T-Mobile MDA Compact III Review

The Compact III isn't your average Pocket PC phone. If you buy one people may still "think" it's a normal PDA but wait - it's far more than that. First up there's the control mechanism. When I first heard that it came with a trackball I ...

HTC P4350 Review

T-Mobile MDA Compact II (Pink) Review!

Hot on the heels of the T-Mobile MDA Vario (reviewed here) comes the MDA Compact II. This time it comes in graphite or this "WoAh!!!!" baby pink colour. We had the pink one in for testing, and to be honest as a man about town I doubt I'd …

Orange SPV M600 Review

SanDisk Ultra II 2Gb SD card

What can I say about the SanDisk Ultra II 2.0Gb SD card ? Well, to be honest you can't say much. That's not a bad thing either. This thing is massive - it's like the tardis. It's amazing to think that I had a hard drive in my …
