SK Teletech is the first handset maker in the world to launch silver-nano coated mobile phones with sterilizing function, the company announced Tuesday.
The company’s new model IM-7400 is a 1.1-megapixel CCD camera phone coated with nanometer (1 billionth of a meter) – sized silver particles that are effective at attacking pathogens and deodorizing.
The anti-germ and anti-odor silver-coating has been applied to home appliances such as TV’s, washing machines and vacuum cleaners but not to handsets until IM-7400, the company added.
Besides, the semi-automatic slide phone is equipped with 180-degree swiveling camera and the industry-largest 100 MB memory. The company explained, “According to a recent study, a handset is inhabited by 25,000 bacteria on average. But, IM-7400 users would never have to worry about them.”

The phone looks a little reminiscent of the  S700, and not sure about the germ-thingy.
We all need a certain level of bugs in our life, so we build up a resistance to infections and other bugs. If we lived in too sterile an envirnonment it would actually be bad for us I believe!
