Motorola MC 35

Having been launched in March 2007, I know my comments on the Motorola MC 35 are bit delayed; however I feel it’s important not to skip over such a good PDA.

Motorola describes it as ‘a pocketable device’ and states it ‘is the combined power of a mobile phone, laptop, camera and bar code scanner that has a new level of enterprise connectivity, functionality, durability and manageability in a small, easy–to carry and easy–to use device.’

It is certainly true that this hardwearing phone is likely to have an excellent product life. The battery life is undoubtedly excellent with its three processor settings: one to maximize battery life, one to maximize performance, and the third is an auto setting, which changes the processor speed depending on its workload

Some important technical details to mention: it has the ability to support nearly any enterprise application, it runs Windows Mobile 5.0 Phone Edition and is compatible with WWAN: EDGE GPRS/GSM allowing anywhere anytime Internet access. If you’re demanding and want to improve the 64 MB SDRAM / 128 ROM memory then it does have a user-accessible SDIO slot.

On the communication side it includes 1-to-1 and 1-to-many voice calls with speakerphone, headset and push-to-talk modes. An extra bonus is the PDA’s bar code scanning capabilities that would enable appropriate businesses to streamline processes and improve customer service even further

With regards to images, the device has a 2MP camera; macro focus; LED flash and operates with a 2.8 in. QVGA color screen

There is no doubt that this device will certainly perform the job well.
