Two Audiovox PPC-6601 reviews
A couple of reviews have trickled out of the Audiovox PPC-6601, Sprint's new Pocket PC Phone which is more or less a CDMA version of the
XDA III/MDA III. It's got the same slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 128MB of memory, a 400MHz processor, Bluetooth, and an SDIO expansion card slot, with the main difference being that the PPC-6601 doesn't have the built-in 802.11b WiFi that you'll find on the XDA III (which also seems to be the primary complain in the reviews). Neither review mentions that whoever actually built the PPC-6601 (it sure wasn't Audiovox!), could have taken advantage of Windows Mobile's new support for switching between portrait and landscape screen orientations and had the keyboard slide down horizontally (sort of like the OQO), which would have made it possible to make the keyboard a lot larger. Someone'll figure this one out sooner or later (we hope).
