I love all things mobile from Sharp. Although we don't hear much about the company here in the States (other than alarm clocks and microwaves), Sharp lays the smack down in Asia and Europe. I currently have a Sharp GX30 and despite it being nearly two years old, it's feature set still eclipses almost all phones available here in America. In fact, it's CG Silicon Screen is by far still the best I've seen, equaled only by some Sony Ericsson and Samsung phones.
In Asia, they just announced a sweet looking PDA Phone. LISTEN UP BLACKBERRY AND TREO, this is how a PDA phone is supposed to look and function. Dubbed the W-ZERO3, it's a slider with a huge 3.7 inch VGA touchscreen LCD. Behind the screen lives a QWERTY keyboard and behind the keyboard is a 1.3 megapixel camera. Equipped with 128 MB of memory, an Intel PXA270 416Mhz processor, WiFi, bluetooth, usb and a miniSD slot for additional memory. The whole thing runs off Windows Mobile 5.0 which is a plus and the included apps have full POP3 and SMTP email capability. It's sleek, a lot thinner and Sharp is known for very good battery life.
Although the phone operates only in Asia, it does possess the hardware necessary to work over here in America. I hope it shows up on our shores soon.
