palmOne Announces the Tungsten T5My last post was a month ago and that's how long the T5 "rumours" have been around .... Now, the cat is out of the bag.  Although it doesn't look at all like the picture I previously posted, This new T5 is very much welcomed ... The official release date is Nov 3, 2004. I month from today. Here's a rundown of the specs I got from BargainPDA.com: Released: 11/3/2004 Operating System: Palm OS v5.4 Dimensions: 4.76" x 3.08" x 0.61" Weight: 5.1 ounces Processor: 416MHz Intel® Xscale™ processor Wireless: Bluetooth Memory: 256MB (215MB available to the user. 160MB internal flash drive, 55MB of program memory for applicati Expansion Slot: Secure Digital (I/O), Multi-Connector Battery Type: Lithium Ion Audio Out: Steareo Headphone Jack, Speaker Display: Transflective TFT color display supports more than 65,000 Resolution: 320 x 480 pixels Keyboard: Onscreen Handwriting Recognition: Graffiti 2 Digital Camera: None Good specs here to my standards. The only thing missing from my wishlist is the integrated WiFi.

Siemens/Blackberry PhoneIt's the Siemen SK65.... The Register announced the launched another design masterpiece from Siemens (at least in my opinion). On the inside, RIM Blackberry comm Suite is integrated with the mobile phone. "The SK65 offers the full Blackberry application environment," RIM co-CEO Jim Balsillie told us. "It's not just the communications stack."  The back of the phone swivels to reveal a full QWERTY keyboard for SMS and other data entry. If you ask me this looks more stylish than the original blackberry design. :) Malaysia will not be seeing this in its markets ... just like the previos Blackberrys. Just a thought here ... Could the Blackberry compete with the Symbian, Palm and Mirosoft based smartphones outside the US? Hmmmm........ posted by Mohd Nazley Fadhley at 4:07 PM | permalink |

Another PDA/GPS Model ... iQUE 3200
Perhaps the iQUE3600 is priced a little too high ... Garmin decided to launch a "cheapre" model. One main difference which is immediately noticeable is a smaller display area. The iQUE3200 only sports 320x320 pixel screen with a dedidated graffiti area. No more Virtual Grafitti
More specifications:
This gadget is expected to hit the shelves (in the US at least) in August. posted by Mohd Nazley Fadhley at 5:13 PM | permalink |

1GB SD Card for my Tungsten T3
I ordered a larger capacity SD card for my T3. 1GB.
Currently I have 2 cards, a 256MB SD for data storage and backups and another 128MB card for MP3. I'll check out the read/write speed of the 1Gig card with my T3 and post my findings here. If it does not score too well, I'll use the card for my digital camera instead. I should be getting the card soon. posted by Mohd Nazley Fadhley at 8:43 AM | permalink |
