Shenzhen, China-based smartphone design company Tranzda Technologies is marketing five phone designs that use its NewPlus Linux phone application stack. All five Tranzda designs include GPS, along with optional features that include WiFi, cameras, and biometric fingerprint authentication.

Tranzda's phone models include:


TGP-369 -- Based on an ARM9-based Samsung S3C2440 clocked at 300-400MHz, with 64MB SDRAM and 64MB flash memory. The phone supports CDMA 2000 1X (450/800/1900MHz) transmission, as well as SMS, Color E SMS, and Cai E formats, says Tranzda. The phone has a 2.8-inch, 240 x 320 QVGA TFT LCD touchscreen, as well as a MiniSD Card slot and a USB port. Major features include WiFi, GPS, and a 1.3Mpixel camera. Multimedia support includes WMA, MP3, MIDI, AMR, AAC, and MMF audio playback, and MPEG-1, MPEG-4, DIVX, XVID, and H.23 video. The phone weighs 5.3 ounces (150 grams) and is powered by a 3.7 Volt rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery.


TFX-326 -- Identical to the TGP-369 except that instead of CDMA, it supports EDGE/Quad-Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz). It also offers a RFID (radio frequency ID) expansion option.


TGP-802 -- Identical to the TGP-369, but supports GSM/GPRS Tri-Band (900/1800/1900 MHz), and like the TFX-326 supports a RFID option. More notably, it offers biometric fingerprinting, says Tranzda.


Tranza TFX-320 -- Supports EDGE/Quad-Band GSM like the TFX-326, but instead of using the Samsung processor, it is based on an "AV115" processor. Possibly a multi-chip module (MCM), the AV115 is said to combine ARM9 and ARM7 cores with a DSP (digital signal processor). No RFID option

No!!! It's not a step forward. It's ONE GREAT LEAP instead.

LOL. You hit the nail right on the head, dude.
from my observations, sometimes it's better off not knowing.

I'd like to see the phones up close though. I bet they have stupid things like 'Multimedia' or 'Photocamera' printed on them.
