Remember we told you the Asus P565 will be killed and buried now that Asus and Garmin have wedded to produce a different breed of supercellphones?  Well, seems like its fast 816MHz processor somehow helped it escape the axe as ASUSPDA, a Polish were able to buy it online and have a complete unboxing and review to show that the device is far from dead and a great phone worthy enough to continue a long life.  They did have a few grumbles about Glide, ASUS’ TouchFLO-esque interface, which did not seem to mirror its fast processor, but its skill in other areas including a pretty fast GPS and its lively 2.8-inch VGA display had the reviewers getting over that fact without much grief.

The Asus P565 is available now for a cool $567 from QBit’s webstore and if you don’t want to buy it before you try it, check out their short-term prepaid renting scheme.
