The A6288 PDA Phone By Motorola - Before Its Time
|
|
The Motorola a6288 pda phone is a GPRS (general packet radio service) smartphone. Rather than using Palm OS technology, however, this mobile phone uses a proprietary OS, meaning it will use the operating system of another company than Palm. It does offer many of the same features as a Palm OS supported phone such as wireless internet, a touchscreen with handwriting recognition software and JAVA support. The a6288 pda phone looks like a flip style mobile phone but is just a bit larger. The a6288 pda phone was released to the Asia market in 2001, but is not available in other markets because Motorola released similar models for them.
Reviews of the a6288 pda phone state that this mobile phone was ahead of its time, hitting the market before pda phones were the stylish phone to own. This could account for the patchy sales of the a6288 pda phone claimed one review. It could also be due to the fact that it was released only one year after its closest sister phone with the only upgrade seeming to be the retractible stylus.
Some features of the a6288 pda phone are data capable via cable or infrared, full graphical polyphonic ring tone composer using a piano feature on the keypad, voice memo with up to 30 x w minute entries, three games, an alarm clock, calculator (standard and scientific), a units and currency converter, a dictionary, and a calendar. The a6288 pda phone even has a notepad that can send out faxes or e-mails.
The a6288 pda phone comes in grey or silver with a 340 x 240 LCD display, and it weighs just over 5 ounces. Talk time is 180 to 300 minutes and the stanby time for the phone is 90 to 100 hours. The a6288 pda phone offers the new (in 2001) retractible stylus. The only way you are going to lose this stylus is to lose the phone.
The a6288 pda phone is a smart looking, stylish phone even after seven years on the market. Compared with other similar pda phone reviews, the a6288 pda phone seems to be well thought of by those who have owned it.
