CNET Reviews the Mio A701
Posted by Darius Wey in "ARTICLE" @ 09:00 PM
"The Mio A701 is slightly taller than the average small-format connected Pocket PC thanks to its built-in GPS receiver, whose antenna is located above the screen. It's also thicker than many similar devices, such as the i-mate JAMin and Orange SPV M600. Although these differences are small (the A701 measures 59mm by 117mm by 22mm and weighs 150g), they do mean that the Mio A701 feels a little large both for the pocket and when held to the ear to make voice calls."
CNET has just reviewed the Mio A701 GPS-enabled Pocket PC Phone Edition. With its good looks and ease of use, they seemed rather happy with the device, though they did lament over a few shortcomings - namely, the lack of Wi-Fi and infrared, a short battery life, and some postcode issues. Do any of you own the A701? If so, what do you think of it?
