The i-Mate PDAL was recently officially announced by i-Mate. Specs are the usual, 2 mega-pixel cam, AKU3.2, Windows Mobile Pocket PC, Wifi, and EDGE. I really can’t say anything else, no keyboard, no go. Enjoy the pics

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. i couldnt possibly think of why anyone would buy a phone like this WITHOUT a keyboard. i-mate might as well write this one off as a loss.

I just bought this phone yesteday. It is a very good phone…The feature I liked about this phone is the Wi-Fi part and it has the ablitiy to connect to the internet automatically if you connect it to the computer…The navigation is good…There is one problem with this device. You open an application, run it and then close…Tough it has closed at the front end but it keeps running at the back end. I manually have to go to settings > Memory to close the app..
Aprt from the the phone is fantastic! The india price is about Rs. 20,000 INR.

In three months time the touchscreen is less sensitive and in the upper 1/3rd screen u have to press above the point at which u want to click.
It does not connect to GPRS/internet as Hutch in India refuses to provide setting.
imate.com refuses to provide access as the imei no. is not recognised by it.
Numerous problem at this price. I wonder why one should spend to purchase such a piece of shit.

Dude,
MP3 quality is awe-some as it has windows media player, for a beginer it takes some time to understand the features of it.
if GPRS does’nt conenct to internet then there is DATA-Plan from HUTCH which makes it possible to connect.
N.Joy.

Does it give problem to user frequently ?

1. Nicely Done Outlook of the Phone.
2. Goood Battery backup. Upto 7 hours talk-time on a stretch. Wi-Fi usage for about 5-6 hours make it last nearly 1.5 days.
3. Its windows mobile so it has hell load features and cutomizations you can nudge with.
4. Hand Writing recognition.
5. Good Camera. 2Mega Pixels.
6. 15,000 InDian Rupees.
Flaws:
1. you cannot connect it to a Linux machine, quite Obviously but i miss doing that.
2. A Bit sluggish at tuimes, when it is loaded with applications, the memory where applications keep running is irritating at times, but if you make it a habbit of cleaning the memory after a few idle hours, you can enjoy the speed.
