Anti-Microsoft press praises Windows Mobile phone: Orange SPV M600 review April 10, 2006 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R. It looks like long-year attempts of Andrew Orlowski from The Register to undermine Microsoft's entry into cell phone industry failed, because ultimately his employer keeps publishing nowadays pro-Microsoft reviews, that praise Windows Mobile phones: There are a couple of minor flaws with the M600. The main gripe is the tinny sound you get from the speaker, but using the headset eliminates this problem. The second issue was that the review sample locked up a couple of times during testing, though a soft reset always solved this. However, this is unlikely to be an issue on retail models as my unit used a pre-production version of the operating system. Considering that you can get the M600 for £7 on a £30-a-month tariff, it’s a real bargain. The i-mate JAMin, a version of the M600 that's not tied to any specific network, would set you back £425 without a contract. ... The Orange SPV M600 is an affordable, fully featured Windows Mobile 5 smart phone at a bargain price. It lacks 3G support, but with EDGE you still get fairly decent download speeds and, if you need faster access, the built-in Wi-Fi support gives you the option to access hotspots and other wireless internet links.
