It reminds me of the Samsung Q […]

Hands on with the ASUS P525

I’ve been playing with ASUS’ new Windows Mobile 5 device for about a week and I think I’ve finally gotten past the learning curve. It’s been a while since I last used the Windows Mobile platform. Familiarity breeds contempt they say.
The new Windows Mobile 5 platform isn’t much of a killer OS for phones. With […]

HP iPAQ RW6828 Atom

So this is it ladies and gents. The iPAQ formerly known as the Atom is now the iPAQ RW6828. Here’s a shot of the unit seen in the wild. What’s lovely about it is that unlike the iPAQs of old, this one’s surface doesn’t seem to be made of stuff that gets oily to the […]

HTC Dopod hands-on

Carlo from The Unwired dropped by my office (again) showing off his latest expensive toy, the HTC Dopod. After my initial impressions that the Dopod would be the “end-it-all” device for the mobile warrior, I changed my mind after spending an hour playing with it.
