Closely Related StuffIt's not the slimmest cameraphone in the world, but it ain't nothin' to sneeze at, either: BenQ's new T60 mobile phone packs a 3.2MP camera into a mere 8.9mm of thickness, adding a 2.2 inch QVGA display for good measure. According to the BenQ press release, the T60 will also feature a "high quality multimedia player" and "chic aesthetics" along the lines of a glossy stainless steel back panel and "diamond sliced" 5-way D-pad.

IntroductionHalf phone, half PDA, with some laptop functionality thrown in for good measure, the Benq P50 is the mobile executive's dream, at least on paper. Combining a quad-band GSM cell phone, Windows Mobile-powered PDA with QWERTY keyboard and touchscreen display, and Wi-Fi enabled Web and Email capabilities into a handheld unit is no easy task. Was Benq up to challenge when it designed the P50? Yes ... and No.
DesignThe P50 has been called a "Treo knockoff," and while... FeaturesAnyone considering a Benq P50 would be doing so for its extensive feature set. Running Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC SE (a version of the Win CE operating system), the P50 comes with mobile versions of MS Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, and Outlook pre-installed, and is capable of running hundreds of other productivity and entertainment applications. It should be noted that newer devices, including the TMobile MDA, now run Windows Mobile Version 5; the P50... DisplayThe P50's functionality is really centered around its 2.8" touchscreen. Capable of displaying 65,00 colors at a QVGA resolution of 240 x 320, the screen is not quite state of the art, but is more than sufficient for a handheld. The touchscreen functionality works well, and the Windows Mobile software includes user calibration functionality. As with most handhelds, the screen exhibited some readability problems in direct, bright sunlight, but in general performed... MessagingRunning Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC SE, the P50 comes with mobile versions of Microsoft Outlook and MSN Messenger pre-installed, and can handle SMS and MMS messaging and POP3, IMAP, and push Email right out of the box. Connections can be made via GSM/GPRS cellular and 802.11b Wi-Fi networks, and the phone can sync with your PC's Outlook client via Bluetooth and/or USB. A plethora of other email and messaging clients are also available for Windows Mobile 2003,... Construction & ConclusionOn paper, the Benq P50 offers just about everything a power user could want from a PDA phone: WiFi, QWERTY keyboard, Touchscreen, Megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and an operating system that supports Web browsing and Email out of the box and is customizable via myriad downloadable applications. While the phone didn't entirely disappoint me, I'm sorry to say that it didn't live up to my expectations, either.
The main problem I had with the P50 lay in... The first thing you should do is go back to the mall and ask them if anyone filed a missing phone claim.
