GPS navigation is not one of those things most users consider to be crucial in a PDA-phone, at least not in the same way as features like W-Fi and Bluetooth are. But even though most consider it to be a bonus rather than a requirement, it is surprisingly found in quite a few entry-level devices even when high-end ones give it a miss.

How would you like a Lamborghini -- in your pocket? If you would, check out the ASUS Lamborghini ZX1 Window Mobile Professional phone, including a Lambo badge navigation control and a speedometer-like clock on the Today screen.

The specs seem decent:

  • Windows Mobile 6 (Professional, it appears, although some think it may be WM 6.1)
  • TI 2431 450 MHz processor (apparently not the 520 MHz Qualcomm as others have reported)
  • 256 MB Flash ROM
  • 128 MB RAM
  • MicroSD slot
  • 2.8" 240x320 QVGA 16-bit color display
  • Quad-band GSM with HSDPA
  • 802.11b/g WiFi
  • Bluetooth 2.0 with EDR
  • GPS
  • 3 megapixel auto-focus camera on back
  • VGA camera on front
  • 1150 mAh Li-Ion battery
  • 115.6 mm x 59.4 mm x 13.2 mm
  • 119 grams (with battery)

    You can see more images at IntoMobile.

    Some people have said this is the Windows Mobile device for those with iPhone envy. What do you think?

    Pocket-lint.co.uk brings word of a new sub-$500 PC making the rounds at the CeBIT show in Germany: the ECS G10IL, obviously a competitor to the Eee PC from Asus. Details are reportedly sketchy, but the laptop apparently includes three USB 2.0 ports, an Ethernet port, VGA connection, 56k modem and built-in HSDPA 7.2 -- the latter of which seems like an interesting choice, given the relative cost of Wi-Fi components versus HSDPA. Meanwhile, Asus has launched the Eee PC 900 12G, a slightly more

    For several months before its release, the Asus Eee PC was one of a handful of small, inexpensive PCs that had tech types buzzing with anticipation. While the other systems, the Intel Classmate and the One Laptop Per Child XO, are aimed at the educational needs of children around the globe and not generally available to consumers, the Eee holds no such highbrow pedigree--it's for sale directly from Asus to the laptop-buying public. The initial buzz on the Asus Eee had the 7-inch, Linux-based

    An integrated 2-Mpix digital camera with auto focus, and a numeric keyboard - these are features that differentiate this device from its competitors. Other features include a quad-band cell phone, powerful processor, Bluetooth, WiFi, strong battery, and a host of amenities that make the ASUS P525 a promising device. Unfortunately, there are some drawbacks, too. Find out more in this review.
