This version of Mobile messenger from iPAQ is improved than its previous version as it allows “Non volatile memory”.Now there is no loss of data if the battery power is over.
It comes with a Windows Terminal Service client and ICA client pre-loaded that can help IT managers remotely managed servers.

As Regards GPS an application called Map King is preloaded with maps for 5 cities(NCR, Mumbai,Bangalore, Chennai and Hyderabad) included in the CD.You can choose an one of them.Additional Maps can be bought from rs 1800 or 2000.

certain problems with Windows Mobile continue.Applications don’t close when you tap to close button/They Keep Running in the background and hence closing down the machine.You might have to manually close them occasionally.Depending on your need, regular reboots might be necessary to keep the device lag free.
