Palm, i-mate, and MWG go back to HTC for ODM handset orders
Ever since our favorite little ODM cut their manufacturing-strings and started hocking their wares under their own global brand, HTC has blossomed into the Windows Mobile smartphone manufacturer that we all knew it would be. Now that HTC has their own-branded line of mobile phones, their ODM business accounted for less than 10% of their…
i-mate working on a Foleo-like device?
i-mate is reportedly working on a “shell” device that will feature a 1024×768 display (7 inch?), the full QWERTY keyboard and a battery that can last 80 hours.

I-mate’s new JAMA 101/201 handsets look familiar, complement Ultimate lineup
It looks like i-mate is looking to give its i-mate JAMA some much needed low-end company. If you’ll recall (or not), the entry-level JAMA smartphone from i-mate was a lackluster Windows Mobile 5.0 aimed at the mass-market. It didn’t have WiFi, 3G, or even EDGE radios, and only worked on two GSM frequencies (dual-band). Well,…
