i-mate™ Go brings one touch browsing to handsets
Simplified user experience and Windows Mobile® 6.1 position i-mate for mass market appeal
9th December 2008 – i-mate™, the global specialist in Microsoft Windows
Mobile devices and software, today launched Go, a new user interface for imate handsets. i-mate Go takes advantage of i-mate’s high resolution touch screens and advanced capabilities to deliver one touch access to the user’s favourite functions through a simple icon based menu.
Today also marks the start of Windows Mobile® 6.1 availability for the i-mate Ultimate range, commencing with the i-mate Ultimate 9502 and Ultimate 8502. Windows Mobile® 6.1 will be available for the Ultimate 8150 and Ultimate 6150 very shortly.
Designed with first time i-mate customers in mind, i-mate Go is also expected to appeal to experienced Windows Mobile users. This is because it offers a faster way of getting things done, whilst also ensuring the full suite of Windows Mobile tools remain within easy reach.
With the tap or slide of a finger, i-mate Go easily navigates through the full suite of Windows Mobile tools. Users can customise the interface adding their own icons for one touch access to the things they use every day from emails, notes and text messages to pictures, the internet or music. i-mate Go is available as a free download for the Ultimate 9502, Ultimate 8502,
Ultimate 8150, Ultimate 6150, and JAMA 101.
