Figured this would happen. Windows Mobile 6 is coming out, so are cell phone makers going to use it to make lower-cost-but-smarter mobile comm devices...or are they going to use it as an excuse to make Windows versions of the iPhone and charge all us lemmings a bundle for them?
Well, if it's E-Ten Communications' turn to speak, then it's definitely the latter as evidenced by their newly announced and desperately-named Glofiish X800 (not a misspelling). Quad-band, tablet-style, 640-by-480 display, 3.5G-compatible, Bluetooth 2, WiFi, built-in GPS, and a 2 megapixel digi-cam with zoom and autofocus. They're billing it as an 'ultra-thin' but judging by the photos, I'm not sure that's accurate.
Cost? $850 $900 depending on model, available in Q2. Showing at CeBit if you happen to be over there.
