Fujitsu Corporation Japan will release the Pocket LOOX v70 PDA in the middle part of July. The suggested price is around 80,000 yen (640 USD). Pocket Loox v70 is actually Asus a730, the difference is that current a730 model is without WLAN built in. I guess they have some sort of agreement that not to release the same model with same features at the same time?

First of all, please read this if you want to know more about Asus a730. It is exactly the same, em.. except the color. I like the color scheme of v70.
