Review Summary |
The combination of HTC's Touch interface and a slew of connectivity options makes the Cruise viable for those who balked at the shortcomings of the Touch and Touch Dual. |
If the lack of Wi-Fi is not a big issue for you, the Touch Dual, with its great design and improved UI, is an excellent choice for both newcomers and experienced Windows Mobile users. |
Though not perfect, the i780 is an excellent choice for those who want the most features in a sub-S$1,000 PDA-phone. |
With more color choices and much better performance due to the increased RAM, the enhanced Touch is what the original should have been to begin with. |
It may not be a quantum leap compared with the 838 Pro, but the TyTN II maintains what power users loved in the previous iteration--with a few extras. |
