Asustek to launch smartphone and second own-brand PDA in 2Q 2003

Emma Wang, Taipei; Chinmei Sung, DigiTimes.com [Friday 27 December 2002]

Motherboard maker Asustek Computer plans to launch a smartphone in the second quarter of next year, joining High Tech Computer (HTC) and Compal Communications as the third Taiwanese company producing the mobile computing device. Its second own-brand Pocket PC will also be introduced in the same quarter.

The A710-codenamed PDA will feature GPRS and 802.11b wireless connectivity, according to the company. Its first own-brand Pocket PC, the MyPal A660, does not provide built-in wireless access.

The company aims to rank among the top three PDA vendors in Taiwan within two years.
