Powered by a 528MHz Qualcomm MSM 7225 CPU, the smartphone also comes with a 2 megapixel camera, 256MB ROM, 192MB RAM, Bluetooth and a 2.4-inch display screen (320 x 240 pixels). A microSDHC card slot is available for more storage space.

While a full review is forthcoming, my overall initial impression of the Dash 3G is – wow, love at first sight. It feels great, has an exceptionally awesome QWERTY keyboard and as a big bonus, Windows Mobile 6.1 is speedy. Seeing the new Dash 3G brought back oodles of memories I’d shared with the first Dash.
