Dear O2 Rep.
I seriously think, it is unfair to rate Orbit 2 higher then HTC Touch Cruise. Could you please enlighten me with some "advantages" Orbit 2 over touch Cruise.
I think this is simply brand bias.
Why should we pay more for O2 if we can get the exact function for a HTC????
Furthermore O2 OEM from HTC!!!!

I previously own O2 orbit quit for some time.It was the best PDA phone I ever had.(I have used Imate JAM, O2 Atom, etc.)When I have serviced my ORBIT since some problem with Keys, the radiation afterwards was high and could not use that phone. Now I am waiting for orbit II and want to know the advanced features over the orbit. Can I get useful tips?

O2 Sales Exec - Thanks for the clarification.
I was given a 4th Feb date by o2 online. Is this accurate?
I know the phone has the new Co Pilot 7 on board.

Let me clarify a few things.
Firstly, uses co-pilot, not tom-tom.
Secondly, handset is free on £35 tariffs and above.
Thirdly, to get free co-pilots must be on £40 tariffs or above. Below £40 tariffs co-pilots cost £100.
Fourthly, other than that it's just an orbit with the new version of windows mobile six.
Fifthly, the most comprehensive and easy to use and reliable smart phone from the united kingdoms best network provider.
ALSO.. Available in some stores as early as January 28th, so check local stores.
ALSO ALSO.. Kicks the arse of the N95 GPS which uses unreliable, unestablished and undeveloped software and is also not as user-friendly.

I cannot compare this pda with HTC TOUCH. Although it has very good specifications like all other O2 it fails. Very good battery but extremly short life.
O2 PDAs have the same problem...

It's coming out on the 22nd I think the woman said. The plan sounds quite cheap on a £35 a month tariff. I think it'll cost me 60 quid to upgrade. Not bad at all.
Still need to know if it has tom tom on board tho. Anyone?

Anybody know about the GPS on these? I'm weighing up this and the Nokia n95 8gb, and I know I can download new maps for countries I go to with the latter. Is there any sort of option to do the same with the Orbit 2?
It's tom tom software yeah?
Thanks

The o2 website does indeed state that the maximum capacity is 2GB. However, the in-store magazine that o2 produce states that it can handle up to 32GB which must mean that it complies with the SD 2.0 standard as per the HTC TC.

this is not a slide phone and does not have a keyboard, it is the HTC touch cruise which is being released on the o2 network, only difference is the shell.
it has windows mobile 6 and a touch flo finger navigation system as well as a stylus. it is due for release in the UK later this month and wont be cheap.
the only confusing thing is the micro SD slot. on the O2 website it says maximum of 2GB support, whereas other site reveal that it support sd 2.0, which is the same as SDHC so it should support atleast 4GB if not more, anyone have any info? thanks
