Philips Presents: X800 TouchScreen Cellphone

In these past few weeks there was a "rumor" or a "buzz" about Philips and her new xenium cellphone that is about to give a serious fight against apple's iPhone.

Philips announced that they're new X800 cellphonw will have a "e2e" (edge-to-edge)touchscreen, 256K colors, just like apple's.
Some of the features; the X800 have are a enabled Wi-Fi, browser, orientation sensor (familiar someone?)



















Works on a GSM Network, has a size of: 240 x 400 pixels, Polyphonic (64 channels) audio speaker, has vibration, bluetooth, USB and a camera of: 2 MP, 1600x1200 pixels.

But, this iPhone wannabe has something really missing - he'll not be a 3G cellphone.
And besides the Dutch company is pushing all its efforts on the asian/far east market — don't rush to buy or even to see this X800 on the U.S anytime soon.





















Philips still has no release date on the X800 neither a price.
