'The Touch Dual's 400-MHz Qualcomm MSM7200 CPU is powerful enough to run Windows Mobile at a decent clip, though on occasion I still had to wait several seconds with frozen dialog boxes on the screen.'
'well-designed slider'
'color saturation is quite poor, lacking vibrancy, and when in direct sunlight the screen is barely legible.'
'The supplied headphones are pretty decent, but if you don't like them, the phone has a standard 3.5mm mini-jack so you can swap them for any pair you like, which is handy.'
'bad design and buggy performance'
'include a bunch of multimedia functions'
'the camera and some aspects of the general user interface were disappointing.'
'large attachments could take a great deal of time even if you were on the fastest wireless G connection possible.'
'The 320-by-240 display is gorgeous, and navigating the device via the small--but very usable--QWERTY keyboard and BlackBerry Pearl -like trackball is quite comfortable.'
'the EDGE speeds of the BlackBerry 8800 seemed pokey'
'Text editing also benefits greatly from the ability to zoom around with one quick motion of the thumb on the trackball, rather than having to click a dozen times on a d-pad or nudge a joystick around for a minute.'
'The level of serious multimedia support is woefully inadequate, bringing to mind the audio/video "support" seen on the Palm devices of two or three years ago.'
'The lack of Windows Mobile 6.0 and no input method other than the 2.4" QVGA resolution touch screen may deter some potential owners, but for those looking for a basic entry into the Windows Mobile world the JAMA could be the answer.'
'big-screen smart phone'
'The Jama 201 keyboard, more finger-friendly than the Ultimate 8502 (well, by incredibly tiny smartphone standards) The 201 is both lighter and more compact than the i-mate 8502 and features a wider screen for native horizontal pictures without having to twist the phone around like the 8502.'
'you should be able to get a good indication from the HK$5,290 (US$679.51) list price announced during its launch in Hong Kong in late July/early August.'
