Software, phone calls
There is quite a lot of extra software. Although there is no quick launch on the Today screen, but thanks to the lots of hardware keys, there’s no need for one. There is, however, a profile chooser and we can also see the icon of Asus GO.
From the taskbar we can access the status monitor of Asus, which shows us the battery level and other similar information. We can access Asus quicklaunch at the press of a button, which is a nice little framework, people who are used to conventional phones will probably love it, even if it’s a bit slow. In the settings we can tamper with the USB port too, as P527 can behave as a USB Mass Storage device, so there’s no need for ActiveSync for moving around data. It’s a great thing that thanks to the task manager the X button really closes running programs.
We can find a few delicacies in the menu too. Asus ZIP is a file archiver, just like its name tells; pushing the Organize meetings menu item takes us to and advanced calendar; Voice commander brings up voice control configuration, while using Remote presenter we can control PowerPoint, running on a desktop PC, through Bluetooth. There is Java, an RSS reader, on the bonus CD we can find the contact card digitizer.
Phone call software are the usual, Outlook is used for messaging and as a contact list, and it serves both functions perfectly. It’s not a factory feature, however, that we can set mp3 files, stored on the machine, as ringtones.
