| amoncarsz's Full Review: Kyocera QCP-6035 Smartphone |
Assuming you are a very busy person, I will attempt to point the features and advantages of this palm phone, the best of its kind so far, in a very concise manner.
Verizon Wireless first introduced this device in the market on March 5, for $499. It is the most recent attempt to merge a palm and a phone into one handy solution.
If you are into really small phones, this is not for you. However, it is a better phone than the Qualcomm pdQ, lighter, shorter and thinner. Its featured with all the novelties of today's wireless phones plus many more attributes that differentiate it from the rest.
The palm is what makes this a jewel. You can use it while the phone is off. You just flip down the keypad and the palm turns on. This phone includes a headset, which makes talking and consulting your palm a real nice experience. The palm has all the features of a regular Palm, although the screen is just a bit smaller, but it does not mean that you won't see all the information there. It is simply compacted and therefore smaller. But hey, it is fair since you are meshing a palm with a phone. Increasing the size will turn this into a big phone, and I am sure the designers tried as best they could to balance the size with the performance of the screen of the palm
This phone enables the best Internet browsing and email access of its kind, through a Eudora configuration. Besides, many applications including American Airlines flight search, E*Trade stock program and others can be downloaded and supported by the Kyocera 6035.
From the charging cradle, connecting through any other PC, palm, etc, you can synchronize data or programs. You can also exchange information with any other palm by beaming.
You can access the address book from the palm or from the phone menu, which is controlled by a dial on the right side.
Downside: the Eudora browser does not support secure transactions, yet.
