In Gigabyte
Gigabyte will unveil their Gsmart line of products at the upcoming Mobile World Congress in February. Three devices, two of them Windows Mobile powered, will be introduced with features ranging from HSDPA to TV (DVB-T, DVB-H, T-DMB) and GPS. Gigabyte’s never been popular, at least in Europe, so I don’t know why they’re even trying … but good game to them anyhow.

Just before the New Year, GIGA-BYTE Communications launched its GSmart i350 Windows Mobile 6 smartphone in Italy. What’s significant about this all-in-one device is that aside from such goodies as WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, microSD memory slot, and the built-in SiRF III GPS receiver, it also packs the full 2.6″ VGA (640×480) touchscreen!
The bad thing — there’s always the downside — is the somewhat last yearish 2 MP camera with autofocus, as well as only 64 MB of RAM. Marvell’s powerful PXA270 CPU at 520 MHz should provide users with enough processing power, though.
Finally let’s talk about the availability and pricing. In case you live in Italy and dig the GSmart i350, you’ll have to call Gigabyte’s distributor for Italy, Brightpoint, which is currently selling the device for 499 Euro.

Windows Mobile fans in Asian countries are certainly looking to Gigabyte’s GSmart i300 as one of their top picks for the future phone. The stylish, silver white colored device has everything you’ve ever need and is powerful enough, thank to the Intel’s PXA270 520 MHz processor. “Everything you need” includes a camera (2 megapixels) for taking both photos and videos, a wide array of connectivity options (Bluetooth, WiFi), and a GPS (CEO Star III). The GSmart i300 runs the latest Windows Mobile 6 and weighs only 116 g. (via: MobileWhack)

Taiwan-based Gigabyte is joining the all-touchscreen bandwagon, as the company is working on the launch of its g-Smart i+ model. The g-Smart i+ is a Windows Mobile-powered smartphone that will among other things sport built-in WiFi, a 2 MP camera, and a 2.4″ LCD.
On the other side, this is not a HSDPA-enabled device and does not run the latest Windows Mobile 6. Quite strange for the device that is about to enter the market. Still, the g-Smart i+ has dimensions of just 106.2 x 53 x 19.5 mm, weighs 130 g, and looks awesome in its stylish piano-black finish. (via: Engadget Mobile)
