Pretty much any  PC/Gaming enthusiast out there knows and lives by 3DMark.  Futuremark’s program for testing a system’s graphic capabilities, 3DMark will often bring even the most power gaming system to its knees with stunning visuals and amazing lighting.  The company has now released a mobile version, called 3DMark Mobile06.  They also have another benchmark aimed at general system performance called SPMark Java06, again for mobile devices. 

Sure, having some neat graphic demos to show off your 2700g is nice, but I don’t really think they’re necessary.  Although a good tool for reviewers, you can’t really tweak a PDA to the extent you can a PC, nor is stress testing for stability so much of an issue.  With that said, 3dmarkMobile is still a neat way of showing you what your little pda is capable in terms of graphics, although keep in mind that amazing graphics at a slideshow frame rate aren’t really amazing at all.
