Default pocketnow.com Reviews the E-TEN glofiish X500

http://pocketnow.com/index.php?a=po...=reviews&id=885

"E-TEN, who historically hasn't surprised us with a truly compelling device, has created a new brand within itself: glofish. The first device from glofish carries quite a claim - to be the "World's thinnest Pocket PC Phone, GPS and WiFi all-in-one." With that claim, they've got our attention. Is this the device that many have been waiting for, or was usability sacrificed for the sake of thinness? We'll take a thorough look at the E-TEN glofish X500 to see whether it should *keep* our attention. Read on to see what we found!"



Brandon at pocketnow.com has just reviewed E-TEN's glofiish X500. Overall, it's a pretty sweet device: GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, FM radio, camera, fast, and lightweight, although it lacks support for 3G and doesn't have a QWERTY keyboard (if you're that sort of person). Do give his review a read, as it covers a lot of details. If you're interested in a Pocket PC Thoughts review, check back here within a fortnight.

Not a fan of the microsd however...

- also the lack of windows button and ok button are a big no-no for a PPC phone.

I was in the same boat a few months back, but it's really not an issue these days. A 1GB microSD can be picked up for about $40.
