The Asus Zayo is the fastest, thinnest, has the best screen, and the longest battery life. I'd go with that.

Where would I find a US version to buy?

I prefer the Ipaq 39xx, it has a much better display than all the other PDA's, it is much more sharper.

I don't like the e740, too small direction pad and the ATI graphics chip leads to slower games at the moment.

Regards..

Marco.

On MobilePlanet.com for $499


The Zayo also has a Transflective screen, just like the iPaq H39xx that I have. But the Zayo is smaller and much faster on benchmarks. Plus it's got a nice metal casing so it's nice and solid. It's got TONS of accessories, including a keyboard, CF Sleeve, GPS stuff, everything, it's all listed there. A 3600mAh extended battery, CF digital camera. I think it's a pretty sturdy and good looking device.

Basically, it's smaller than an e310 and faster than the Loox and has a better battery life than the iPaq H39xx with plenty of accessories.

Oh, and it's got a new generation of IRDA called FastIR or FIR that runs at 4 MBPS

1200mAh built in battery that gets 15-16 hours of battery life because of Asus's SPS technology (smart power saving).

I really like my e740. I have not had any problems with it needing soft reset or anything. Wi-Fi works great and I hope that the new patch comes out soon.

It says the Zayo only has a reflective. I heard the screen is good nevertheless.

Seems like this is my dream device. Long battery life, good screen, sturdy, small casing, and good speed to boot. And light-up buttons :lol:

Oh, yeah, is this going to be retail any time soon? I personally have enough money saved up, but my mom won't let me use her credit card and reimburse her.
I don't have a problem if I can physically buy it in stores, or if there a popular online retailer that has it. My bro has had a few bad experiences with unknown online shopkeeps.

I'll send you my H39xx if you buy me the Asus Zayo.

Sounds good. But what about the price?

Do you know when it will be out at Staples? And the price? Better not be higher than mobileplanet 8O
