Today Sharp, Willcom and Microsoft held a joint press conference for the launch of the New PDA Phone the “es” W-Zero3, which is now the 2nd product made by these 3 company for the Japanese Market. Where the previous version looked more like a PDA, the “es” W-Zero3 is more conservative with a “regular” phone looks but also feature a 2nd keyboard which is more appropriate for writing email, texts… Our “es” W-Zero3 specifications are as follow: 2.8″ VGA Screen, Xscale CPU (416Mhz) 128MB of flash memory and 64MB of SDRAM, MiniSD, 1.3Mpix Camera and this in a body of 135x56x21mm for 175g. Now our first impressions on the product by itself are very good, the product is well done and have a very good and stylish design for a Japanese mobile phone, no the real draw back here for us is the usage the PHS network which is limited to some area, do not works well in trains or car, a 0 compatibility with 3G or GSM. The other bad points are the lack of either Bluetooth or Wifi, but well we gain an optional 1Seg TV tuner (DMB)… But once again with what Japanese TV offer… I would rather prefer a Wifi module that a 1Seg one.
