beautiful but expensive

I have had the possibility to try its characteristics to beginning year when we have furnished it to a client.

The first impression is that of a bulky product and of difficulty transport. This first impression is confirmed after the first hours of use. It is not an instrument that is lent to the transport in the small pocket of the jacket or in the tied up custody to the belt .

Commercialized both from the Qtek (with 9000 note it initials) that from her i-mate (with JASJAR it initials) it distinguishes him from the other devices of the same nature for the ample display TFT from 3,6" with a resolution from 640*480 pixels to over 65.000 colors. The keyboard to 62 keys allows an efficient control and above all the express use of the softwares from office avoiding the uncomfortable keyboard to screen to use with the pen (this last control can happen in alternative to the use of the first one).

Besides the classical functions from Pocket PC (it uses the operating system Mobile Windows 5 Phone Edition that among the other things has exploited really this base for the official presentation) it is possible to use the potentiality of the hardware as I phone cellular being using the protocols UMTS that those GSM/UMTS to signal however the complete absence of a support integrated GPRS (remediable exploiting even a connected external support through brings Bluetooth).

The surrender of the battery is discreet if the instrument is used as I phone cellular (from the 4 to the 8 hours of conversation in base to the selected connection) but it sensitively lowers if for elevated performances are asked you combine to the multimedia contents.

The integrated camera has a maximum resolution from 1.3 Megapixels and the surrender it is discreet.

The screen is versatile, it is possible to use it open as the classical notebooks or to refold it with the panel LCD turned toward the keyboard so that to protect it during the transport or opened upward still with the screen with the back to cover the keyboard so much to turn it into a classical usable PDA with the pen.

Inside the wrapping it is present a custody in imitation leather, a stereo earphone, the net feeder, the cable of synchronization with the PC USB and the software on CD.

In conclusion it is a product that doesn't pass of certain unnoticed, fast and ready to the most common connections (IrDA, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, USB, SDIO-MMC), elegant but at the same bulky time, efficient but few practical to be transported.

The price (around 600 £) then it will discourage from the purchase many potential buyers, but it is to hold in consideration that also uses him it holds well the market.
