The O2 XDA Zinc is the next in the series of O2 XDA Smartphones which are starting to make a name for themselves in the smartphone market. Sleek, easy to use with an impressive polished finish, the handset looks the part and holds a vast array of the latest services required for a life on the move.

The O2 XDA Zinc combines a traditional Mobile Phone offering with the latest PDA technology, and is sure to attract users from the business and personal use markets. Considering that the O2 XDA Zinc offers a PDA service, the dimensions of 110 mm x 59 mm x 21 mm, and total weight of 170 grams are fairly impressive. The battery power and standby statistics are not yet available, but will be released on launch (first quarter 2007). The mobile contains a standard PC QWERTY keyboard, which is hidden behind the front screen, and is accessed with an impressive horizontal slider system.

The phone itself is dominated by the front display screen which is 2.8 inches in diameter, offering 240 x 320 pixel resolution, and up to 65,000 colour combinations. The touch sensitive screen is very useful for the more traditional phone functions, used in conjunction with the basic keys situated on the front of the handset. The O2 XDA Zinc covers the latest of network formats including Tri-band (GSM900, GSM 1800 and GSM 1900), together with the latest roam capability, UMTS.

The phone has a CMOS digital camera, which as well as offering the traditional still picture and video clips software, supports the ever popular video conferencing facility. It also offers the full range of messaging facilities, such as SMS, MMS, Picture messaging, Instant Messaging and email (supported WAP internet access). The array of connectivity options is just as impressive including, 3G, Bluetooth, WLAN, GPRS, EDGE, Infra Red and USB cable connector.

The above facilities of the O2 XDA Zinc are complimented by the PDA options including extended phonebook, calendar, calculator, clock, alarm clock, task manager and notes system to name but a few. While the model is a little larger than your standard mobile phone, the O2 XDA Zinc smartphone really does offer a great system for the business person on the move, a system which is fully compatible with today’s PC systems, with the connectivity options to allow instant data transfer.

In an ever more crowded smartphone market, the O2 XDA range has created a presence already and is proving very popular.

Samsung Ace Smartphone (Sprint/Nextel)

Okay, let’s make one thing clear before we start out: Apple’s iPhone is the handset of the moment — maybe even the next few moments. While this isn’t exactly news to anyone, it may come as a surprise (to even the most pretentious gadget hound) that there is a healthy second-tier of business-savvy PDA/phone combos hitting the market right before the iPhone celebrates its first birthday.

Leading this charge is the Samsung Ace, the CDMA counterpart of the GSM equipped BlackJack II. There are times when the Ace is a legitimate competitor to the iPhone and then there are times when the handset simply gets stuffed short of the goal line.

On the plus side it’s cheap: With rebates and all, you can scoop up an Ace for a thrifty $200. And as a phone, it’s more than competent: Call quality was clear, and the ergonomics were much improved over the original hard-to-hold BlackJack. Confession time: I am a sports junkie. Like a Sid Vicious of statistics. When using the original BlackJack, I noticed pronounced hand cramping after two weeks of solid Internet use. With the Ace I didn’t feel so much as an ache — even after a fortnight’s worth of frantically scoping scores.

While the Ace feels just right physically, metaphysically it feels like much of the same. There’s nothing about that handset that is a far-and-away improvement over the BlackJack series. A Palm or Mac OS is far superior to the bloated Windows Mobile 6 the Ace insists on using. Worse yet, there’s a conspicuous lack of features on this device found in similar handsets. Where are my touchscreens, my gigabyte-juiced internal memory, my Mac compatibility, and my greater multimedia options and features? Come on Samsung, we know you’re trying to offer a smartphone for less, but the competition out there is fierce. —Erik Malinowski

WIRED: Fast EV-DO service. Smooth Sprint TV integration and user interface. Improved phone ergonomics make longer calls tolerable. Low price point ($200, with rebates) among greater smartphone market. 1.3-megapixel camera good for sharp pics. microSD slot supports up to 2 GB of external memory.

TIRED: No Mac compatibility. Maneuvering right-hand thumb wheel can be cumbersome for constant web users (and natural southpaws). No touchscreen. Tiny QWERTY keyboard causes frequent misspellings and overall slowdown in productivity.

Price/maker: $200 (with two-year contract

Remember last week when I told you what a disaster it would be if Deutsche Telecom was to purchase Sprint as there are just so many wireless technologies to support? Well, I think I may have just found the phone which works with *almost* all of the technologies these two wireless carriers currently provide.

The Gigabyte GSmart MS808 supports HSDPA, WCDMA 2100, EDGE, GSM850/900/1800/1900, and GPRS. Don't forget GPS, TV and radio. It is a Windows Mobile-based device and has a screen size of 2.8 inches.

When not being used as a phone, prolonged storage of this gadget in your pants pocket can induce sterility for those customers who are looking for true convergence.
