Benq-Siemens SL99

[MINIMALIST]

not really. You have to distinguish between concept studies and a real touchscreen phone project.

After Ruby project has been cancelled last summer, Benq Siemens continued to create concept studies of touchscreen phones, and published one project in Taiwan and won a prize.

These pictures belong to this public concept study competition (around September 2006).

I have heard numerous rumors, that almost EVERY mobile phone producers hare developping real touchscreen phones for 2008. One project is made public and "open source", like the FIC Neo 1973. FIC is a chinese notebook producer (see my signature). These devices will look more or less like in these mentioned pictures above.

Hmm, RUBY > Da Vinci > Black Box?

This flap phone lets you never get out of touch with your online applications. The hidden, 180° hinge and the frameless screens garantie both; small size in your pocket and big screen size for rich web and media experience. The 2-thumb navigation interface makes it an ease of use for all applications even on the go.
