The C600 is no exception, and has a stylish design with a grey / black-ish colour which is a treat for the eyes. Looking at the lines of the C600 brings back memories of its older brother, but it feels a little bit thicker and heavier. However, like the C550, the C600 sits well in the hand and has a very solid casing and a keypad which is easy to use. At the bottom there's the usual MiniUSB port for charging and sync'ing. Data transfers are now sped up with USB 2.0 fully supported thanks to Windows Mobile 5. Like the C500 and C550 the miniSD card is under the battery."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20050919-C600Review.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />CoolSmartphone has posted a review of the the upcoming Orange C600 Smartphone. It's a pretty sweet looking phone, unfortunately we don't know when it will be released or at what price. There are lots of pictures of the device, a number of screen shots, and some test pictures from the camera. This could very well be the same phone that Audiovox will be releasing to replace the SMT5600. 8)

that's a pretty sharp looking phone...if i were limited to an EDGE-only device, this would certainly be in the running. i wonder why this style of phone doesn't have the wifi module?

You know, I read some place a while ago that the WiFi module was an OEM option. I wonder if it's a true option, and not a different HTC product/codename. So the Faraday could have it - if the OEM wanted, or it could go WiFi free - again, if the OEM wanted it.

So, it would be the same product, just a different option. If so, it's going to make things really, really confusing. :-(

if all three HTC candy-bar devices had wifi and EDGE or at least wifi, i prefer this phone because of its looks. you're right, tho...all these devices are confusing. the only way for me to know i got the right one is to buy them all!!!
