  • No 3G; no 3.5mm headset slot
  • E-TENs glofiish X500 is an accomplished Pocket PC with GPS antenna, Wi-Fi and FM radio among the standout features. It has good battery life and a range of software extras generous enough to make some other Pocket PC vendors blush ...

  • Quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE, Integrated WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and FM radio, Slim form factor, Blazing performance, Bright display.
  • No support for 3G, microSD slot lacks protection, Leather case is impractical, No bundled navigation software, Shipping ROMs 0273 and 0291 are riddled with bugs.
