I'm both annoyed and frustrated by this Guardian story which states that Virgin Mobile UK have sold less than 10,000 of their Lobster 700TV handsets, despite dropping the price heavily and launching a massive advertising campaign with Pamela Anderson....
The lack of a multi-touch screen on a Pocket PC secretly causes people to curse daily when they try and tap a number in quickly using the dialpad. Perhaps a way around this is to combine the slide-out QWERTY keyboard with a standard numeric keypad on ...
Sure, I may be sat in my hammock here in Cancun, but I'm still here to bring you the latest news. Today it's the HTC Cavalier, which looks to be the successor to the current HTC Excalibur - seen as the o2 XDA Cosmo and T-Mobile Dash. TheBoyGenius …
Are you having problems with your o2 XDA Orbit or T-Mobile MDA Compact III ? Well, it seems that there's a possible issue with the transfer of data on storage cards. According to this forum the issue seems to arise when files are deleted. This simple ...
The o2 Zinc we spotted earlier looks to have slipped slightly. A release date of March is now being shown on the o2 site with a March launch date. If you're interested in this handset you can still click here to be informed when it's ready. Link - …
A lot of people will have seen the HTC Universal. It's available as the Orange SPV M5000 and the o2 XDA Exec, however HTC plan to shrink it down to look a bit like our artists impression. The resulting smaller device will be called the HTC Omni - …
We've been busy beavering away on this rather huge HTC P4350 review of late and it's now available for your delectation. The P4350, soon to be seen as the Vodafone VPA Compact IV, has a full auto-sliding QWERTY keyboard and comes complete with both Ad...
All-round top geezer Johnny De'Silva has just emailed in with some fantastic scans from the o2 UK catalogue. Inside is o2's XDA Orbit and you could indeed be forgiven for thinking that it's pretty much the same handset as the T-Mobile MDA Compact III ...
I've just taken a trip into town and picked up the latest Orange catalogue. Inside is the Orange SPV M700, proudly sat on the "Coming Soon" pages with the following details beside it. The larger version of this page is below and, although we've seen i...
With nothing but bilge on TV over Christmas it's good to see plenty of news in the Windows Mobile world. HPC.ru have managed to get their hands on more of the HTC roadmap for 2007. The HTC Kaiser, shown top left, is first up and comes in a …
Here's the UMPC known as the HTC Athena. Err.. wait.. is it a UMPC (Ultra Mobile PC) ? In fact no, it's running Windows Mobile (Pocket PC) and comes with a detachable keyboard. We first started seeing computer generated images of this device a while ...

Our T-Mobile MDA Compact III review is now online. Sure, you may have seen reviews before but there's nothing quite like a CoolSmartPhone review. Filled to the brim with pictures, screenshots and movies it also comes with a look into CoPilot too. The...
The HTC Vox - a QWERTY / numeric keypad-combo device - has yet again appeared on the internet. You'll have to excuse the badly placed Smartphone screenshot, however it does tally with previous suspisions of a Smartphone OS... then again, who knows?! W...
Virgin Mobile Lobster 700TV owners will now be able to enjoy Channel 4 Live. Previously only available in "bite size" edited chunks, Channel 4 will add to the existing BBC One*, ITV1, E4 and ITN News. There's already some fantastic offers available on...
Remember how we told you how cheap the Virgin Mobile Lobster 700TV was ? Well, how about getting it for absolutely nothing ?! Yup, on the Virgin £25 contract or above you get the phone for absolutely nothing but wait - even if you want just the £20 …
I have a slight dilema. Granted it's not your "every day" dilema, however I'm going to try and turn it into a very useful article for you guys. The problem? Well, take a look at the picture. I now have not one, but two T-Mobile MDA Compact III …
Here's the Lobster 700TV handset that we reviewed earlier. Paul at MoDaCo has done some fishing around and he's found it selling for £90.98 with £50 worth of call credit! How good is that eh? To get this offer you just need to visit this page and no...
Wehay! Look what arrived this morning (larger picture here). It's a T-Mobile MDA Compact III along with CoPilot Live 6 ! Strictly speaking this is actually my work phone, but I did "encourage" them to go with Windows Mobile handsets so there's now an ...
We've seen quite a few new devices from HTC of late - the Excalibur, Herald and the Hermes that we've already reviewed as the T-Mobile MDA Vario II and Orange SPV M3100. Now here's another - a QWERTY sliding... Smartphone. It's got quad-band GSM / EDG...
