i-mate JAQ... messaging PPC


This is something a bit more interesting also from i-mate.
--
It's called the i-mate JAQ, this one has Windows Mobile 5 PocketPC Phone Edition.
--
It looks a bit ugly but it is the form factor I was hoping for as it has landscape display and a full QWERTY keyboard with no moving parts. I'd get this in a heartbeat if it had 3G or 3.5G and a more robust processor.
--
Some specs:
TI OMAP 850 200mhz [yikes! it's the same as the Wizard's might be a bit underpowered for a PPC PE]
64Mb RAM/128Mb ROM
Quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE [world phone but no 3G or 3.5G]
Bluetooth 1.2 [not sure about A2DP]
Landscape Touchscreen qVGA display
QWERTY keyboard
miniUSB [11 pins unsure if this is the same with my current device]
miniSD Expansion
no WiFi [not a big deal if it had 3 or 3.5G but it doesn't!]
no Camera [not a big deal]

--
All in all this could have been a great PPC PE if it had a faster processor and highspeed data. Pity that it falls short in these departments. Also i-mate should really re-think their naming and branding system it doesn't sound and look too professional.
