Grundig B700Thanks to MobileWhack, we’ve discovered Grundig B700. The ultra-slim, EDGE + GSM quadband, Linux powered B700 sports the full QWERTY keyboard, a 2.4″ QVGA 262K color TFT screen, FM radio and a 2 MP camera with flash light. The device has a dimensions of 105x68x10 mm and weighs only 89g. I guess, Grundig Mobile hopes that such small size and weight should justify the lack of 3G or WiFi.

The B700 comes with standard apps such as calendar, calculator, media player, alarm, email client, etc. Memory is expandable using the Micro SD card, and for connectivity you can use Bluetooth. More info is available on the product’s page.

Dusan Belic

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
