There have been pen phone designs before, even a few working products, but none as slim and small as this one. While most users will connect the phone to Bluetooth earpieces, those two target-shaped areas on the top and bottom are earpiece and receiver.
However i think it's toooo small. How the hell am i suppose to read my text messages in that. And the micro SD slot? I still don't know what's it for. That phone basically can't even show pictures. But i don't know, maybe for mp3s and softwares storage. I wonder if that phone can be actually used as a pen.
Well, what do ya think?
This is Haier Black Pearl, it's actually a working mobile phone. Its length is the same as 2 of your fingers. And it's as thick as your finger too. Despite its small size, it can hold over 250 MP3 tracks (via Micro SD card slot), has a "groovy" 3D full colour graphics display on its 1.1-inch OLED screen and features FM Radio, alarm clock, calculator, games, calendar, text messaging, speed dial and USB2 connectivity.
This is Xun Chi 138. It measures only 67 mm, in length a bit longer than the AA battery and weighs only 55 grams. As with its tiny size it is impossible for a keypad so the Xun Chi 138 has touchscreen with handwriting recognition and support for 260k colors. The manufacturer has still found space to squeeze in a 1.3 Megapixel camera, USB port, WAP, GPRS, MP3 player and 138 MB of onboard memory. Maybe the next model will have a Mini SD card slot and Bluetooth.
Which one do you think is better?
Aloha!
