 is an accomplished Pocket PC with GPS antenna, Wi-Fi and FM radio among the standout features. It has good battery life and a range of software extras generous enough to make some other Pocket PC vendors blush Read full review |
Although its battery life could be better, i-mate's PDA2 is a well-specified SIM-free Pocket PC/phone that's VoIP-ready out of the box Read full review |
We like O2's upgraded xda IIi handheld/phone combo as much as we liked the xda II -- which is to say, a lot Read full review |
The XDA Orbit is one of those Pocket PC phones that seems to have more built in than its tiny frame should ever manage to hold together. In fact, it isn't much bigger than your average mobile phone Read full review |
