Default Asus A716 Reviewed & Given Away by PocketMatrix

http://www.pocketmatrix.com/reviews/a716

PocketMatrix have just put up a decent review of the Asus A716, and I rather think they like it. 8) Specifications include:

"400MHz Intel XScale PXA255 Processor
3.5� Transflective TFT LCD Display (65k colors)
64mb Flash, 64mb SDRAM (53mb user accessible)
CF Type II & SD/MMC card slots
Bluetooth & 802.11b Wireless
1500mAH Lithium Rechargeable Battery (optional 3000mah battery available)
135mm x 78mm x 17.6mm (L x W x H), 197grams"



It�s got those two now traditional Asus strong points � performance and power: "I am sure all of you will be happy to hear that the A716 carries on Asus� legendary performance...But the most surprising and redeeming feature of this new PDA from Asus is its battery life. With more than 12 hours looping a movie, it more than makes up for its size. You will not find a better combination of performance, features and battery life on the market."

What�s more, they are giving away the review unit! Can�t say fairer than that, can you? :clap: To be entered in the contest you must be a registered member of the forums and you must post your answer to the following question here: "How would you best take advantage of all the features the A716 offers?"

All entries must be in by 11:59 PM Eastern time on February 23rd, and a winner will be selected in the following few days. The best answer to the question will win the device.

Considering the battery life and speed on that thing, I don't care if it's tie-dye coloured
