Rumor: future i-mate phone revealed
September 30, 2006 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.
i-mate must try hard to survive, now that HTC has dumped it, so here come one of phones that will be sold by i-mate in the future:
Specifications of this Pocket PC phone:
- AKU3
- BT
- Wi-Fi
- TI CPU
- Mini-SD
- Two displays
- And more
Conclusion: while first devices from i-mate - like i-mate JAQ - may seem not to be too attractive to express it mildly, clearly i-mate may be the answer to problem that many Asian manufacturers have: they design and can manufacture nice Windows Mobile phones but they need somebody to sell it in USA and Europe! During our numerous visits to trade shows and conference we have met several Asian manufacturers - mainly from China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Korea, that were showing off some interesting Windows Mobile powered phones, but when asked when given phone will come to USA or Europe, they were answering "we are searching for somebody who would be interested to order this phone! this is prototype". Now it looks like i-mate may be this "somebody".
