Here is a Phone design thats very different from the rest,its very small and has no flash features to boast about.

ESATO NEWS

There's no email, no Web browsing, no garage door opener nothing but the necessary voice in and-out functions and four simple keys, each of which lets you enter three numbers.Rock the key to the left and you've entered one number, push it downward, there's another and rock that key to the right,and you've entered another,it has a spring-loaded see through display for caller ID info,and the interesting thing its only 3.14-inches in size so i have to admit i really like this.

Too small for me! I prefer big heavy phones

Posted by axxxr
Well don't know about big and heavy?..i had those back in the early 90's and quite frankly never want to see them again!

This phone is just a no nonesense device for people who just want to make calls....i think it has potential!

cute!

don't know why they refer to caller ID, if it wouldn't be usefull without entering a name (wich the keypad is not capable of)

Posted by axxxr
I was confused at that one aswell,but maybe Caller ID is programmed externly through a PC??

It's nice, but more a novelty. I'd probably lose it very quickly, and I'm much to fond of conventional phones.

Posted by axxxr
I can see this being popular with the ladies,since the design is very compact and lipstick shape!

or some men who wear lipstick

Looks a bit fiddly doesn't it?

Posted by BobaFett
what a childish concept... way too futuristic, might be in 2120 i can imagine it

Posted by PeterKay
Not for me that type of phone, never.


Posted by Tiny
Seriously tho, if someone pulled that thing out in the street I'd scream and run away thinkin it was a knife lol

Posted by PeterKay
Wouldn't try taking that on a flight


Posted by BobaFett
@peter good point

Posted by Vein
axxxr, big and heavy such as 8800, 7610, w950i... something with a bit of weight and grasp to it!

Posted by Tiny
I bet if someone had that you'd probly get arrested a couple of times before you give up the phone lol

Caller ID is a network service that transmits the number, not the name of the caller (though some networks have that function). When someone calls you and the name is shown its just because you have their number stored in your phone and their name is associated with that number, therefore the name is shown. Though you cant really be sure that it is that person (the name showing) calling you, only the number.. right?
