O2 Xda Terra with Windows Mobile 6 is NOT on sale yet
April 29, 2007 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

First Windows Mobile 6 devices are actually for sale now. How could that slip?


(on photo above: possibly the first Windows Mobile 6 powered phone that went on sale)

We have checked it ourselves and although O2 Xda Terra is listed online it is not available yet in brick-and-mortar shops...

... and that is why we have not reported it yet - unlike some other sources that report - without checking! - things that operators or manufacturers tell them to report!

Some highlights about O2 Xda Terra Windows Mobile 6 phone:
  • powered by Windows Mobile 6 Professional (the one with touch screen and mobile phone functionality)
  • display of resolution 240x320 pixels
  • slide-out QWERTY keyboard (in Germany: in QWERTZ layout)
  • 2.0 megapixel camera (no autofocus)
  • WiFi 802.11b (no 802.11g)
  • Bluetooth
  • quand-band GSM/GPRS, no 3G (no UMTS, no HSDPA, no video calling)
  • micro-SD card slot
  • interestingly: Outlook 2007 Trial Version is bundled with the phone - apparently times when full version of Outlook was bundled with all Windows Mobile phones are over!

Conclusion: while this and some other Windows Mobile 6 phones are not on sale on the street yet, they can be ordered online with short delivery times. O2 Xda Terra is not a high end phone but rather price effective low-end Windows Mobile phone with touch screen. Since in Europe at most operators there are no unlimited flat tariffs, the lack of 3G might be not a problem.
