O2 XDA Orbit review
Posted February 21st, 2007 by Mihnea Boiangiu
The XDA Orbit is a Pocket PC. It is the first XDA model to come with built-in GPS and bundled navigation software. The smartphone is designed by O2 and it runs Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0. Its design is really impressive. The XDA Orbit is slim and stylish, but at the same time sophisticated. Like many others Pocket PCs, the Orbit has a big 2.8″ TFT LCD touchscreen. The O2 XDA Orbit is the best companion for business users, as it weights only 129g. That means quite well for a handheld with so many capabilities.

But lets talk about its performance. The Quad-band device supports GPRS. It has built-in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, which means you can search for hotspots to check your email. The Orbit comes with Outlook email client. Regarding the multimedia options, the device features MP3 player, FM tuner, 2 megapixel camera and Java applications. The excellent CoPilot software from ALK will enhance the GPS performances of Orbit Pocket PC. I need to mention the trackball, which is particularly good. The O2 XDA Orbit has 128 ROM memory and supports SD cards. The battery provides approximately 5 hours of talk time and up to 200 hours of standby time. The price depends on the monthly contract in O2 network.
