Pocket PC Phone Edition/Windows Mobile 6 Professional Models
E-TEN Glofiish M700 March 2007 Take the recently reviewed Glofiish X500 and add a side-sliding QWERTY keyboard and you've got the M700. This "everything but the kitchen sink" PDA phone has WiFi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 2.0 +EDR, a 400MHz Samsung CPU, a 2MP camera with flash, an FM radio and best of all, a SiRFStarIII internal GPS. This quad band GSM world phone has EDGE for data and is sold unlocked for use with any carrier. |

i-mate JAQ3 Jan. 2007 The second Pocket PC phone to sport both a front-facing static keyboard and a QVGA landscape touch screen display (the JAQ was the first). The JAQ3 is a quad band phone with EDGE that's sold by importers unlocked for use with any GSM carrier. It has a very good QWERTY keyboard, WiFi 802.11b/g, Bluetooth and a 2 megapixel camera. The uber-thin JAQ3 looks like a super-sized Samsung BlackJack MS Smartphone, which is a compliment, though its width and height may stretch your pocket. |

Palm Treo 750 Jan. 2007 The latest Windows Mobile Treo Pocket PC Phone gets a lot of love from us. Palm has done more than warm over a Treo 700: this GSM Cingular phone went on a diet, lost the external antenna and gained an improved camera and Bluetooth. Palm's customizations of Windows Mobile and the front-facing QWERTY keyboard make the Treo 750 a breeze to use one-handed. The 300MHz processor, ample RAM and ATI graphics accelerator keep it humming along nicely and 3G plus AKU 3.2 keep the emails flowing in nicely. |
||
HTC P3300 and XDA Orbit Jan. 2007 These two phones are variations of the HTC Artemis. Though they have different casings, they're identical inside. They are Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC phones and the HTC P3300 is sold unlocked while the XDA Orbit is offered by O2 in Europe. Features include a very compact design, internal GPS, quad band GSM phone with EDGE for data, a 2MP camera, WiFi and Bluetooth. We got a hold of both models for this review. |
||
E-TEN Glofiish X500 Jan. 2007 The X500 wants to be your everything. It's a Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC, a quad band GSM phone and a GPS.

Cingular 8525 and HTC TyTN Nov. 2006 This worthy successor to the HTC Wizard line of devices including the Cingular 8125 really wow-d us. We take an in-depth look at both the Cingular 8525 and the HTC TyTN which are non-identical twins running on both the US and European 3G networks with support for HSDPA. This quad band GSM world phone sports a 400Mhz CPU, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi 802.11b/g and has an excellent slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Its 2.0MP is the best we've seen on a Windows Mobile phone and the device is ready for serious business work and multimedia fun. The Cingular 8525 is sold by Cingular in the US and the HTC TyTN is sold unlocked by importers for use with any GSM carrier. |
||
Palm Treo 700wx Sept. 2006 Though Verizon had an eight month exclusive on the first Windows Mobile Treo, Sprint makes it worth the wait by doubling memory (much needed) and including both DUN and push email support out of the box. The Treo 700wx runs Windows Mobile 5.1 on a 312MHz processor with 64 megs of RAM and 60 megs of available flash ROM. It has Bluetooth, a 1.3 megapixel camera and EVDO (Sprint's Power Vision) for fast data. Well worth a serious look if you've been hankering for a Windows Mobile Treo. |
||
HP iPAQ hw6915 May and Oct. 2006 While the iPAQ hw6515 didn't meet our view of perfection, HP's new Windows Mobile 5 model, the hw6915 comes pretty close.

BenQ P50 July 2006 (released in 2005) The P50 was billed as the "Treo killer" when BenQ first showed it off back in 2004. Though it took quite a long time to hit the market (too late to eclipse the Treo), this quad band GSM PPC phone has some strong points: front-facing QWERTY keyboard, WiFi, Bluetooth, a fast CPU and it's unlocked for use with any GSM carrier. It runs Windows Mobile 2003SE rather than the current Windows Mobile 5 operating system. |
||
HP iPAQ hw6515 Sept. 2005 The Pocket PC phone that tries to do it all: it has a thumb keyboard, 1.3MP camera and a GPS.

Though offered by importers rather than US carriers, the phone is reasonably priced and worth a look! |
