Default PDA style mobile's

I was think of getting a PDA style mobile that can intergrate properly with outlook (windows) and hopefully with a gps reciever and some capacity for proper storage for music (2gb +)

The storage can be in the form of an expandable card, SD would be great but mini SD seems to be popular.

I was looking at something running windows mobile, is it any good?

A decent camera would be a bonus as well.

Any ideas, cheers

I can go down the contract route but tops of £35 a months, would like it to be less.

Got an XDA Orbit myself, have had a few XDA's now, so you can tell I like 'em

In fact, I still have my XDA Mini S with a couple of extras incl a memory card if you're interested? PM me for more info...

HTC P3300 here (original version of one of those XDAs, can't be arsed to find which one). WM5 with promised official upgrade to WM6, great GPS chip + antenna (SIRFstar III), 2mp cam that sucks (looks like you're shooting through a glass - wait, you are). Oh, great battery life if you use it as a phone.

HTH.

I bought something called a Lobster the other week from the virgin website for £39.99 on payg, its windows mobile, its got camera, qvga, dab radio, TV etc. Virgin even gave me the unlock code for free. It runs tomtom just fine as well - which is all I bought it for really.
Its £49.99 on the website, but there is a discount code floating around..

Have a look at www.modaco.com or www.coolsmartphone.com

They are websites dedicated to the Windows Mobile phones and PDA's. (which the O2 XDA things are)

The XDA mini S is a nice mobile PDA though it has been replaced by a better model now, it has a rather naff camera. The miniSD slot takes a max of 2 GB cards, and I got mine from here SVP.

This is a good tip. I've had smartphones now for about 5 years? Started off with the C500 when it first came out and I've never looked back.

I won't go back to those normal (Symbian?!?) phones. I'm not sure but I could be responsible for Saxo getting into them too, I got a couple guys there interested in them.

I have an Orange M700, although these are called different things depending on what network you are with they are actually made by HDC?

The guys oon the forum above will help you out no end. I've not been on there for ages

It's HTC, and not all normal phones are Symbian... they wished, though!
