Philips X800 approved by the FCC *UPDATE*

Don’t know about you, but I like the new/upcoming Philips X800. Yes, it looks very familiar / iPhone-ish, but this time Philips may have a global winner — it’s not hard to imagine this baby selling like hot cupcakes, if priced correctly.
Specs wise, the GSM/GPRS (900/1800/1900 MHz) + EDGE device sports a 2.9-inch WQVGA (240×400 pixels) 256K colors touchscreen, stereo Bluetooth (A2DP) support, and a microSD memory expansion slot. On the down side, though, the X800 lacks WiFi and 3G. It’s kinda strange when you think it should compete with the iPhone, though to be fair, it’s Philips’ first such device and I guess they’ll license the right technology for the next version.
Finally, if Philips could be that kind to send us a review unit, that would be awesome. In the meantime, all we have is FCC filling which showed us the images above.

Well, no Wifi, 3G, or EDGE? Maybe they figured this would be a data free media device or something? Or maybe it will introduce some other sort of technology? Who knows, I guess we will find out when theres more info on the device. But hey, all in all, its a good lookin Phone none the less!
thanks..
As a person, who used philips diga (in 1998),Philips genie (1999) and many other models, I can assure you that Philips wont let you down. The speech clarity and reception I enjoyed with Philips spark was amazing. Somehow, Philips could nt establish a name in the cellphone market. Lets see what this stuff is really like. Seems fantastic.
