T-Mobile uses Pocket PC device | |
|
||
| Time: 17:59 EST/22:59 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Byron Hinson | ||
|
Wireless carrier T-Mobile announced Thursday that it is selling a device using Microsoft's Pocket PC Phone Edition software, making it the first to do so in the United States. T-Mobile's Pocket PC Phone Edition combines cell phone and organizer features as well as voice and data capabilities, which will let customers wirelessly surf the Web and send and receive e-mail. The device will cost $550, but T-Mobile is offering a $50 rebate on the device for the next 45 days for subscribers who agree to a one-year service contract. The device runs on T-Mobile's GSM (global system for mobile communications) and GPRS (general packet radio service) wireless networks. | ||

| As long as you are more interested in its Pocket PC side than the phoning side it is pretty good |

Hi Byron ...How are you?
I've seen the one from Verizon (Thera), and I've seen it work, and so far I'm impressed with it. I actually support PDAs at work from a lot of other things that I support ...but I will let you know how it goes. |

| The problem with the Thera is that it's not used like a normal phone, you have to (or are supposed to, radiation?) wear a headset. Can this new one be used like a normal cell phone? |

| Is the device Sim-locked? |

| If it makes any difference to anyone - O2 (UK Company) are sending us their XDA for review soon so if anyone is looking to buy one (they just dropped in price to £400) we should let you know exactly what it is like very soon. |
