Review This is a well-priced Windows Mobile handheld/GPS navigation solution, although the wired car-only GPS receiver may not be to all tastes.

Orange SPV M500 review

Orange SPV M500 review

Review If you can live with a 2.8in. screen, relatively little on-board memory and no built-in Wi-Fi, then Orange's SPV M500 is a good choice of handheld/phone combo.

HP iPAQ hw6515 Mobile Messenger review

Review HP's iPAQ hw6515 Mobile Messenger is potentially a very useful device for mobile professionals, particularly those needing convenient navigation functionality. But its limited battery life and lack of Wi-Fi are serious drawbacks.

i-mate PDA2 review

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.

Eten M500 review

Eten M500 review

Review 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.

T-Mobile MDA Compact review

T-Mobile MDA Compact review

Review We like T-Mobile's MDA Compact as much as we liked the similar i-mate JAM. The only drawbacks -- of both devices -- are limited memory and lack of built-in Wi-Fi.

Review There isn't too much the PalmOne LifeDrive can't do with its integrated hard drive, its wireless connectivity and its multimedia capabilities, but it's way too expensive.
