A post at PhoneMag.com says the MWg Zinc II gets reviewed, but all I see are 4 paragraphs of text and one picture.
Anyway, the Zinc II looks like a promising device.
The MWg Zinc II is an attractive new phone, featuring Windows Mobile 6.1. The solid feature set includes a 500MHz CPU, courtesy of Samsung, a slide out keyboard, and the obligatory touch screen. The improvements, especially considering many new smartphones are still lumbered with 200-300MHz processors, should add up to a very speedy phone.
The commentary also attributes much of the speed increase to Windows Mobile 6.1, but I imagine the fast 500Mhz CPU might have more to do with that than the operating system.
