Windows Phone Thoughts: CeBit America 2004: Preliminary Press Event Peek

The intrepid Suhit over at Digital Media Thoughts has managed to get himself a press pass to CeBit America. As you might imagine, he took many photos of a plethora of interesting devices (a veritable cornicopia, if you will). :) First up, the Motorola MPx, which looks much more usable now that they've ditched the freakish curvy black and white keyboard:



"I finally get to touch the Motorola MPX. Two words - I want. However, it is a little bigger than I expected. To some extent, I might even want the Nokia 9500. But still, the MPX is so pretty." OQO was there as well, showing off their Model 01, which is apparently being tested by 40 corporations (read: potential customers) at this very moment. Here's a photo to slake your thirst:



There's also news on the SanDisk front: "There were far too many people around the Sandisk booth so I really did not get a chance to chat with anyone. I did however get a roadmap from both Sandisk and SD Card Association and apparently the 2GB SD card is right around the corner, i.e. probably end of Q3 this year." From everything I've been hearing, this show is a bit sparse. Let's hope that a few more companies cough up a few more tasty devices at the real event tomorrow...
