Technology that changed us: The 1990s, from WorldWideWeb to Google | Handheld Delivery Device

But oh man, the reason you’re getting this is the keyboard. Now, I don’t find this the most awesome form factor, personally. At 6.7 inches, it’s a little bit too wide for me to comfortably thumb-type on. But folks with bigger hands will thrill to the scissor-like depth of the keys and the sculpted, laptop-like key edges. Chiclets these ain’t.

I think having no mouse pointer is huge mistake and, for me, would make the Debian Linux side not useful

Our only reservation is that in this context it only offers 1080p video capture and not the 4K resolution that the sensor is capable of.

"There is a reason why we train medical professionals for decades and artificial intelligence-based algorithms, tricorders and many other advanced technologies are designed to upgrade their capabilities so they can use their unique vision, expertise and experience while focusing on the patients. The tricorder should make this possible instead of replacing what physicians do today."

One of those factors might be that the screen resolution of the Kong 3 is only 1,440 x 720, and not the higher resolutions that we’ve seen with 5.99-inch phablets. That’s less than half the number of pixels of a phone with a 2,160 x 1,080 resolution display, and that makes a huge difference to how agile the phone feels.

The only missing item is an antenna for the walkie-talkie, which we assume only comes with the 3T version of the phone. We can’t say if it is possible to source that antenna and make this feature work, but the threaded connector for it is on this handset.

The Asus NovaGo featured in this review is a model with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It’s the version currently available in the United States, although Asus may offer 4GB/64GB and 8GB/256GB configurations in some other markets.

Instead of expensive machines and long waiting times, information would be available immediately. Physicians could scan a patient, or patients could scan themselves and receive a list of diagnostic options and suggestions. "Imagine the influence it could have on underdeveloped regions. It should not substitute for medical supervision, but when there is none it comes in handy. Also, it would make the biggest promise of digital health real: making patients the point-of-care. Technologically, it’s absolutely viable," says Meskó.

The LTE support is less global, as it only offers bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 17 and 20. Therefore, the American customer is limited in terms of the mobile providers and services they can access.
