Overall result of the review is 87% what is not bad. Lack of 3G (i.e. UMTS) is however mentioned as disadvantage and it slowly is becoming a problem in Europe for many Windows Mobile phones. Please note: T-Mobile MD...

Is the reviewer smoking crack?
* Below par battery life
* Quite bulky
* Not 3G
Below par battery life? What a joke.
Quite bulky? It's as small if not smaller than a Treo 700w. What do you want from a device with a full keyboard?
Not 3g? Yeah ok, but the rollout of true 3G is still not prevalent that the device should be criticized for it.

Total Mobile is number one mobile phone magazine in UK, where 3G is already quite popular and coverage quite good. In UK Treo smartphones are not so popular and most popular smartphones are Symbian Series 60 phones thast are quite small...
Anyway: Total Mobile is independent magazine and usually I trust in what it says. |

Well, his assessment of battery life of a Wizard device is incorrect, that's coming from an Imate K-JAM owner.
I would like to read his review of a Treo device. If he doesn't list the size of a Treo as a "con", then he wouldn't sound so credible. Like I said both devices are practically the same size (very, very little difference).

Symbian 60 phones are only popular as they're mostly Nokia or Sony Ericsson and these are popular brands. I've met many people who never realise the potential of their smartphone. |
