iMate Has A Replacement For The JASJAR: Not Quite
Posted by Nurhisham Hussein in "HARDWARE" @ 06:00 AM
"It looks like i-mate's ongoing collaboration with TechFaith is starting to pick up a good head of steam, seeing how they've gone and entrusted the Chinese ODM with serving up the de facto successor to the HTC-sourced JASJAR."
iMate is confirmed picking up the UBiQUiO 601 as the K-JAR - tri-band GSM with GPRS, TI OMAP CPU, 2.8" QVGA TFT-LCD, Bluetooth 1.2, 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, and miniSD slot. Apart from the form-factor, this is very far in terms of specs from the 3G, 3.6" VGA, SDIO-packing JASJAR - anybody else of the same opinion? BTW, IMHO, the iMate name is only marginally an improvement of the original - I keep thinking it sounds like the latest in avant-garde tableware.
