MDA Compact IV. Sort of exclusive to T-Mobile, running Windows Mobile 6.1 – and out before 3G iPhone?
The MDA Compact IV is only “sort of” exclusive to T-Mobile, as the Compact IV is a rebadged version of the HTC Diamond 3G touchy phone. Which is coming out on Orange this June. Confused? Yes. The hot weather’s not helping, either.
The big features of the MDA Compact are its HSDPA technology for fast browsing and use as a modem, Windows Mobile 6.1 for doing BUSINESS, 4GB of internal storage, a 3.1megapixel camera plus, as is most fashionable these days, a touchable screen. Here’s a big photo of it, as it’s clearly quite a very special phone if there’s been such a flurry of licensing and rebranding surrounding it:
The fully 3G MDA Compact IV will be on sale through…
UK mobile broadband speed averages 1.46Mbps, but ads claim more

Opinion: Mobile phone deals aren't call for cash
They’ve always said you don’t get anything for free in this life, but flick towards the back of any of the tabloid newspapers in this country and you’d have to question that view.
FREE Xbox 360, FREE iPod, FREE laptop, FREE Wii, FREE PSP, FREE HDTV, FREE money – and all you have to do is sign up for a FREE mobile phone. In fact, some of the deals even give you a FREE handset with your FREE handset. Please, tell me, where do I sign…
T-Mobile promotes Web'n'Walk mobile internet… SAS-style!
I don’t know about you, but when I think about the mobile internet, the first thing that comes to mind is ex-SAS blokes abseiling down buildings. Kind of. Oh, alright, it isn’t – but that hasn’t stopped T-Mobile from getting hardnut author Chris Ryan to promote its Web’n’Walk service with a four-city ‘urban survival challenge’.
