 "Computex 2010 - Microsoft Mobiles")
XpPhone A rather interesting find at the Microsoft booth was this little gem called the XpPhone that was pretty much like the the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 on Steroids., literally, at least in terms of bulk. It’s huge and not really something that would one consider a viable option considering mobile handsets with slide out QWERTY’s are all over the place, and netbooks have considerably reducedblet PC in size in weight making those a better option. let’s not forget those up coming tablets that will feature GSM Sim slots for more than just internet access. So why then? I asked, they didn’t have a definitive answer. But this is not something we’re going to see in India though. It’s a 3G device with built-in GPS. The large keypad is not too hard to use and the small but user friendly touch-pad. The funny thing, considering the size, it’s not all that heavy.
