 If anything, the Asus P527 has us more interested in Asus' next phones for the U.S. market. The phone shows a lot of potential, especially in the top-notch navigation software, and the attention to battery life. Unfortunately, the phone borders on being unusable after only a brief period awake, as open apps pile up and crash the Windows Mobile interface. Even without all the open programs, the phone is so underpowered, with a slow processor and a dearth of RAM, that the best of Asus' custom apps won't even load reliably. Still, with all this potential, we're curious about what's next out of Asus' stable, including the upcoming Lamborghini phone. That one has to be faster, no? Release: March 2008. Price: $550.
Pros: Excellent navigation software. Nice feature set, with some good extra apps thrown in. Light phone. Great battery life.
Cons: Terribly underpowered. Can hardly run included software. Dedicated buttons aren't intuitive, don't open some necessary apps.
