Mozongo Review the i-mate JAM
Posted by Jonathon Watkins in "HARDWARE" @ 11:00 PM
" How is the device as a phone? It is great, but not excellent. Let me explain. Let us say a perfect phone would have a rating of 10. The JAM would lose 1 point for not having a dedicated number pad. As I said previously this is not a huge hang-up, but an annoyance nonetheless – leaving the phone at a 9, a great score. The phone loses no points for size or style, because it excels at both. Of course not functionality, because it has the Pocket PC factor built-in."
Mozongo have reviewed the i-mate JAM and their personal look is definitely worth checking out if you are interested in the device. There's also a photo gallery with comparison shots so you can see once again just how small this device is. The final conclusion is that the reviewer rather likes it and can see himself using it daily. I was amused to read that the reviewer managed to launch the start menu when his ear touched the screen during a call. Ah, the mixed joy of a touchscreen on a phone. How do you guys with phones embedded in your PPCs handle this kind of thing? Do you hook up a Bluetooth or wired headpiece or are you just very careful with the screen while making a call?
