Default Best Windows Mobile Smartphone?

Hi All,

Since standing on my HTC S620 this morning I'm now in the market for a new smartphone. Only musts are that it's Windows Mobile powered, supports push e-mail, and has a qwerty keyboard.

What are people using right now?

Cheers

David

I've looked recently, and for me, it was between:

HTC TyTN II - but I discounted it as too bulky / heavy - though is an absolute beast of a machine...

Samsung SGH-i600 (BlackJack) - pocket sized and smaller, lighter

Also interested if anyone else has options for business smartphones that'll slip in the pocket. Currently I'm heading for a Samsung Blackjack... (though slightly annoyed that I can't find the new Blackjack 2 for sale anywhere in the UK!)

Hey mate

I am currently Using a S730 HTC that I love, I also got a Glofiish x500+ for my GPS with TomTom... but the battery sucks and its a bit block'y but the screen is fantastic.

Been told the HTC touch is about the best thing you can get atm...

A guy in my office wets his pants over his Palm Treo 680 and can't live without it.

And I dont really like them but I think a few of the blackberrys are well worth a look... assuming you have the accoutns to support one.. not sure but their might a windows mobile supported one... if not the blackberry os isnt that bad but tariffs can be expensive vs windows mobile.

I think what laptop mag has loads on these....

I'm using a touch at the moment. Couldn't face a crackberry. Boss has the tytnII which he raves about, though its pretty chunky.

Mate has just got the new O2 XDA Orbit 2 Phone (which is a HTC Touch Cruise).

Brilliant phone. Makes my N95 8GB look ancient and clumsy.

Although I'll stick with the Nokia as I like an actual keypad (do a lot of texting)

But the new Orbit seems to work flawlessly. Fantastic interface and screen. GPS is a little weak though.
