Review: T-Mobile Wing

Computer World has a review of the T-Mobile Wing. Excerpts:

For $300 (USD), the T-Mobile Wing is a reasonable value, given the phone's versatile functionality, stellar call quality and excellent battery life. My greatest concerns about the phone involve its limited onboard storage and its poorly constructed buttons. In the longer term, I'd worry about the integrity of that slider mechanism. But those concerns aside, the Wing makes a great package, especially if you value the easy input that a touch screen affords, together with the computing flexibility of Windows Mobile.

The slider's a concern because it's a 2-year plan, by the way. You can navigate through the device using your fingers or a stylus, so at least it gives you options. Regarding the memory comments, it has "64MB of RAM and 128MB of read-only memory. According to T-Mobile, the phone by default comes with 26MB of free memory and 16MB of available program storage". A MicroSD card slot lets you expand things a bit if you can spare the extra cash. Judging from the review, it looks like a solid device with a lot of different functions. Aside from the slide-out keyboard, there's nothing too special about it, so if you're looking for a bit of flair, this might not be the phone for you.
