CNet Asia reports: A Chinese company has launched a tiny, pricey wristphone that packs in features found in larger phones, such as a keypad, color screen and camera.
Government-run electronics conglomerate CEC (China Electronics Corporation) has released the mobile phone, designed for China's CDMA 1x network.
Several Chinese Web sites are currently taking orders for the F88. The retail price of the device on cellular enthusiast Web site 139shop.com is US$1,158.
The F88 measures just 38.3 x 76.7 x 17 cm, excluding wrist band, and comes with voice dialing, four minutes of voice recording, 16 polyphonic ring tones and a world clock. A small keypad has been fitted to the wristband.
A wired earpiece is worn on the finger like a ring. To listen to the call, the ring is held up to the ear. However, a more conventional wireless infrared earphone or wired earpiece is also available.
There is a small 256-color STN color display on the device, which also has a removable 300,000 pixel camera that can rotate 180 degrees vertically.
The F88 is WAP-enabled and CEC claims a talk time of up to 120 minutes and a stand-by time of up to 100 hours for the F88 with the 600mAh battery. The device weighs 100 grams with the battery.

Nice design! Wonder where they got it from  (as Vlamm mentioned). No I can't see myself with one either...

Well it does look like a T68 but the whole concept looks great.

well I dunno why I couldn't get to it from the office PCs but the P900 had no trouble.
Yeah, it does look a little like the T68i but not what I would really call a wrist phone.
This is what I call a watch phone (it was a Sony too, at comdex)
This did remind me that 21 years ago I had the Seiko TV watch so its surprising we don't see more of those now, or indeed more wrist phones

The Sony wrist phone looks more elegant I must say.

it was a concept but shows my thoughts of what a wrist phone should look like (although maybe a few more buttons)

Works with me . . . gadgets are really getting 'hi-tech' everytime. It has never entered my wildest imagination that one day, we will be virtually living (the realms) the likes of Star Trek and Star Wars ! |
