PMP Today

Samsumg’s P520 touchscreen phone adds a wider 2.6-inch touchscreen to its older sister, the P310 card phone. The exact dimensions are 88 x 54 x 8.9mm, a little heavy for its size at 102g. We’re showing the live pictures of the phone from the rear for obvious reasons: this is no fashion phone iPhone rival, like we thought it would be. We also doubt Armani would slap its name on this handset. Otherwise, without such expectations, it’s got some juice, especially the UMA seamless VoIP to cellular and vice versa switching. The user interface is practical and powerful. The built-in document viewer, unfortunately, doesn’t have editing support. Also, the 3 megapixel camera and A2DP Bluetooth gives this little credit-card-size phone some more umph. The video demo of the UI and full-frontal pic (belongs inside the wallet) after the break.

[Update: In case you’ve been wondering where last week’s Weekly Round Up went, we’ve decided to do a bigger issue (with pictures this time) and wait till the end of August for our next publication. We need not point out PMP Weekly has been retired and replacing it will be the aptly named PMP Monthly.]
