Writing for technology website vnunet.com, Daniel Robertson said the portable computer system had a "quality feel" overall, with its 10.2-inch display praised for its "good use of available space".

Other aspects of the machine praised by the writer included its "reasonably sturdy" build and keyboard.

Discussing the latter, he stated that the feature included "with well-spaced keys and a full set of function keys forming the top row".

"Our only quibble is that we kept hitting the up arrow key instead of the right shift key because of the positioning of the two," he added.

Described by the electronics manufacturer as the fastest business PDA phone currently available in the world, the device includes an 800MHz processor, Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional operating system and a 2.8-inch VGA touchscreen display.
