Asus A620BT Bluetooth Pocket PC Review @ The Register
image Asus launched its MyPal A620 PDA on the back of Microsoft's summer launch of Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC. Wireless connectivity was one of the key improvements the software giant made with the new version of its operating system, but without a built-in radio the A620 wasn't best able to demonstrate those communications enhancements.

Taking that criticism on board, Asus is now offering the A620BT, which adds Bluetooth to the A620 hardware. Almost no other specifications have been changed. Like its wireless-free sibling, the A620BT contains 64MB of SDRAM, of which 55.2MB is available to users. The new model includes 64MB of Flash ROM, double the A620's 32MB. The PDA's screen is the Pocket PC standard: 3.5in, 240 x 320 pixels, 16-bit colour.

Asus describes the A620BT as the world's thinnest and lightest Compact Flash-supporting Pocket PC. It weighs 141g (5oz) and is 1.3cm (0.5in) thick. That certainly compares well with Dell's Axim X5, which weighs in at 196g (6.9oz) and is 1.8cm (0.7in) front to back. Indeed, the X5 is bigger all round.
