UTStarcom releases the DV007 camcorder phone along the lines of the Nokia N90 and Nokia N93 with swivelling lcd

UTStarcom has rolled out their new DV007 camcorder phone. The clamshell twists for recording pictures and video – like Nokia’s N93. The UTStarcom DV007 is powered by an Intel processor running a Linux OS. That’s right folks, this little sucker runs Linux – so all you Linux modders can get crazy with this thing! Aside from the stunning, metallic-look body, the DV007 sports a 2 megapixel camera, 40MB onboard memory, microSD slot, and tri-band (900/1800/1900Mhz) GSM radio – all in a 97 x 51 x 19 mm body.

We know it ain’t no Nokia N93, or even an N90 (the DV007′s 2 megapixel shooter doesn’t have the N90′s Carl Zeiss optics), but at the $140USD price point that it’s currently selling for in Hong Kong, it’s a great bang-for-your-buck handset.

    i bought this item 2 weeks ago, this cell phone turns heads around everytime i show it, a lot of features, to send mms you need to put images in 640×480 scale, although i did´nt buy it as cheap as 140 USD, but still is a great mobile phone rarely seen in south america.
