i-mate Reveals Two New Ultimates

The Ultimate 8502 and the Ultimate 9502 are the two latest additions to i-mate’s growing collection of Windows Mobile devices.

Both phones feature Wi-Fi, in-built GPS receivers, AV-in and AV-out, and QWERTY keypads. They are triband phones with GPRS, EDGE and HSDPA. Both run on Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional and are equipped with Qualcomm MSM 7200 400 MHz processors.

In addition to these similarities, the two devices are Bluetooth-enabled and A2DP-compatible, with 256MB ROM and 128MB of RAM. They also support external memory with microSD cards and use 2.5mm earphone sockets (which seems to be a major turn-off).

The Ultimate 8502 is equipped with a 2 megapixel camera (with LED flash), supports Push Email, and has document viewers for MS Documents and PDF files. Its 2.6 inch TFT touchscreen display has a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels with 256k colors.

What seems to be the Big Brother of the Ultimate series is the i-mate Ultimate 9502 that comes off looking more like some sort of Tablet PC. The QWERTY keyboard is under the large 2.8 inch TFT touchscreen display that has a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels with 256k colors.

The display simply slides up, much as in the Sony Vaio UMPC. The 9502 is equipped with a 3.2 megapixel camera, auto-focus, LED flash, and a secondary camera for video calling. The device is quite heavy at 200g.
