The Completely Underwhelming PDA2
Posted by Jason Dunn in "ARTICLE" @ 03:00 PM
Inside the Pocket PC Dubai forums, there's a discussion thread with some pictures of a new device that's a lot like an old device. I was initially confused because I was seeing photos of what I thought was the iMate2. Well, that's more or less what it is, just with WiFi added. Now iMate's twisted branding strategy is starting to make sense - the PDA2K is a PDA2 with a keyboard - that's what the "K" stands for. The PDA2 is very similar in looks, identical in specs, but it lacks the keyboard. And here I thought that all along the PDA2K was some sort of weak "Millennium" naming strategy. At any rate, if you want to see some photos and screenshots of the PDA2, check out the link above. And if you were a huge fan of the iMate2 (XDA2) but wished it had WiFi, the PDA2 might be the right device for you. Is anyone looking forward to this device, or is it as underwhelming as I think it is?
