Double the RAM and this would be my dream PDA. Many of the new devices coming out now cannot be upgraded by pocketPCTechs, so having more ram in it from the beginning would help a lot.

Also, I can see the "keypad" keys are in a different color, but I don't see them labeled with numbers at all...

I was also afraid of the 64M RAM (of which about 30M is usable) in both my x51v and HTC Wizard. When the actual WM5 implementation is (relatively) bug-free and stable (as is the case with, say, the A06 upgrade with the x51v) and you use not that memory-hungry apps (for example, Opera), you will be able to do a LOT even with 30M of available RAM. For example, I can keep open 10-12 Opera tabs and some other apps without running out of memory.

Of course, 128M RAM would be nice - to be able to run, for example, Cube with monsters or be able to make some serious work on large images. 64M RAM can be really lived with, though.

Isn't this device also a phone? If so, 2.4 inch screen seems to be becoming a standard size. That said, I too would wish for a bigger screen.

Well, I'd be glad to support their financial status, if they'd add:

GSM 850
128MB SDRAM
256MB Flash
UMTS that'd work on US system (Cingular)

thumb keyboard... 240x240 screen... WM5.0... 64MB RAM... no CF slot... gee, almost everything not to like in one device. Or I guess it's a super-duper phone, looked at from the other end of that telescope. I can see this being very popular among those who want that, but still, for a phone it's a bit of a tank. Really, really long.

I�m disappointed, I though they were going to make something way better than what this will offer. Its heavy, big, small screen, poor resolution & not quite enough RAM so basically for me its not worth the wait. :!:

Default Square Screen

I don't know if I like square screens, but integrated keyboard is cool.

Overwhelming from a smartphone viewpoint, awefully under underwhelming from a PPC viewpoint, I'm afraid :evil:.
