Lenovo is preparing a new gaming phone for the Chinese market – i909. Similarly to utec T680 and Century Sutra 1688, Lenovo’s device also comes with the gamepad, enabling users to enjoy playing games in a more convenient manner. The i909 doesn’t support Java games — rather it relies on the built-in NES emulator, meaning users will have a huge game base at their disposal right from the start.
As for the specs, the candybar device comes with the 2.4″ 262K color QVGA TFT screen, 2 MP camera, media player and of course the microSD memory slot. The device measures 111.4×50.2×15.5 mm and has a weight of 112.8 grams.
Nice idea. I wonder when we’ll see this happening (handset makers bundling gamepads with phones) in the Western hemisphere. That could certainly help Nokia sell more NGage-enabled phones…

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.
