South Korea-based BlueBird is showcasing its PIDION BM-500, a classic looking CDMA with EVDO Windows Mobile-based smartphone at the CEBIT in Hanover, Germany.

In terms of specs, the PIDION BM-500 sports Bluetooth, WLAN and a beautiful 2.8″ touchscreen. What it lacks is a better camera, and the new Windows Mobile 6.
