If you think you've seen Qool Labs' new devices before, you probably have. Both the QDA Lite and QDA Icon are based on the Lite-On Phoenix 2 and a TechFaithWireless prototype respectively. Both were on show at CommunicAsia in Singapore this week.
The QDA Lite features an Intel PXA270 520MHz processor, 64MB RAM, 128MB ROM, tri-band GSM/GPRS support, 802.11b Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.0, USB Host, a 2.0-megapixel camera, an SDIO/SD/MMC slot, a 2.8" QVGA (240 x 320) TFT-LCD, 1240mAh battery, and Windows Mobile 5.0. It measures 114mm x 58mm x 18.7mm, and weighs 149g.
The QDA Icon specs are a little less detailed. What is known is that it features GSM/GPRS connectivity, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, a 4.0-megapixel CCD camera with flash, a 2.4" QVGA (240 x 320) TFT-LCD, and Windows Mobile 5.0. The page at the TechFaithWireless web site provides additional specs (e.g., TI OMAP 200MHz processor, EDGE [optional], and an FM radio [optional], among others), though take it all with a grain of salt.
