Hands-on with Samsung's SGH-i780
Arne over at the::unwired had a chance to get a hands-on with Samsung's newest Windows Mobile 6 Pro -- yes, Professional, with touchscreen -- offering, the SGH-i780. This BlackJack lookalike packs a 400 MHz CPU, tri-band GSM with 2100 MHz UMTS / HSDPA, WiFi, Bluetooth, an A-GPS receiver, and 256 / 128 ROM and RAM in an almost standardized Samsung QWERTY package. The i780 features a 320 x 320 resolution screen and the odd-looking d-pad seen above can actually be used as a mouse for on screen pointing. This looks like a serious bit of kit and here's hoping it zooms its way over here early in the new year -- though of course, no promises.
Hands-on with O2's Xda terra
While O2 announced two new Windows Mobile handsets yesterday -- the Xda terra and nova -- sadly, we were only able to get our mitts on one of them this morning at CeBIT. It seems the Nova part of the "Terra Nova" duo was missing in action, as the device is apparently still being tweaked to perfection by the gents at O2. Unlike its HTC Herald-based twins known as the Vodafone VPA Compact IV, Dopod C800, and the original HTC P4350, the Terra flies out the door rockin' Windows Mobile 6 Professional. Thinner than the TyTn and sporting that full QWERTZ keyboard we all love, you can expect it to hit 02 retail in May. Hands-on with O2's xda terra
