Advantages Design,size,software,display,battery,slide-out qwerty keyboard Disadvantages No touch-screen(that means-not so flexible in using),processor
...need exactly a smartphone with touch screen and WM5/6 and numeric keyboard-get AsusP525-it`s fantastic,but big/bulky!)
Sound quality for rings is high,and it`s VERY loud.
Now,let`s get closer to WM6:
It doesn`t differ a lot from WM5.
It has built in Microsoft Live!Spaces/Mail/Search
Icons and sound are much more pleasant and nicer and easier(?)interface.
New Internet Explorer works faster(it download pages faster),it is easier to tune now all the features for your needs.
Moreower, most of WM5 software will work also with WM6!
WM6 is more efficient,stable and convinient.Connection does`n go crazy, for example or breakes.
Switch on/off device is faster.E-mail client is much better now-all the e-mails are sent immedeately to the recepient automatically,not by pressinf Send/Receive,as it used to be with WM5,WM20003.
All the other...

The P525 quad-band PDA phone incorporates Push E-mail, Wi-Fi support and built-in numeric keypad to deliver a complete mobile business solution. Users can now stay connected no matter where they are. "Business Anywhere" is the design concept behind the P525. As enterprises continue to globalize, business professionals should no longer be confined by their office desks or even wireless hotspots. The P525 leveraged Push E-mail functions to deliver real-time synchronization with email, phonebooks and calendar items as changes occur on the Exchange account through continuous connection with a mobile operator between the P525 and a server. Supporting Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0 operating system, the ASUS PDA phone supports office applications, including Excel and PowerPoint Viewer etc., permitting completion of everyday tasks even on the road. With both Wi-Fi and GPRS support built in, the P525 provides wireless online connection for research and instant messaging even when wireless hotspots are not available. Skype-in and Skype-out functions further reduce costs on long distance phone calls. Combined with Bluetooth wireless technology for quick file sharing without the tangling cables, the P525 delivers true mobile office. The 2M-pixel digital camera also acts as a business card recognition device. Simply take a picture of a business card, the P525 will automatically convert information on the card into Outlook's contact list. In two steps, organizing business cards collected from conventions and conferences is no longer such as hassle. The 5-way joystick enables one-hand menu navigation for accessing and managing the various powerful functions. The smart PDA phone also comes equipped with a numeric keypad for easy input. For those who prefer using a stylus, the 2.8" display is a touch screen as well. For sensitive information, the P525 offers MySecret. Whether it's word documents, spreadsheets, videos or photos, users can save them in MySecret files and protect them from unauthorized personnel.
