Amoi Launches Low-Cost Windows Mobile Devices
Posted by Darius Wey in "HARDWARE" @ 02:00 PM
"At the ITU Telecom World 2006 event in Hong Kong, Amoi Electronics showcased four of its upcoming smart phone devices which it claims will be affordably priced to target the mass market audience. The first of the four smart phones, the Amoi E72, will retail in China for less than US$250. This, according to press release, makes it one of the lowest-priced Windows Mobile smart phones in the China market. Prices for the other three smart phones - the Amoi E75, E76 and E78 - are expected to be announced at a later date."
Amoi (not Amoy), the company behind the almost unheard-of E850, has unveiled four new GSM/GPRS/EDGE-enabled Windows Mobile 5.0-based devices (E72, E75, E76, and E78) with TI OMAP CPUs and Bluetooth - with the E72 tagged with a recommended retail price of less than $250 USD. It's uncertain whether any of these are Pocket PC Phones. The (obviously, Photoshopped) image of the E78 (above) seems to suggest that it's a Pocket PC, though the press release indicates otherwise.
