Th A5***S will be available from December/January on the AU network (CDMA20001x 144kbps d/l, 64kbps u/l)

http://diary.cgiboy.com/d01/hekoming/index.cgi?y=2002&m=3

It has a 65k colour display, and an illumination light, which should light up in 12 diff colours, depending on the caller.

310k pixel camera, capable of shooting 15 second video clips, with sound.

MagicGate Memory stick Duo storage, maybe it can play MP3 as well (don't know).

My question is, why don't

release this phone in Europe? It would be cheaper, as they would only need one production plant, right?

Samsung have released many CDMA20001x handsets in Europe, by just changing the chipset to GSM. They are now the number 3 manufacturer in Europe (and I am sure they are number 2 in the UK.)

Why can't

learn from this?

Sorry, the pics don't show up in the forum.

That is one funky-looking phone, but the video function is cool!

that phone is a result of a cooperation between

and the Japanese network provider, they gave

the info on what the phone should contain and some things about the design and

built the phone... it might be released in other countries as well...
