Shiny Shiny.tv: Tytn HTC Pocket PC Review

The HTC TyTN 3G Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 based Pocket PC phone receives a favorable review over at Shiny Shiny.tv. 'The design of the Tytn is much like you would see on the T-Mobile Sidekick (guess who made that?). It feels solid but not heavy, and the keyboard slide is smooth, with a reassuring click when it's in place. The screen automatically switches from portrait to landscape on that magic 'click' and there are soft buttons in both views which make it easy to access key functions,if you don't fancy getting out the stylus for the touchscreen.

As far as other controls are concerned, the Blackberry-esque scroll wheel on the side make it possible to do some things with one hand, although generally you'll find yourself using two. There are also a number of shortcut keys including voice dial, video call (when will manufacturers accept that we Just Don't Do It?), the communication manager and a Start menu.'

Highlights:
• High speed internet with worldwide 3G
• Full connectivity with Tri-Band UMTS, Quad-Band EDGE, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
• Instant access to email
• Sliding keyboard for easy typing
• Secondary camera for video telephony
• Synchronised music and pictures for easy playback and management
