Almost all of the benfits of smartphone technolgy, squeezed into a much more practical size.
QuickTake:
Pros: Microsoft's new OS is a decent improvement over previous versions basically because running applications is now a lot quicker.
Cons: Though the SPV C600's greatest strength lies in its simplicity and compact size, it is difficult to escape the fact that the real potential of the Windows Mobile OS lies in office tasks which invariably benefit from the use of a QWERTY keyboard.
