Mio A501 PDA Review - Personal Computer World
Personal Computer World have published a review of the Mio A501 PDA which is a fully functional GPS PDA and smartphone. 'Having launched its A701 PDA phone complete with GPS last year, Mio is no stranger to hybrid devices such as this. The A501 is essentially a smaller, slimmer and lighter version that manages to pack in a similar array of technology. Mio's trademark grey-and-silver colouring and a 2.7in display takes up most of the front panel. Instead of nestling a directional controller among the shortcut keys under the screen, you'll find it at the upper left-hand side. Quite what the reasoning was behind this decision we're not sure and, although we did find it useful for operating the screen one-handed, it's a bit awkward to use accurately.'
