Kyocera The Slider Sonic Cell Phone
Kyocera launched the new Slider Sonic music phone, directly aimed at the plethora of music-capable phones like Motorola Rokr and the Nokia 3250.
It comes with a 32MB microSD card, standard 3.5mm stereo headphones (thank god), and to help transfer files, a USB cable. Incorporating some of the hot-selling goodies like camera (although it's just VGA right now), video recording capabilities, MP3 and WMA playback, it comes with a 1.9" display and claims of 3.7 hours of talk time.
Convergence is the buzz word, there's no denying that. Kyocera could have, however, included a higher-resolution camera. At the current market situation, it really doesn't make sense to include just a VGA res camera anymore, unless you are targeting for mass market consumers.
Slated for an October release for $249.99, it will be available at Virgin Mobile's website. More info is available at Kyocera's website.
