Look out for the PocketSurfer 2

Picture 15

If you’re a regular commuter across the South East of the UK, then you’ll shortly be reading all about the PocketSurfer2. Widget UK, the product’s UK distributor, is doing a four week poster campaign on the tube, rail stations and roadsides beginning in the next few weeks.

It’s a good place to advertise because whilst most commuters will be sat there staring at their highly boring newspaper, they’ll be reminded that they could be playing about on Facebook, Googling, or getting the latest news via their 640×480 pixel full colour, full QWERTY PocketSurfer2.

If you recall, the device comes with 12 months of mobile data services so you don’t need to arse about re-charging credit or taking out contracts.

The manufacturers claim a ‘blazingly fast’ 5-7 second download for your average web page as a result of their wickedly good compression techniques. I’ll need to see that for myself. Could be good!

More details here.

I’ve emailed to see if we can get one to play with as I suspect that a lot of readers might well be up for getting one of these for the ride home.
