Grab a Sendo Z100 Smartphone in a Store Near You
http://pocketpc.pdablast.com/articles/2002/10/20021025-Sendo-to-Release-Z100.html
... that is, of course, if you live in Spain or Italy. According to pocketpcBlast, the Sendo Z100, which for a long time was believed to be the first Smartphone to hit the streets, will try to beat Orange's Smartphone (SPV) to these markets.
"The long delayed Sendo Z100 smartphone is set to make its debut in November. According to various sources it seems that Sendo is looking to steal some of the thunder from Orange and HTC by releasing the Z100 into the Spanish and Italian markets. The Z100, which was expected to be the first Windows Powered Smartphone to hit the market, will be beaten to market in the UK by Orange's SPV. Sendo is banking on capturing the Spanish and Italian markets before the SPV expands into these countries. It is believed that the Z100 will be the more powerful of the two phones, and the price of the Z100 is expected to be slightly higher than the SPV. The SPV will open with a price of �179 and the price for the Z100 will be �199. Sendo has not released any specific release date. They will only say that the devices will hit market sometime in November. The SPV will go on sale November 11."

I don't see how the Sendo could beat the SPV at this point, I've been using the Sendo for about 3 weeks now and it doesn't have any more features than the SPV and if the SPV's specs are correct, it's has greater color range (Sendo has only 12-color), a slightly smaller form factor, and equal battery life.
Unless Sendo is including a lot more extra software or add-on's I don't see it as worth a greater amount.
