Anyone got an idea where SII might’ve looked to get “design inspiration” for their DB-J990 electronic dictionary? No? Well, I’m sure the Sony VGN-UX50 is blushing right about now. But aside from flattery through imitation, does the J990 hold up? To be fair it’s not just a dictionary; it also has the Mobipocket eBook reader, [...]
Is there a market for the cellular-free PDA? I imagine that’s the question the bods at HP’s iPaq department are quietly asking themselves; they’ve gone from being kings of the hill (where the hill is the portable computer market) to marginalised and slightly archaic through the combined assault of purpose-specific DAPs such as the iPod and [...]
Although I’ve got a PDA lying around the house somewhere, I never considered using it as a full desktop-replacement. Thankfully there are people with more imagination than I have out there, for instance Axim Site forum member afarre, who has crafted this insanely clever port-replicator jacket for his handheld. What started off as a $45 [...]
I’ve used Sharp Zaurus a few years back, a great Linux based PDA. I absolutely love it as it give me the freedom to tinker with its OS (a lot! and how bad I messed it up sometimes). Now Sharp is releasing Sharp RD-CMP2000R, a Linux based mini PC. It looks like RD-CMP2000R is Zaurus [...]
Right, I was almost happy with my lot in life but now that I’ve seen that Judie over at Gear Diary has got her mitts on a Dopod Hermes I’m miserable and bitter again. She’s posted some photos already; now we’re expecting the full, sexy review, girl!
p.s. New site looking great, Judie - good luck [...]
Yawn. Yawn. I didn’t even realize that the iPAQ line of product was still alive. Apparently, it is because HP just announced the rx5915 travel companion. Other than the GPS SiRF star III and 2GB of flash memory, all the specs are pretty standard. Other specs include WiFi, 400 MHz Samsung processor, 3.5-inch QVGA touch [...]
The gilted Matthew Miller over at ZDNet has got his hands on a rather swanky HTC TyTN and is kind enough to write us jealous peons a review. Running Windows Mobile Phone Edition (the TyTN, that is, not Matthew) with a slide-out keyboard and 3G network support, it’s a business-oriented powerhouse squeezed into a compact chassis.
Rather [...]
Mucking around with a phone, PDA or GPS is dangerous while driving. If you’re going to use a device similar to the HTC Artemis, please be familiar with the device enough so that it doesn’t consume a lot of your time while operating your car. This PDA phone is HTC’s first handset with [...]
Day traders don’t get your hopes up just yet because the MC-700 is probably not going to be available state side. This PDA is designed and built for folks with the need to stay on top of stock tickers. The 3.5-inch touch screen LCD is optimized for displaying stock market information. It’s [...]
Video of LG PM800 PDA with DMB TV Tuner in action
It’s hard to make out which version of the Microsoft OS is on this LG PM800 but do we really care? Just take a look at the quality of the video output on this PDA.
