Curitel has released the P1 candy bar style handset to Korea, I know Korea is far away, but Curitel has managed to supply a couple million phones to Verizon Wireless, the actual reality of this type of handset coming to Europe or North America just got brighter.
Aside from the impressive 1.9-inch large LCD display, 2 megapixel CCD camera with built-in flash, auto focusing and 9 shot continuous shooting mode, the P1’s TTS functionality will allow for almost any type of text message to be heard. From multimedia appliances sending you messages, to everyday emails, the P1’s voice synthesis software will convert the message into an audible voice for you to hear. This is all possible because of the MSM 6100 chip, it stores a 28,000 word Electronic Dictionary including definitions and pronunciations and capable of speech synthesis, all packed into a 15.8mm handset.

nice, but it looks more like they have taken a camera, and put an antenna and phone functions in it

I agree the phone would look a lot better without external antennae, but there must be a reason for having it external, im sure they wouldnt have had it external if they could have avoided it.
Do we know any details of the phone part itself? How do the menu systems work? Is it symbian? Does it use a standard digital camera memory card?

my LG has an external antennae, its the smallest 3g phone on the market, there was simpy no room inside the phone to put one in! They can take up quite a bit of room, you know...
