Data transfer, navigation
In terms of data transfer P527 is more advanced than its predecessor, as it has 802.11b/g-compatible WiFi. Besides this we have Bluetooth 2.0, which supports stereo sound transfer (A2DP). The GSM is quad-banded (850/900/1800/1900 MHz), the fastest supported data transfer standard is EDGE, in lack of network coverage we can fall back to GPRS. The USB connector is of version 1.1.
There is a SiRF-Star III GPS receiver in the machine, which make navigation possible. Besides the required accessories, Asus GO is also part of the package, which is a version of iGO, licensed by Asus. P527 doesn’t have version 8, known from PNAs, but the 2006 Pluis edition, so there are no 3D buildings or the like. I would have liked to see, however, how the weak CPU runs the program. It’s funny that sometimes the software doesn’t start up, as there is not enough memory for running it. If my memory serves me correctly, this version of iGO needs at least 25 MB of free memory for running without problems, and this amount is unavailable even at first startup, so even the fact that the software starts up is a miracle on its own, so we shouldn’t be planning longer travels with it! Besides iGO we can also find the GPS software called TraveLog. Its icon would rather fit some kind of sniper-game.
