Features
The JAMin has all the basic features that Windows Mobile offers. You have basic calendar functions with appointments, calculator, PDF viewer, alarm clock, tasks and a lot more. The JAMin also comes complete with Microsoft Pocket Office which includes Word, Excel and PowerPoint. With Word and Excel you can not only view documents but edit them too. Depending on the ROM version of your JAMin you may or may not have push email available. Most new versions have push email built in and if you need to update you can always download the latest ROM from the distributor. If you have an Imate device you can download the latest ROM at:

The JAMin has many advanced features like a mega pixel camera, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi and more.
The camera is 2.0 mega pixels and does not have a built in flash. The camera captures average pictures and is nothing special. During the day pictures are decent but at night or poor light conditions the pictures turn out awful. Although the camera is 2.0 mega pixels does not necessarily mean that it is good in all conditions, a flash could have helped a lot. The camera also has macro mode which can be selected on the camera lens.
The Bluetooth on the JAMin is 1.2 and of course does not have EDR (Enhanced Data Rate). The JAMin does not offer stereo over Bluetooth capability. At the time of release Bluetooth version 1.2 was the latest technology and was far better than the 1.0 standard. Due to the fact that Bluetooth is hardware not software you can not upgrade it to 2.0.
The WiFi works great on the JAMin and will be discussed more in detail under the internet section of the review.
