Posted by Darius Wey in "HARDWARE" @ 06:00 AM
"E-TEN Information Systems has announced that its business/travel focused Pocket PC Phone, the G500 with built-in GPS, will get a hardware refresh early next month. The upgraded product, which will be called the G500+, will feature increased 256MB flash memory and new FM radio functions, and will include support for Direct Push technology along with enhancements to boost the performance of GPS communications."

The lack of Wi-Fi and EDGE/3G support aside, there's not a lot wrong with the G500+. Like its sibling, the M600+, the G500+ features a fast Samsung 400MHz CPU, 64MB RAM, 256MB ROM, quad-band GSM/GPRS support, Bluetooth 2.0, and Windows Mobile 5.0 with the MSFP. It also includes updated FM radio and GPS functionality to help you go the extra mile.
