T-Mobile MDA IV
The T-Mobile MDA IV is simply the most
advanced handset we have ever seen, combining
powerful features that you'd normally find
in a laptop and squeezing them into a PDA-style
device that you can carry around easily.
It's quite an amazing handset with a
huge number of cool features. Firstly, there's
the screen - the highest resolution screen
we know of at 640x480 pixels (VGA resolution),
and a good sized QWERTY keyboard. The screen
on the MDA IV swivels round so that you
can use the handset more like a traditional
PDA if you like.

And the MDA IV is incredibly well-connected.
As well as tri-band GSM and GPRS, this is
a 3G phone supporting high speed access
to the Internet and multimedia services,
plus it has wireless ethernet so that you
can use it in a suitable hotspot, at home
or in the office (if you have a wireless
network). You can connect the T-Mobile MDA
IV to a PC or accessory using Bluetooth
or a USB cable.
The MDA IV is more than an impressive
bit of hardware though, it comes with the
powerful, familiar and easy-to-use Windows
Mobile operating system, along with Pocket
versions of Outlook, Internet Explorer,
Word and Excel to allow you to email people,
track your appointments, surf the web and
do some serious work. In addition, you can
review PowerPoint files and Adobe Acrobat
documents. There's a wide range of additional
sofyware available for this platform, and
you can store data on the MDA IV's removable
memory cards.
There are twin cameras on the MDA IV,
allowing for video calling, stills photography
and video capture. In addition, the MDA
IV supports a very wide range of file types
for great multimedia playback.
Due out in in the summer of 2005. Please
