  • An excellent example of integrating GPS into a PDA, the Asus MyPal A636 includes North American maps, a loud speaker, and excellent battery life. It also has Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and Windows Mobile 5.
  • Thicker and heavier than competitors, the Asus MyPal A636 has a 3.5-inch screen thats too small for viewing driving directions, and the included 256MB SD card holds the bare minimum of maps. There are also no map updates available at this time.
  • The Asus MyPal A636 is a PDA with a built-in GPS receiver that puts maps and directions on an equal footing with appointments and e-mail. While it delivers accurate directions and long battery life, its a bit sluggish.

  • Asus MyPal A636 is a worthy alternative to GPS-integrated PDAs from the likes of Mio and Acer. It's less successful as a PDA than the others, if only because the hardware has so clearly been designed with satellite navigation usage in mind. As a GPS p...

  • Onboard GPS; louspeaker; excellent battery life; Windows Mobile 5 OS; Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity.
  • Relatively thick and heavy; 3.5-inch display too small for viewing driving directions; bundled 256MB SD card hardly enough to hold maps.
  • The Asus MyPal A636 is a PDA with a built-in GPS receiver that puts maps and directions on an equal footing with appointments and e-mail. While it delivers accurate directions and long battery life, its a bit sluggish.

  • gelungene Kombination von GPS und PDA, ausgezeichnete Akkulaufzeit, Kartenmaterial von Nordamerika
  • dicker und schwerer als vergleichbare Geräte, kleines Display, nur 256 MByte SD-Speicherkarte
  • Der Asus Mypal A636 ist ein PDA mit eingebautem GPS-Empfänger, der Landkarten und Fahrtrouten dieselbe Priorität einräumt wie Terminen und E-Mail. Er bietet zwar akkurate Fahrtrouten und eine lange Akkulaufzeit, ist insgesamt aber etwas schwerfällig....