Crumbs! It's December 1st! Soon it'll be that time of year when I'll be eating turkey and getting more drunk than usual. So, it's time to think about Christmas presents and top of the list for many people is a sat-nav system like TomTom etc. A lot of …
We were first to tell you about the availability of the o2 XDA Orbit the other day. This, of course, means that there's room for new handsets on o2's "coming soon" page .. well, lookie here! It's none other than the o2 XDA Zinc with it's Intel PXA270 …
Just 20 days ago we were first with the news that o2 UK were getting ready to push the GPS-equipped XDA Orbit. Well, the news gets even better - it's now available to buy from £85.10 and it comes with free CoPilot sat-nav worth £159.99! (Yes, you re...
The Italian people are fantastic. They're responsible for pizza, pasta and some rather excellent cars. They also get scoops, with the first ever shots of the HTC Cavalier showing online here. Looking pretty much identical to the HTC Excalibur it's a w...
It's been a long time coming, but it's now online here. Our T-Mobile Vario II review contains the usual mountain of photographs, screenshots, videos and details. The Vario II is the T-Mobile version of the HTC Hermes and is also out on various network...
Check this out - it's the o2 XDA Flame. This pocket-rocket has an NVIDIA GoForce GPU and 3.6" VGA screen. At the heart of this beast is an Intel Xscale PXA 270 CPU running at 520Mhz with a massive 2Gb of Flash ROM and 64Mb RAM. The specs …
Two new handsets have been launched today. Firstly the P4350 - yet another new device from HTC. The P4350 is just 17mm thing and comes with the familiar slide-away keyboard which is apparently "semi-automatic". There's also a 200MHz processor, quad-ba...
Here it is, the Orange SPV M700. The appearance of the M700 in the "coming soon" section of the Orange in-store catalogues is evidence enough that the device should hopefully be with us before Santa is. The details in the November catalogue are pretty...
Well, although we could almost see it coming, it looks like the Orange SPV C700 has finally hit the buffers. We mentioned the battery problems that plagued the handset during testing, however there was a continual glimmer of hope as it popped up in Or...
Now, stick with me on this one because it might get confusing. Orange, as you'll know, are to launch the Orange SPV M700. It's made by HTC and it's called the Trinity. There's been rumours about GPS in this device but it looks like it's either an opti...
We're the first site in the planet to get hold of the official Press Release and launch details of the T-Mobile MDA Compact III. It's the first device from a UK mobile operator to offer built-in GPS and is also available with CoPilot® Live 6 satellit...
Orange France are to carry a new handset soon called the SPV M650. This will be the GPS-enabled HTC Artemis / P3300 we've seen previously. There's a story on this at mobinaute.com, however it's backed up by info at Orange.fr plus pictures hidden away ...
The o2 XDA Stealth is now selling across Australia, Singapore and beyond. The Stealth, shown here, is a clever phone / PDA combination featuring all the usual Pocket PC flexibility coupled with a phone-style design and slide-down numeric keyboard. The...
We love our readers. In fact, if we had enough cash then we'd take you all to the pub and buy everyone their favourite drink. Two emails have just come in - one from Johnny DeSilva who's spotted that the Orange SPV M700 has appeared in the "Coming …
Thanks to Brian for tipping us off on the availability of the T-Mobile MDA Compact III. This is now showing in the Business section of the T-Mobile website here. It's the same handset you should also see coming soon on o2 UK as the XDA Orbit. The MDA …
Yes, we're first with the news again. Guess what this is? Yes, it's the new o2 XDA Orbit and it's now on the o2 UK website. Wait though, it's only just appeared on the "Coming Soon" pages so you'll have to wait a bit longer yet. It shouldn't …
Two more handsets from Dopod have just appeared - the M700, pictured left and the P800W, pictured right. The M700 is a tweaked version of HTC Artemis giving 256Mb of memory to deliver a more music-centric experience. It comes with built-in FM radio, a...
We've seen reviews of the HTC Herald already but now it looks like Dopod are to release it as C800. The device is pretty much a thinner version of the SPV M3100 or T-Mobile MDA II devices you're seeing on the streets now and comes with a TI …
As an update to our earlier story we've been digging around for news of this handset. On a recent visit to an Orange store there were hardly handsets from the SPV range - just the M3100 and the M600. So where are the new SPV's ? Well, Jason …
As we mentioned earlier in our Virgin Mobile Lobster 700TV review, TV channel "ITN News" was showing up on the Lobster handset but was testing at the time. Now, however, Virgin Mobile have added the 24 hour news channel officially giving you all the l...
