Today screen has a handy status indicator for all the different radios: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GSM/ GPRS and GPS. At a glance you can see if they're on, or switch them on or off with a tap. The screen itself is a 240 x 320 pixel touch screen LCD displaying 64,000 colors. As regards GPS, an application called Map King is pre-loaded, with maps for 5 cities (NCR, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai & Hyderabad) included on the CD. You can choose and download any one of them. Additional maps can be bought for Rs 1800 - 2000.

You can use Map King on the move-it is designed with clear fonts and large buttons. It allows you to find points of interest, petrol stations, hospitals, shopping centers or to simply find a route from A to B. The map of NCR, which came preloaded on our device, was about 1 year old-so most changes that occurred in this period were not reflected. But navigation from point to point works well. It's right about 90% of the time and it's accurate down to about 20 meters. For a converged GPS device, that level of accuracy is great.

The plastic flip cover that covers the screen can stay locked in the open or closed position and protects the screen when you place it in the belt case. Plus, it's removable and replaceable-so you can simply get a new one if it gets scratched. You'd still have to get a good screen protector though, since the screen is prone to develop pits and scratches after using the stylus.
