As of early August, 2004, more than 10 different models were available worldwide, with more on the way. Even the Wall Street Journal predicts that Smartphones are the future of mobile communications! This article focuses on the features that help differentiate one device from another and lists the pros and cons of each."</i><br /><br />This article by Stephan Schmidt was obviously written a couple months ago, but it has just now appeared in my news feeds. Regardless, it's still a good article for anyone who is trying to decide what Smartphone would best fit their needs. If you've been thinking of getting a Smartphone, but don't know which one to choose, I would strongly suggest you read this article to help you with your research. 8)

Good compilation. 8)

Noticed a typo. C500 Cons states "No built-in camera." :?

Ditto Voq - Cons say "No built in POP3 support" ???

Glad that you mentioned. I read that too and was wondering, did Sierra block POP3/IMAP4 so that its own push email system can be promoted. :?

Good to know that Voq has POP3/IMAP4 support just like other WM2003 devices. :)

way too many errors in the report... makes it so untrustworthy.
