Not so long ago we ran a review of T-Mobile's MDA Compact III (you can read it here). It was the first connected Pocket PC from any UK network operator to carry a built-in GPS antenna, and is optionally available with the CoPilot navigation software from ALK.
Well, T-Mobile has been trumped by O2, whose latest addition to the XDA range, the Orbit, also has a built in GPS antenna and comes with CoPilot. The trumping doesn't come from being second, but from the fact that O2 has seen fit to include Wi-Fi where T-Mobile does not.
This is the major specifications difference between the two devices, which are made by newly established source of Windows Mobile Pocket PCs and Smartphones, HTC, the company that has been building hand-helds for other companies for some years.
While their physical designs are different, both the MDA and XDA are small and pocket-friendly, with the XDA Orbit weighing 129g and measuring 108mm tall, 58mm wide and 16.8mm thick.
