Overview

Eten M500

Editors rating
Rating: 7.7
Verdict

The Eten M500 is a strong Pocket PC/phone combo, that's available SIM-free. There are some minor design niggles and there's no built-in Wi-Fi, but battery life is impressive and it comes with a good software bundle.

Typical price

£ 399

Featured Talkback

Put simply, what is the compelling reason to pay ~$200 extra for an Eee with Windows XP? A Windows Eee won't come with any useful applications and you'll have to buy anti-virus software to boot. The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
