There already has been some buzz about this phone since January and I’m very happy this thing is going to come out. As I previously mentioned before I’m an avid Microsoft fanboy and loathe Apple fanboys. I just think it gets super annoying when Apple product owners thinks their product is elite. Not to get off the topic, this on paper seems to be a real legit Apple iPhone competitor (I won’t say killer, like other people). This bad boy will come packed with a 667MHz ARM11 CPU, 128MB of RAM, GSM connectivity, 3.4-inch (720 x 480) VGA touchscreen, video output, built-in Bluetooth 2.0 / WiFi and in 4GB, 8GB and 16GB flavors. This of course all running Windows Mobile (CE) 6 kernel with a real Applesque interface. I believe this phone is a real competitor since it will have all the good looking interface like the iPhone but also provides the corporate users the ability for push and exchange email support. Mike the other blogger will probably disagree with me that this phone will compete since he himself is an iPhone owner where as I am sporting a Treo 700wx (gotta love Windows Mobile). I actually like having a lot of different phones choices to choose from and it would be a shame if all the people just had iPhones. Write some comments on how you guys feel!
Fan boys suck, haha. That being said, this phone seems pretty legit. It seems it could actually be as sweet as the iPhone. I like that it also has a 16GB model, but its starting to seem remoting into your home PC is the way to go, so HD space doesn’t matter. Although I do have to question the design, it seems to resemble hmmm oh yeah THE IPHONE!!! I guess when you can’t beat em’ join em’.
Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. Still, the more competition, the better. Atari was an imitator, but it turned out to be a great system and I really don’t care about the brand as much as the combination of price and performance (functionality).
[...] is the same company that is releasing the iPod competitor the m8, check my other blog about the specs. This seems to be a great deal with a 2Gb, 4Gb and 8Gb running $100, $110, $150. It should be [...]
