how much the price would be then? will it more expensive than ATOM?

i try convert the price seen in Asus TW website before, it's arround 2.6K. Try to go to forum2.mobile-review.com, go to the handheld part, there's a lot of pict taken by Asus P525. And imo, it better than ANY PDA-Phone in the market now. Check this out http://www.ppcsg.com/index.php?showtopic=77859. Man.. it's damn nice! But now i've been thinking about this one.. or P990i T_T (suddenly i feel my self so.. "loso")

Most likely to be priced around 2500-2600 i think...shouldn't be too expensive if they wanna challenge the PDA phone market

Hello, fellow forumers. I'm back (with a big grin on my face. He he... ) bearing the latest updates on the P525.

As y'all know from my last update, the P525 was officially launched in Taiwan on the 29th May, & of course, it'll be a matter of time before consumers get a hold of the PPC phone & subsequently, post reviews of the device on the net, complete with self-shot pic.s of the device, snapshots from the P525's cam. & even vid. samples! (Oo... ) Finally, 1st hand reviews from the users themselves worth looking forward (& salivating ) to.

Unfortunately, there's a downside to the reviews. Most of them're from the 1st few Chinese (Taiwanese, more specifically) customers who've purchased the P525. Thus, most of the reviews're in Chinese. But thanks to translation websites, non-Chinese language readers can also grasp a significant amount of understanding from the reviews. One thing to take note though: the translations aren't perfect, so there're certain words / phrases that might not make sense. Some're even quite hilarious. Better still, Chinese language readers can simply click on the original untranslated pages in the links.

Therefore, without further ado, here're the links to the reviews. Enjoy.

Other forums' links:-
1) PPCSG: ASUS p525 - small review availiable!
2) Mobile01 (This one really needs to be read in Chinese coz' website translations're not cut up to this site. Req.s registration to view the pic.s though)

Yet, more updates on CNet Asia (Asus phones coming soon?). It seems that ASUSTek's 1st international overseas HQ in S'pore's officially opened. Looks like there's no stopping the P525 coming to the island country now.

Now, don't y'all just wanna throw your Dopod's, O2 Xdas, iPAQs, etc. out of the window? Hee hee.... (My grin just got wider... ) Whadaya think, fellow forumers? Regret buying those devices so early? OK, OK. Patience's virtue.

BTW, my 1st & 2nd posts on the 1st page of this thread're constantly updated for the convenience of 1st time viewers to this thread. All my links're also there, so do check them out from time to time. Thanks.

Hahahhahaahhah........i couldn't stop laughing at this line ...damn funny translation

looks promising.... huh.. can't wait this cool PDA to hit our shore..

i just purchase the ipaq 6828 yesterday..

anyway, this asus p525 have keyboard, its really2 appealing. other than that i think the spec is quite standard.. maybe i made the wrong purchase already.. haha

dun forget the auto-focus bro.. And have you seen the sample snap shot? geez so tempting.. but i really like the design of rw6828.. i think i'll wait untill the firmware upgrade for rw6828, then see how the performance is. If it's good ledi, like faster, speaker sound louder, no hang, then that's it! I dun want to wait no more! Hahahhaha.. btw, congrats for the purchase

this phone is my next upgrade, i missed numeric keypads but at the sametime i want a touchscreen as well

Yeah.. it will be my next PPC phone... anyone want to by my Dopod ?

This one is not Pocket PC phone. Just a normal PPC with GPS.

LMAO,
sorry for misundertanding, i tot it was a PDA phones

It will be great if ASUS makes this PPC as Pocket PC Phone. The ROM is so Big thus no need memory card.

OFFICIAL PRODUCT SITE'S UP!!!
1) ASUSTeK Computer Inc., Global: Home > Products > Mobile Phones > P Series > P525

Take note that the spec.s of the P525 on the Specifications page're incorrect. I guess ASUSTeK's webmaster was too eager & excited to post the page.

THE P525 SPOTTED IN S'PORE!!!
In the hands of Mr. Benson Lin, President of ASUS Asia-Pacific, i.e. during ASUS' grand opening of its 1st international overseas HQ. The pic.s're further proof that the P525's coming to S'pore & imminently, M'sia & subsequently the rest of the world.
Mr. Lin also mentioned about the P525 & its approx. S'pore launching date in an interview with VR-Zone.
