ASUS P560 sports Windows Mobile 6.1, many acronyms

by Chris Ziegler, posted May 14th 2008 at 1:33PM

Buried underneath the hoopla surrounding the announcement of ASUS' Lamborghini-branded ZX1 at CeBIT, the more mellow P560 was also announced, featuring pretty much every spec the average WinMo buyer could want these days in a package that speaks far, far less about the car you're driving (or wish you were driving, anyway). HSDPA, WiFi, 3.2 megapixel autofocus cam, Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR, GPS, microSDHC slot, 256MB of ROM, 128MB of RAM, and Microsoft's freshest build of Windows Mobile Professional -- 6.1, that is -- all have managed to find their way into the P560's unassuming shell. Not bad, though the €500 (about $772) price tag could scare a few folks away when it launches next month.

does it have VGA? what's the processor? what gsm/3g bands?

pending some of those questions answered, and...

as soon as i-mate gets around to putting microSDHC and WM6.1 on my 9502 it will still be king over this ASUS (in my opinion).
