The
Symbian based PDA , the P 31 is the next in line after the successful
P30. Handwriting recognition, 1.3 Megapixel camera and the huge
touchscreen are just a few things that the P 31 has. Base
specifications include tri-band 900/1800/1900 MHz GSM/GPRS, but
unfortunately there's no EDGE support - something of a faux pas for a
communicator that's just gone on sale. As for other connectivity, we
have USB, Infrared and Bluetooth, which is suitably comprehensive.
At 118 x 52 x 18 mm and 150, the device is relatively
petite as compared to, say, Sony Ericsson's P910, but appears larger
than its predecessor - a visual illusion, methinks. Although not
excellent, the 208 x 320 pixel 65K colour touch screen of the unit is
quite good, and comfortably large at 2.6". Powered by UIQ 2.1, the P31
shares an interface virtually identical to the P30; snappy and
responsive all over. The 1.3 MP camera appeared to produce good quality
photos although light sensitivity was a bit poor. Also recording video
in MPEG4 format, we also find the obligatory MP3 player along with the
usual UIQ software pack, including among other things PIM applications
and Microsoft Office compatible file viewing.
