Hands-on with the OGO

OGO


Harper Reed got to play with the OGO, AT&T Wireless' new handheld messaging device which has a phone number (but isn't a phone) and is aimed mainly at the ever elusive market of pesky kids who live and die by instant messaging (you can do text messaging and email on it, as well as sign up for up to three of the big IM services). It's actually about the same size when closed as the Sidekick (it's clearest competitor—it dwarfs the BlackBerry when it's all unfolded) and he likes the bright LCD screen, but he wasn't able to try the OGO's whole Bluetooth-based Personal Mobile Gateway, except to pair it up with his phone. Oh, and that it could really stand to have a web browser.
