The Windows Mobile 6 upgrade is now available to o2 XDA Trion users in Germany here. You'll need to enter your serial number for verification and, as always, it'll blip your settings and documents so backup first. HTC now appear to be controlling ROM ...
We're going to have to start paying Johnny De'Silva. He's come through again with another exclusive - the Samsung SGH-i620, and it's coming to Vodafone UK. The QWERTY device has a keyboard that neatly slides up behind the main screen and it's now list...
You may notice that we've been pimping the guys at devicewire recently. It's for the greater good - we get to borrow a device to review and you guys then get to decide whether you'd like to buy it or not. But wait, devicewire have sent us an …
DrEvil has emailed in regarding the HTC Touch (review here). He's just got off the phone to T-Mobile and, according to them, the slightly-renamed T-Mobile MDA Touch is now on their screens at £119.99 for a 18 month contract. Interestingly the lady sa...
I've just put the finishing touches to our review of the HTC P6300 Panda. It's big, it's bulky, it uses SD cards and it runs Windows Mobile 5.0. So why buy it ? Well, to be honest I was a little stumped at first, but despite my reservations …
Alright stop, let's be honest for a minute. There's a lot of things I'd still like to change about Windows Mobile. Screen switching still takes longer than it should and the standard home screen is as dull as can be. Following the launch of the iPhone...
If you're in the USA then there's no doubt many of your friends and colleagues will be busy showing off their new iPhone. Here in Europe we've avoided most of the hype so far but there's no doubt that queues will be forming outside Apple stores soon e...
There's news today that this, the Motorola Ming (yes, they really have called it that), will appear with Windows Mobile under the hood. The current Motorola specs seem contradict this, with "SyncML" being used to sync and the user manual showing no re...
I've neglected to mention a brilliant application called My Mobiler. It's a little bit like the old ActiveSync Remote Display from years back although this is easier to install and comes with more functionality. Not only will it let you view your mobi...
Right, that's it. I've had dozens of emails about Mobile YouTube and how great it is for mobile users. Many have asked why we haven't covered this, especially after we mentioned several ways to get YouTube vids on your phone. Well, the simple fact is ...
Following earlier reports that the HTC Kaiser (which we reviewed here) is about to hit Germany as the T-Mobile Vario III, Arne at the Unwired has now had a look at the actual T-Mobile branded unit. Munich played host to the press event where this M...
Every few months I mention this rather excellent website. It's crammed full of rather sexy homescreens / themes for your Smartphone (Windows Mobile Standard) to make your phone look all pretty and nice. In my book Kleinweder is still the best site for...
Our mate Mark Surry has dropped us a line about this iMate website. It's promoting the "Ultimate Edition" range of handsets that we've heard so much about but not yet seen. The specs are fantastic and shops like Expansys are showing them as "coming so...
Following our previous story Tim also has the HP iPAQ 500 Smartphone, which comes with WiFi and VoIP calling. It's got a 200Mhz TI OMAP 850 CPU, 64Mb RAM / 128Mb ROM and GSM/EDGE connectivity. You also get Bluetooth 1.2, a 1.3 megapixel camera and Mic...
Tim Carmichael has got his hands on a HTC Cavalier - the successor to the current HTC Excalibur (aka the o2 XDA Cosmo / T-Mobile Dash). Here it is as the Dopod c730 - but wait, it appears that a batch of these devices have wonky battery covers …
Here it is, our HTC Kaiser review. There's word that this device is set to become the TyTn II and as usual our review is bursting with ultra close-up photos, videos and details. Unlike what you may see elsewhere this is the complete, HTC branded devic...
Writing a review can take a while, so while you're waiting for our HTC P4550 / HTC Kaiser review to be published I've had an idea. Why not do a quick 6-minute video to show our first impressions? Well, here's the result. I've literally had the device ...
Here it is, the HTC Kaiser / HTC P4550. There's only one thing missing from this device, and that's the kitchen sink. It's got everything - a scroll wheel, 3G (oh, and HSPDA, EDGE and GPRS) , WiFi, video calling, GPS, 400Mhz CPU, 128Mb of RAM and 256M...
Being patient isn't one of my strong points, but when we were told back in April that HTC devices would be getting upgrades to Windows Mobile 6 I thought it wouldn't take too long. Palm, too, said in March that WM 6 would be coming to the 750v …
