Other features such as and FM radio and Windows Media player are also included on both models.
The GPS Phone 600 includes an integrated GPS antenna with Ostia navigation software, and pre-loaded maps of the U.S. and Canada. This model can be purchased from T-Mobile outlets for $500 with a new two-year voice and data contract
The GPS Phone 600e -- which does not have the GPS software and included car kit of its sister model -- is $400 with a two-year plan.
