The Register reviews the Asus MyPal A636 Windows PDA here. With the A636, you’ll get a Windows Mobile 5.0 PDA which also happens to have an integrated GPS receiver, and Wi-Fi support. Other specs include a 3.5 inch 240 x 320 65K color screen, SDIO slot, and an Intel XScale 416MHz processor. The verdict?
Asus MyPal A636 is a worthy alternative to GPS-integrated PDAs from the likes of Mio and Acer. It’s less successful as a PDA than the others, if only because the hardware has so clearly been designed with satellite navigation usage in mind. As a GPS platform, it’s impressive, with a good, flexible antenna design and a powerful receiver. It’s let down a little by the bundled software, but there’s nothing to stop you switching to a better app later on.
