Qtek 9090 review
This device is positioned in the high-end range of Phone Edition devices, offering itself as a complete solution capable of keeping pace with the best-performing Pocket PCs. The technical specifications are high-level, starting with the Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition for Pocket PC Phone Edition operating system, continuing with the Intel XScale PXA263 processor at 400Mhz and the integrated Bluetooth 1.1 and infrared connectivity systems. The Qtek 9090 represents the third generation of Pocket PC Phone Edition from the Taiwanese company, which has put to good use the experience gained in this segment, creating a unique and functional device. Being the successor to the 2020 model, the Qtek 9090 retains all of its features while refining them, as with battery life and Bluetooth, and adding new ones, such as the sliding keyboard and Wi-Fi support. It is also a GSM/GPRS device, with quad-band operation (850/900/1800/1900), integrated wireless functions, a sliding QWERTY keyboard, and equipped with the distinctive SDIO Now! feature which allows the Qtek 9090 to be expanded with new functionalities, such as, for example, the use of a GPS receiver.
The availability of a Wi-Fi connection is one of the main new features of the Qtek 9090. This is compatible with the 802.11b connection standard and allows for simple and immediate connection to available networks, as well as being usable for WEB browsing, for receiving multimedia streaming content, and above all for using Voice Over IP applications. Finally, the class B GPRS allows the 'Always ON' function to be exploited to the fullest, making it possible to stay connected to the GPRS network while simultaneously receiving calls, and sending or receiving SMS and MMS.
