Best PDAs - GSM 1900 Cell Phone Band, 4 to 5 Hours Talk Time, Mini-USB Interface Method

'There are no included PIM tools,'

'the N810's problematic third-party software in general, may keep it from taking the PDA world by storm.'

'call quality was subpar in our tests.'

'bulky and expensive'

'the more squarish plug of the headphones won't fit into a normal mini-USB port.'

'The call quality of the Shadow could be better, particularly the speakerphone.'

'slow scroll wheel response'

'the Shadow's keyboard isn't ideal for composing long messages'

'The bad: The Touch's onscreen keyboard is improved,'

'EDGE speeds measured by JBenchmark Net were slow, though, at 71 Kbps down and 22 Kbps up.'

'very small green and red call control keys'

'Though we never had any problems with the old design, we do like this extra functionality.'

'large and heavy phone'

'The bad: There's no 3G support'

'no rich desktop-style Web browser'

'large attachments could take a great deal of time even if you were on the fastest wireless G connection possible.'

'Music playback through the phone's speakers sounded weak and tinny.'

'those coming from other devices might have a small learning curve.'

'Other flip phones'

'lack of a full keyboard or touch screen'

'the 1.3-megapixel camera is relatively poor; photos had a greenish tint and seemed a bit dark, with evidence of exposure, color noise, and contrast problems both indoors and out.'

'If you include photos in your contacts, then it will even display the picture, though arguably at so small a size that it's virtually useless.'
