Photos: Hands-on with the i-mate Centurion and Legionnaire

Hot Phones

Besides the i-mate 810-F, the first ruggedised PDA-phone to be shown at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the Dubai-based company also revealed the i-mate Centurion and i-mate Legionnaire.

The Centurion (shown above) is a credit-card-sized, non-touchscreen PDA-phone with a full Qwerty keypad.

Although the Centurion is tiny and very light, we tried out the keyboard and found it surprisingly usable. This model will retail for around $550 (£380) when it launches in the middle of this year, and will run Windows Mobile 6.5 when the mobile OS launches. UK pricing and availability have yet to be announced.
