MobileTechReview Reviews the i-mate JAQ3
"So you love the Samsung BlackJack and the T-Mobile Dash MS Smartphones but prefer the Pocket PC version of Windows Mobile with its touch screen and MS Office suite. I-mate hopes that their JAQ3 will win you over in a heartbeat. Yes, the JAQ3 is almost a dead ringer for the BlackJack, but on a much grander scale. The JAQ3 is a big, though not inelegant beast that looks best photographed by itself. Add in some smaller friends and you'll realize that technology isn't yet up to squeezing all the features of a Pocket PC into a smartphone's casing. The JAQ3 just has to be bigger."
The folks at MTR have just reviewed i-mate's JAQ3, and according to them, it's so-so. The CPU, small screen size, and mediocre wireless performance collectively take off a couple of stars, though to i-mate's credit, the JAQ3 has a great form factor and high-quality display, so it's not a complete flop. Still think you might be interested in it? Head over to MTR and read the review.

They nailed it... If only the DASH had PPC PE in it... It would be a no brainer...

Too much plastic, not enough screen.
