Touchscreen is the craze these days and Casio has the iPhone to thank for coming up with their new concept. Although we have seen such a concept in the Sony Ericsson P990 series some years back, it seems that new phones today require it if they want to be noticed.

Casio may not be a major player in the mobile business but it has its own device competing for positioning. The Casio CA001 is a touchscreen phone that also allows keypad interface as well.

The Casio CA001 looks like a typical clam shell phone or a touchscreen input phone. It also features a 5 megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and a microSD slot. Buttons along the side of the phone suggest that Casio is gearing up for the music capabilities of this phone. It is also capable of wireless music playback with the right headphones.
