Mobile Internet Devices or MIDs are very popular these days because of their practical design and small form factor that cuts the weight as well. We wrote about Pocket Surfer 2 from Datawind a while ago and you were attracted by it. Now we want to show you a new improved version of the same gadget, released on September 30, as we discovered on pocketables. This one is called Pocket Surfer 2/R and adds some new functionalities beside the ones you already read about in our previous article.



PocketSurfer 2 mini laptop computers are available at Iwantoneofthose.com at a price of $322.2 with 20 free hours of web navigation on month, having a 5-inch display with a resolution of 640 x 240 pixels in order to display web pages and videos in full format, while the QWERTY keyboard with cool LED backlit technology is perfect for intensive typing on the go.
The gadget continues to be among the most popular mini laptop computers optimized for Internet access and supports Java, has wireless connectivity, GPRS modem built inside, and a rechargeable Li-Ion battery providing up to 5 days or standby or 4 hours of continuous operating time. During the 4 hours you can do a lot of things with it, such as read the latest news, compose emails, upload newest pictures on your blog and chat.



Even if it looks cool, especially the keyboard, it seems a bit overpriced, and maybe that’s why Datawind thought in adding some important features to the initial configuration.
PocketSurfer 2 R brings with a touchpad, enhanced screen, advanced text entry and user interface, as well as improved network coverage powered by no other than Vodafone telecommunication carrier.
It now provides unlimited usage for 59.99 pounds in the UK without limiting you to hotspots. The roaming costs 5 pence per minute in both Europe and USA, while 600 minutes have a price of 29.99 pounds, but it brings free unlimited Internet access.



The PocketSurfer’s keyboard integrates extrusion-grooved rubber for differentiating keys, keeping the tactile response. Then, the keypad has a dirt resistant metal finish for long term use, while the separate numeric row gives you more freedom when working with numbers.
Other elements include the built-in GPS receiver for mapping, quad band support, rechargeable Li-Pol battery, miniUSB charging port, 7 seconds for webpage uploading, and a mouse pointer. The entire handheld measures 152 x 75 x 15 mm at 174 grams.



PocketSurfer 2R mini laptop computers with free unlimited Internet access are available at the same price as the previous version. Can't wait for the 3G model!
