Kogan’s Agora and Agora Pro hinted at last month is now ready to roll, costing AU$299 and AU$399, and shipping on January 29th. The Agora Pro’s specs are as follows:

  • Operating System: Android™

  • Display: 2.5-inch TFT-LCD flat touch-sensitive screen with 262K QVGA (320 X 240 pixel) resolution
  • Device Control: 5-Way Central Navigation Key
  • Keyboard: QWERTY keyboard, backlighting
  • GPS: GPS navigation capability with Google Maps™
  • Connectivity: Bluetooth® 2.0 with Enhanced Data Rate, Wi-Fi®: IEEE 802.11b/g

  • Weight: 130g
  • Battery: Rechargeable Lithium-ion battery, 1300 mAh
  • Talk Time: Up to approximately 400 minutes
  • Standby Time: Up to approximately 300 hours
  • Processor: 624 MHz
  • Memory: 256 MB On-board + 128 MB Flash, microSD™ card expansion slot
  • Network: UMTS/HSDPA (850, 1900, 2100 MHz), GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)

The standard Agora model simply lacks Wi-Fi and GPS, but still has 3G. Not a bad-looking device all around, although a little more traditional than the G1. There’s bound to be a Jack/BlackBerry/Moto Q crowd out there curious to see what Android’s like, and a handset like this makes the transition easier. Hopefully this will act as a cue to other manufacturers to get their Android hardware in gear.
