Orange SPV M700

In January we reviewed the <a title="Review: HTC P3600" href="http://reviews.zdnet.co.uk/hardware/handhelds/0,1000000735,39285465,00.htm">HTC P3600</a>, a strong contender as a Windows Mobile Pocket PC/phone thanks to its good build and wide range of features. As we predicted in that review, this device has been taken up by a network operator: Orange has rebadged it as the SPV M700, and brought it to market at a considerably lower unit price than HTC can manage. Indeed, the M700 is free on some <a href="http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/yourplan/online">contract options</a>. Orange has also enabled a very useful feature that HTC had inexplicably disabled: the GPS receiver.
