New Smartphones with Windows Mobile 6 and microQ® Launched
Two trendy new smartphones enhanced by QSound Labs' microQ® digital audio engine and operating on Microsoft’s Windows Mobile 6 have now been officially launched. Mio Technology recently released the Mio DigiWalker A702 GPS PDA phone, while BenQ has announced the launch of the super slim E72. Both phones boast an impressive range of multimedia functions and feature polyphonic ringtones enabled by microQ.

The incredibly thin BenQ E72, at just over 1 cm front-to-back, packs all the functionality of an advanced smartphone in a super compact case with slick design touches like pulsing indicator lights beneath a mirrored surface.

An easy to use MP3 player with support for WAV and WMA audio, plus the ability to record and send audio or watch streamed video makes the E72 a good choice for profesionals who want to enjoy multimedia entertainment while having access to the powerful communications and productivity functions offered by the Windows Mobile 6 operating system.
The Mio A702 is a high-end quad-band GSM smartphone equipped with all-in-one capabilities including an exceptional GPS positioning and navigation system, a 3.2 megapixel camera with flash, geotagging of photos and a business card scanner.
