y would you want to settle "sufficient" when you can settle the "best"? sony x1 with 800x480 is better! seeing more data on-screen and scrolling less is always better!

P5xx from ASUS is middle-end device, so don't expect some stunning spec. This device is triband edge and one band 3g, so it is asia only.

What's the use of that extra megahertz if it can't even handle VGA videorecording at 30fps? It's just a single processor while other ARM CPUs have additional hardware for communications and multimedia.

Asus new interface 'Glide touch' screen shot:



Nb. nice to see other manufacturers follow HTC's lead by providing nicer Ui's. Just wish Ms would put in the same amount of effort so that these interfaces would be OS wide rather than just on the surface.
