The Viewsonic V35
Review of ViewSonic Pocket PC V35 by Williham

Advantages: Cheap, powerful, can be upgraded to windows mobile 2003
Disadvantages: Low memory, not a large amount of accessories available

I purchased my Viewsonic V35 pda because i was looking for a fairly powerful pda to run games, internet applications and act as a media player, also i didnt have a large budget so the v35 was perfect. In the box was the pda, the manual, a cradle to connect to your pc, and a usb cable to connect to your pc, also a small pouch to protect the pda from damage. When i saw there was no ac adapter i was fairly worried, but soon realised that the pda would ...
...tried to get help from viewsonic to fix this but they no longer manufacture them so they refused. I also found out while searching the internet for a solution that many other people have had this problem with the v35, so it is not just me. In conclusion i would advise against the Viewsonic V35, it may seem very good value for money, but you will be forced to pay for a new pda very soon when the screen corrupts. It is not worth it. ...

A capable unit for a reasonable price.
Review of Toshiba Pocket PC E750 Bluetooth by Vicster1784

Advantages: Not too expensive, great features, beautiful screen
Disadvantages: A bit out-dated

...pdf’s) Overall I’m very pleased with this device – it does all I want it to without any hassle. If you are after a capable PocketPC device and don’t want to pay Ipaq’s ludicrous price, then Toshiba should be top of your list. Mine cost me just under 300 dollars. ... Read review

Blackberry Pearl? More of a diamond...
Review of Blackberry Pearl 8110 by mallamaloo

Advantages: Does most things it should simply and well whilst still being phone sized
Disadvantages: Viewing some attachments is virtually impossible

...I also get a blackberry instant message from a mate asking if I want to go for lunch. Nice! On the train to work I look at the emails to see what I'm going to face when I get to the office. Not much to worry about so I fire up the brickbreaker, the 'pearl' in the middle has taken some getting used to with brickbreaker but I'm starting to get some decent scores. More seriously though the 'pearl' at first is a little awkward but before long you're ...
...can get it on the blackberry as it's a word doc (pdfs I don't even bother trying because it's a nightmare with the blackberry). On the way home I catch up on a few emails, the predictive texting is ok and takes some getting used to but I'm a speed demon on it now so I can ping off a couple of emails within five mins. Sort that out and then text the wife to let her know my train time. I wouldn't say this is a smart phone, personal digital assistant ... Read review

Nokia n96
Review of Nokia N96 by Gippon

Advantages: Massive internal memory with option to expand, large 2.8" display, wi-fi support, 5 MP camera
Disadvantages: Same battery as n95, annoying camera button, no light sensor or integrated graphics chip

...sleeker than both the original Nokia n95 and the n95 8GB. This is in part due to the removal of the camera slider which was present on the n95 and it is also using the same battery as the original n95 (950MhA). This could be seen as a disadvantage considering the awful battery life of the original n95, this problem was somewhat addressed by Nokia with the release of the n95 8GB which included a higher capacity battery (1200MhA). However Nokia have ...
...in landscape mode. This time Nokia have realised this by the inclusion of a "kick stand" on the back of the phone positioned under the camera. This acts as a stand so the phone can be angled at viewing pleasure when it is placed upon a surface. The camera itself is the same from the n95 and n95 8GB and like the n95 8GB this does not contain a slider for extra protection. Nokia have now included dual LEDs for flash photography but I personally would ... Read review

The Bold and the Beautiful
Review of BlackBerry Bold 9000 by mynameisrui

Advantages: Great looking, very easy to use
Disadvantages: Poor Battery

After recently getting the Blackberry Bold I thought I'd share my thoughts about it. Traditionally a Blackberry is known for being solely aimed at the business market with one of its main selling points being the fact that you have constant email access which is of course very important for some people. They were not aimed at the consumer market in terms of looks or capabilities. However, the Blackberry Bold (BB) aims to change that. With the recent ...
...the Blackberry isn't so businessey and may have some appeal to the consumer market. The BB has been very much designed not only for practical reasons, but also in order to attract potential new customers. Gone are the brick like Blackberry's and in is the very attractive looking Blackberry Bold. Design Looking at the phone from the outside it certainly looks very good. On the front you are presented with a full QWERTY keyboard which is sized very ... Read review
