Pros: More options and versatility than you can imagine, cool, useful
Cons: Expensive, signing the contract
Summary: I have had a run of bad luck. A couple of months ago I won a Palm Pilot through a work contest and have become very comfortable using it. Well, we has our quarterly meeting a couple of weeks ago and I was informed that we are heading toward the T- ... read more

Pros: PDA portion worked well enough; bright screen, nice format.
Cons: Phone service nonexistent in my area; horrendous customer service.
Summary: I bought this item online, so I could receive calls from my patients. I received it 6 days after it was shipped. I understood I had a 21 day trial, free of charge (except for online use), as long as my use was 12 minutes or less. I liked it pretty ... read more

Pros: Compact. Well thought out.Cool looking
Cons: Crash, crash, crash. drop call, drop call, drop call. Erratic coverage. System bugs
Summary: T-mobile has the most friendly helpful customer oriented people I have ever spoken with in the cell business. This, however cannot substitute for a device that is loaded with problems. And does this device line ever have issues.
In 7 weeks I ... read more

Pros: Two features in one. GSM network.
Cons: Price.
Summary: I purchased my unit about six months ago. I first bought the simular product from AT&T. But AT&T's GSM network is still under development. So it did not work around my home. I had to return their product.
But since purchasing my T-Mobile Pocket ... read more

Pros: Clear colour screen, handsfree audio, plentiful software, well integrated with phone, good battery.
Cons: Annoying bugs in software, GPRS useless, not tri-band, no camera or bluetooth, small memory.
Summary: The phone I have is actually sold by O2 in the UK as an "xda" (meaning a PDA converged with a phone), but it appears to be identical in most respects to the T-Mobile Pocket PC. It's actually made by HTC (www.htccorporation.com) in Taiwan. Portabilit ... read more

Pros: The universal device, powerful, pretty
Cons: Expensive, stability
Summary: My previous attempt at PDA/phone convergence, the Handspring Treo 180, ended as a failure. You can read more about why I thought so in a separate review here on epinions. So needless to say, I was skeptical of the T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone and didn't ... read more

Pros: One device, anywhere in the world
Cons: A bit large; inconvenient if you don't have a hand's free kit
Summary: One device, anywhere in the world (GSM) - the dream is here - I was really frustrated at first with the lost calls and hanging 5 times a day, but they now have a patch out and after installing it, I have had almost NO instances of hanging. A new keyboard ... read more

Pros: Everything you need, all in one place.
Cons: Price, locks up every so often.
Summary: This is definitely the phone that Inspector Gadget would want. My Palm V died several months ago, so I asked Santa to bring me a T-Mobile Pocket PC for Christmas. After having it for a few weeks, I thought I would go ahead and review it.

Pros: A TOTAL computer in my pocket.
Cons: Phone crashes (from time to time).
Summary: I recently dropped my Handspring Visor PDA, which was coupled with a VisaPhone accessory. My screen was cracked and I fretted not. I thought "Hey, I can just run to any store that carried Handspring Visors, buy one, insert my BackUp Module and be ready ... read more

Pros: Does virtually everything. Takes SD and MMC expansion memory cards.
Cons: Standard phone headsets don't mute device's mic, no SSL email, text msgs cost add'l.
Summary: Nowadays, I leave the house with only my keys, a debit card, and my TMobile Pocket PC Phone.

Pros: One device to carry, good features, well-integrated phone and PDA features.
Cons: Expensive, crashes occasionally.
Summary: When my contract expired with AT&T Wireless in August I lost a lot of the “free” features that were included with my service. It was time to go shopping for service.
Now, to me the choice of phone is pretty important when I look for ... read more

Pros: It was pretty good while it worked.

Pros: Nice screen
Cons: Everything else possible
Summary: This is quite possibly the worst electronic device I have ever owned in terms of functionality and reliability. I have had TMobile service with the Pocket PC for 8 months and TMobile has had to replace my phone twice. The problems continue: frozen scree
