Asus sure pulled a fast one on us. They’ve been pretty quiet recently about their Windows Mobile 6.0 offerings, and out of the blue we get word of the Asus P550 Windows Mobile 6.0 smartphone from the FCC. Oh FCC, thanks again for the great scoopage.
The spec sheet on the Asus P550 reads similarly to the Asus P750 that we brought you earlier. Which is to say, the feature list is pretty much everything we could ask for in a WinMo6 handset. The Asus P550 rocks a blazin’ 520Mhz, GPS, WiFi, 2 megapixel camera, and tri-band GSM radio with UMTS on the 2100Mhz frequency – all powered by the Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional OS that’s pretty much a requisite of any respectable WM-based smartphone these days. And you get a miniSD card (what, no microSD?) slot to supplement the 256 MB ROM and 64 MB RAM of onboard memory.
No word on pricing or availability, but you can bet that we’ll be keeping a close eye on this one.
