Title: Dopod 900
Pros: One of the first 3G-capable PDA-phones; rock-solid build quality; superb display and keyboard; packed with connectivity, multimedia features and Windows Mobile 5.0; fast processor.
Cons: Bulky and heavy; sub-par camera quality; poor phone implementation; pricey.

Title: SPV M5000 3G Phone Review
Pros: With 3G and a keyboard you should be able to do more with this PDA than with any other.
Cons: The M5000's bulk means you will need a pocket-sized phone for toting around
Verdict: A great smartphone with business bells and whistles
Summary: We've not seen 3G in a Pocket PC before. The closest you've been able to get to something this sophisticated has been using a 3G data card in a PC or a 3G smartphone as a PC modem.

Title: O2 Xda Atom Exec
Verdict: O2's XDA Atom Exec is an incremental upgrade to the original Atom, a move the company hopes will help stave off increasing competition from the likes of HP with its iPaq rw6828 or the upcoming multimedia BlackBerry devices such as the 8100 Pearl. On its o

Title: Product Reviews: O2 XDA Atom Exec
Verdict: The O2 XDA Atom Exec is a super-fast PDA that's very easy to work with, however echo feedback during calls stop it from truly excelling as a primary phone.
Summary: As a phone however, the O2 stumbles slightly. While its audio quality is good, there's a noticeable amount of echo during calls and no matter what we tried with the volume controls, we were unable to get rid of this feedback. This is disappointing conside

Title: Review: Qtek 9000 smart phone
Pros: Quite a bit as it happens.
Cons: The problem with a device that tries to be a jack of all trades is - you guessed it - it ends up being the master of none.
Summary: Laptops? UMPCs? What's the point when a mobile can do it all.

Title: T-Mobile MDA Pro
Pros: The first area where every PDA/Smartphone lets itself down is the keyboard.
Cons: What few problems there are with the device aren't really related specifically to the MDA Pro at all.
Summary: Is the end of laptops nigh? T-Mobile and HTC will make you think so.

Title: Review: i-mate JasJar
Summary: While I was initially turned off by the ominous size and weight of the beast, i-mate's JasJar (aka HTC Universal) managed to win me over with its huge feature set, new UI tweaks, and great wireless connectivity.

Title: HTC Universal review
Summary: Jason Langridge has a rather glowing review of the HTC Universal - apparently its largitude can be forgiven by its action-packed feature set. The device gets high marks for a gorgeous swivel screen (handy for preserving battery life while playing music),

Title: HTC Universal
Summary: We have already seen that T-Mobile are going to rebadge the HTC Universal, followed by Vodafone and Orange, plus we expect other major carriers and independents such as Carrier Devices / i-Mate. But with handsets as capable as this, we do wonder if HTC ar

Title: T-Mobile MDA Pro
Verdict: Despite its quirky design, the MDA Pro really does have it all, whether you're after a clamshell, a Pocket PC-format PDA or just a mobile that offers a bit more. Sign up for the right plan, and it's an absolute steal.
Summary: The MDA Pro is the latest addition to T-Mobile's phone-cum-PDA-cum-kitchen-sink range, and it does everything bar make the tea. Running the latest version of Microsoft's mobile OS and sporting a 72x55mm colour display, it's a worthy replacement for PDA an

Cons: Low contrast ratio, No individual RGB adjustments, Full brightness reduces lamp life, Expensive, Bigger than the average Pocket PC, Keyboard is too small for touch typing, SIM required for 3G or GSM/GPRS use
Verdict: Another HTC Universal-based Pocket PC/phone with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G support, i-mate's JASJAR is available without an operator contract and could appeal to users with existing GPRS or 3G SIMs who are attracted by its flexible clamshell design...

Pros: Compact design, Push email, Speed and performance improvements, Media application
Cons: Not 3G, Not many improvements over the original, Below average camera
Verdict: The Atom Exec on its own is an excellent and compact smart phone packed full of features. If you already own the original, it's not worth an upgrade, but otherwise, this comes highly recommended.

Title: i-mate JASJAR
Summary: It weighs 285g and measures 81mm by 127.7mm by 25mm; given the fact that it's equipped with a 62-key QWERTY keyboard and swivelling touch screen, we're unsure whether to call it a miniaturised laptop PC or a smartphone.

Cons: No blackberry or push email support
Verdict: Reminiscent of a Psion PDA from yesteryear, the MDA has a lot going for it, even if it is on the large side
Summary: - T-mobile has put its faith into five devices that it believes will allow it to dominate the mobile business arena, but does the mobile operator have the right formula for success? We take a look at the MDA pro one of the models the company has high hope
