The O2 Xda Stealth phone is simple on the outside and complex in the inside, it's also a new cellphone that only Cnet had the chance to get a sneak preview. It features a sliding system to make it compact and protect the inside keys which is unusual in this type of smartphones, the dimensions -110 x 53 x 22.5 mm - and weight – 140 grams – are respectable specifications. A light, slim and groovy device doesn't come everyday, or does it?

On a more technical level, it has some of the latest technology like using the Windows Mobile 5.0 Operative System that can make use of normal Windows programs such as Outlook, Excel, Word and PowerPoint. For multimedia performance there is a pre-installed Windows Media Player 10 software that will manage the videos that can be recorded with the 2.0megapixel camera, to watch the videos there is a 2.4-inch display supporting a 320x240 resolution Of course that the usual audio formats like MP3,WMA,WAV and MIDI can be used for ring tones. In the connectivity section there is space for almost everything, including 802.11b, 802.11g, Bluetooth 1.2 and USB1.1 for synchronisation. I think that the 64MB of RAM memory and 192MB of flash ROM are more than enough, but for the most demanding people there is an expansion option by using a miniSD card.

In order to type and insert other types of data, you can make use of the keypad or the stylus/touchscreen which is a good thing, unless you need to type an essay with 10 pages and 24392 words. This Stealth version doesn't support 3G (it's a pity) but there is tri-band variety with GMS900/1800/1900.
