HTC Universal or HTC TyTN Pocket pc?!?!?!?

[Guest cristaras]

Hi guys!

I'm about to become a new member of the PPC community but still don't know what to buy! :D

I was about to get the new Sony Ericsson P990i when i found about HTC Universal or Qtek 9000 as they call it here (I was totaly lost with all the different names until I found this: url=http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_pocketpc_smartphone.php3 ).

Being almost ready to buy it, I came through the new HTC TyTN Pocket PC and now I'm TOTALY lost!!!!

I don't know what to do!?!?!? :D :D :D

Money isn't a problem, as I can get them from a relative really cheap, but which one is the best? I was a bit concerned about the size of Universal, but still....i don't know! Is it so big? I haven't seen it anywhere except on the net. But again if you can do exactly the same things with the TyTN Pocket PC (which is few cm smaller, 120g lighter as well as a year younger) why should i buy that one instead of the TyTN Pocket PC?

OUF.....HELP...PLEASE :D

The main advantage of the Universal is the VGA screen versus the Tytn QVGA, but personally I prefer the size and form of the Tytn. The universal is due to be updated - see news section on this forum!
