Advantages: feature packed, tomtom gps

Disadvantages: battery life, size

This is a fully featured pda/phone. It has wifi, a camera, bluetooth, unlocked mobile phone and gps. I like the touchscreen (which requires a stylus) although if the screen gets damaged it is quite expensive to replace. The small qwerty keyboard makes it easy to input longer texts/emails compared to the on screen keyboard.

The pda/phone is a little bulky compared to most smartphones and the screen would have been better if it were a higher resolution.

The windows mobile interface has a familiar feel even though it can seem limiting and freeze if trying to work too quickly. The camera is not really up to much.

I love the gps system which is basically the same as the tomtom in your car. You only have to get the maps on an sd card and your away. So it's great value for money with all these features.

The phone is unlocked and although basic it does the job and call clarity and reception is very clear. The wifi works great and pocket explorer makes websites seem familiar although it would be better to have a larger screen.

The major downside is the battery life - you'll be lucky to get through a day of heavy use and it's a no-no with the gps. The other negative is the bulkiness and weight.

Summary: great featured filled pda/phone with tomtom gps
