Many pictures in English are present and a lot a comparative photos between the G500 and other Windows Mobile handhelds (Qtek S200 / E-Ten M600 / XDA Atom).

E-Ten G500 has the same processor than the E-ten M600 and a better graphical chip. It includes Windows Mobile 5 OS without MSFP update but we already can use stereo Bluetooth headset.

GPS receiver is quite good but the TMC adaptor is not usable in Destinator PN 5 and Navigon 5 GPS software.

E-Ten G500 is already sold in France (600 Euros).

Some other interesting highlights from the review:

* mini-SD card slot (good that there are mini-SD card with Wi-Fi out there - this phone has built-in Bluetooth but no Wi-Fi)
* built-in GPS receiver of latest generation (i.e. SiRF III - unlike HP iPAQ phones that use older GPS chipset)
* built-in TMC receiver - so that information about traffic is being received and thus software can dynamically route users around traffic jams - however there seem to be some problems with TMC usage yet (according to the review)

So, what does that mean?

Don't you speak arab? What language do you speak? English (I noticed ) and ...

Its actually "Maafi Mushquil" and it means "No problem"

I can read and write Arabic (thanks to school), but can't speak the language. Steve on the other hand is British (correct me if i am wrong) and is still working on his ABC's
