LG's N1 - Not Your Father's PDA
Posted by Chris Gohlke in "HARDWARE" @ 08:00 PM
"PDAs may be dying, but they're certainly far from dead. All the extra room and battery life you gain by pulling a cell radio can be used for other fun things, like, say, GPS, T-DMB, and SRS Mobile HD for mobile "theater-like" surround sound (um, ok). At least that's what LG's new N1 is going for; the powerhouse portable also runs Windows Mobile 5 and plays back the regulars like WMV, WMA, and MP3, as well as a few of our other favorites like DivX, AVI, and OGG. Hell no it's not available or coming to the US, but it's mildly amusing to fantasize about the likes of this stuff landing here sometime before 2010, no?"
The PDA is certainly not dead, but the line continues to blur as the functions of phones, PIMs, media players, and even GPS's are added to more and more devices.
