Smartphone Versus Pocket PC Phone Edition—
What’s The Difference?
For years, Microsoft has also offered Pocket PC technology. These are hand-held
personal digital assistant devices (PDAs), some of which now utilize the Windows
Mobile software and have built-in phone and wireless data functionality. These devices
are also extremely powerful and are categorized as Pocket PC Phone Editions.
The biggest difference between Pocket PC Phone Edition devices andWindows
Mobile Smartphones is that the Pocket PCs typically have larger screens (with
touch screen capabilities), and in some cases, feature some type of small, built-in
keyboard.
Pocket PC Phone Edition devices are designed primarily for two-handed
operation. Otherwise, much of the functionality is the same. The Pocket PC Phone
Editions are also similar to the Palm-OS based Smartphones, like the popular
Treo 600 (which also requires two hands to fully utilize).
