The Freedom 2010 by Vadim Kibardin
Wow, I like it when cutting-edge designs for devices appear – some make it to market, and some don’t – let’s hope this one gets a look in….
The Freedom 2010 Handset is designed by Vadim Kibardin (check out his site here), and is a small prepay phone that comes with 60, 100, or 200 minutes of credit. Apparently you don’t have to worry about roaming, and it charges in 10 minutes. Given it’s so small, clearly the carriage is no issue either. As you might have spotted, no screen, therefore it just makes and receives calls. However, basic functionality, for a time when you might just need it, isn’t to be sniffed at. Back-up phones are never a bad idea!

About The Author
Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
