Acer C530 is a powerful pocket PC; it operates on the latest Microsoft Windows Mobile 5.0, operating system and provides the full suite of MS Office applications, Pocket Outlook, MSN, Email, Word, Excel and PowerPoint Mobile.

Acer C530 - provides a multi-functional all-in-one GPS PDA solution in a sleek and lightweight form factor.

Featuring a top of the range PDA specification combined with the latest GPS technology, the C530 perfect for the mobile professional. The c530 is more compact than a normal PDA and is closer in size to a smart phone.

It also has a 2.8in screen rather than the usual 31/2in, although it still provides the standard 240x320-pixel resolution. The screen is very bright, and text is clear as long as you turn off Windows Mobile Clear Type. The huge short-cut buttons provide easy access to calendar, contacts and email, but the joystick is wobbly and imprecise.
