“After i-mate severed their relations with HTC, they had to find the right producer for their phones, in order to continue their existence as a trademark. After the misconception called JAQ, JAQ3 is one of the first products, marking the first stage in the trademark’s development. The phone targets the consumers, aspiring for the full functionality of Windows Mobile for PocketPC OS and the hardware QWERTY keyboard that would always be there for them to use, but at the same time wouldn’t give up on the display’s QVGA resolution, choosing a quadrangular-display phone like Treo (750, 700w, 700wx) or HP (iPAQ 6500 and iPAQ 6900).” Read this nice review here:

“The phone measures up at 103x42x16 mm and weighs in at 105 grams (which is 2 grams on top of the K1’s weight). These dimensions are comfortable enough to allow you to carry the handset in any way you like. On the fashion front, it everything but a runner-up when faced off against the previous offerings, even though it is not that flashy, it has some latent charm of its own.
