Throughout the night, I'll be posting some awesome hi-res photos of various devices; just click on the pictures for a large close-up. First up is the ASUS MyPal. We already linked to <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=13834">a review</a> of it, but wow! These pics make it look <i>thin!</i> And the yellow theme looks nice; I hope MS has bundled a larger variety of Blissful themes. ;)<br /><br /><a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/Parekh-20030623-Asus-A620.jpg"><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/Parekh-20030623-Asus-A620-Small.jpg" /></a><br /><!><br /><a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/Parekh-20030623-Asus-A620-2.jpg"><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/Parekh-20030623-Asus-A620-2-Small.jpg" /></a>

That is super sweet! :mrgreen:

I plan on staying up all night. These events have given me temporary insomnia 8)

Huh. It looks like the case is meant to have speakers on both sides, but they only but in one.

Still, a very svelte-looking PPC.

Where's the !$%#&y wi-fi?
What is the point of all these fancy gadgets if you can't surf the Internet at Starbucks with your $400 dollar monster?

Not to rain on anyone's June 23rd parade :D

Good point. Weird. Well, symmetry is one way to make something look nice... Very sleek.

If it's gotten a full metal body, it's mine, mine, MINE! [insert evil laughter here] :twisted:

Would love to know if it beats the iPaq h2210 in performance though... :werenotworthy:

If I can get my hands on one, I'll be able to tell you. :-D

Hey Janak, could you post some larger pictures? I'm having a hard time making out its molecular structure. :lol:

Would it help if they put some holes on the left section ? just to make a better symmetry ? :wink:

Since the news is coming out in 2003-second intervals (i.e., every 33 minutes), you could study in between. Study 32 minutes, read an article, lather, rinse, repeat.

As for me, I have no excuse. In fact, I could go in and read future posts if I wanted. But I won't do that, as that would be cheating. :lilangel:

And I have to be at work at 8 am tomorrow!

I assumed it was just for symmetry as well. It's about looks -- even the holes on the right side don't all seem to be over the speaker.

The yellowish Bliss theme looks cool :!: Anyone know where I can download that theme from :?: Maybe someone could buy that Asus Pocket PC, extract the theme and share it with fellow PPCT readers :mrgreen:

Jonathan, I did the EXACT same thing. I was thinking 640 x 480 or something sweet like that. Darn!!

Unless you changed the initial post, the wording was fine. You said:

I'll be posting some awesome hi-res photos of various devices [....]
That implies the photos are at a high-resolution, not that the devices are. Now, if you had said, "I'll be posting some awesome photos of various hi-res devices," or even "I'll be posting some awesome hi-res photos from various devices," that would be different. :-)

I know that the wording was good. ;) It was just the mention of "hi-res", which in retrospect triggers people's hopes too quickly. :lol:
