Asus A636
There are all sorts of promises made for PDA devices these days. Some of them are true, and some of them are more along the lines of wishful thinking. When it comes to the Asus A636, there are several things you can say about the unit and be stating facts. Here are a few examples. First, there is the matter of the screen. The Asus A636 PDA has pretty standard specifications for a PDA screen. You ill find the usual 320 X 240 pixel resolution and the 65K color range. One nice perk you will find is a slightly larger screen. The screen on the A636 measures a full 3.5” diagonal. The screen also has a trans-reflective quality, which means it will be viewable with ease both indoors and outdoors. There are 240 backlight levels, with the lowest level being comfortable to read in the dark. All in all, the screen functions with the best of anything offered by and PDA market, and is ahead of quite a few.
When it comes to battery life, we all know that using your PDA to access the Internet is going to eat up juice. In similar manner, viewing videos and playing games can do the same thing. While no PDA is exempt from that type of a drain, some are better than others in how they use up battery life when not online. In the case of the Asus A636 PDA, you can depend on 44 hours of offline work with files and such. This stacks up very nicely with the competition, roundly winning out over quite a few of the other PDA brands available today.
Another quick note on the battery; your Asus A636N PDA battery is protected by one of the well made Asus PDA A636N aluminum cases. These cases are designed to prevent any problems with dust and other contaminants. Make sure you do not crack or damage the case, and you will be doing your part to help keep your battery in good shape. Memory can be another factor that varies from one PDA device to the next. Because the cheap A636 PDA utilizes the Windows Mobile 5.0 operating system, that means it uses the memory for storage in a slightly different manner than many other operating systems. There is a total of 59.21 MB of flash memory that is used to store your data and programs, with 58.09 MB of ROM to handle general operations. The result is that your memory is not used up running programs and you can store a little more than you would be able to do otherwise. What is included in the standard kit for a PDA varies from vendor to vendor. With the discount Asus A636 PDA, you will find such useful accessories as a USB cable for synchronization, a hard cover case for your PDA, a car cradle and a car screen mount, and an AC charger. The kit for your A636 will be sufficient to get you off and running in no time.
