We didn't expect it, but another device has appeared on the
MWg Web site--the UBiQUiO 503g. This PDA-phone has a form factor made popular by BlackBerry and Palm Treo devices, employing a QWERTY keypad below the LCD. UBiQUiO is a relatively new brand owned by UK retailer Expansys--the company that also has a stake in MWg.
When contacted, MWg told us that this device is targeted at the US and Europe markets and is already available for purchase from the Expansys UK site. It's now consolidated under the MWg brand but may not make its way to Asia.
That's quite a pity as its specifications look pretty decent with HSDPA, Wi-Fi and 96MB of built-in RAM. On the bright side, at least we don't have to contend with its weird brand name that can't decide if all the letters should be in caps, if it never comes to our region.
