However today, in a surprise move, it appears the device has actually been launched in China. Still featuring Windows Mobile 5 and built-in GPS, the device is differentiated from its other QWERTY brethren by having a full QVGA screen above its always exposed thumb keyboard...The device will be on sale for a pricy 6500 yuan (around $825) but BenQ is not ruling out a GPS-free version for less." Well, I guess I was wrong - the P51 is appearing in the Far East. Still, I doubt we'll see it in the Western Hemisphere anytime soon. In addition to Surur's summary, you can see the original (poorly translated) page here.

bnycastro Sage Join Date: Jun 2005 Posts: 621		My aunt owns a P50 and I was looking for updates for her device. There were 0 updates for the device [I find this odd because all the PPCs I've owned usually get atleast one update or patch or anything from the manufacturer]. I wouldn't say the P50 is buggy but it's not perfect either. My aunt experiences lock ups and some other minor issues that I'm sure an update would've solved. -- If I can't get support, I won't support it. __________________ bnycastro: blog\|twitter\|plurk
