O2 Launches Xda Flame in India
By: Harikrishnan Menon   |   Oct 18, 2007

O2 has announced the launch of the Xda Flame in India. According to the company, the Xda Flame is the first PDA-phone to harness the full multimedia capabilities of a 3D graphics processor.


"It encapsulates everything O2 stands for – innovation and performance in a sleek, desirable package. It has all the qualities O2 fans have come to love about our brand and products," said Mark Billington, CEO of O2 Asia Pacific and Middle East.

"The Xda Flame is designed for mobile professionals and tech pioneers with the highest appetite for innovation, business productivity and multimedia experiences," he added. "We're delighted to be working with Nvidia to create this new class of device and demonstrate O2's commitment to growing the category space and enhancing mobile experiences for our customers."

The Nvidia GoForce 5500 graphics processing unit (GPU) accelerates multimedia tasks such as audio and video in hardware. The improved speed allows console-class 3D gaming, DVD-quality video and photo playback, and the ability to display interactive 3D charts and diagrams.

With this GPU, the Xda Flame also becomes the first PDA-phone to feature two processors, the other being an Intel CPU. This allows the workload to be split between the two, leading to overall device efficiency and a smoother enduser experience.

Business users will appreciate the device's productivity features, including Microsoft Office for Windows Mobile, Office Outlook Mobile with Direct Push Technology, Adobe Reader, and other popular O2 applications. Multiple applications will run smoothly, thanks to the 2GB ROM and 128MB RAM.

Those who need to stay connected will benefit from a range of options: wireless LAN, Bluetooth 2.0, and a micro-SD card slot. Customers can also connect USB devices via USB OTG (On-The-Go) technology and use the device as a host. An infrared remote control feature lets the Xda Flame manage appliances such as TV, video and audio players wirelessly.

The 3.6" TFT VGA LCD touch panel supports 262K colors at a resolution of 480x640. If you want a bigger screen, you can hook up the Xda Flame to a TV or computer screen via its TV-out connector. It also has a 2.0 megapixel camera. SRS WOW HD surround-sound ensures high-quality audio through the device's dual speakers.

The Xda Flame will retail this month at Rs. 39,990 (inclusive of taxes) across major cities in India. It comes with a one-year local warranty.

I have got one. It is very nice. However, the MMS service from Qtel "Qatar Telecommunication Company" and Remote Control, do not work.

If a HTC TYTN 2 can be bought for 32k, where is the point of an O2 XDA FLAME for 40k?
