Kinpo SP70: Pocket PC Phone Edition Running Windows Mobile 5.0
"Kinpo is a Taiwanese electronics manufacturer, which has already produced Pocket PC Phones like the S600, we reported about last year. Now the FCC's documents reveal a new Kinpo PPC, running on Windows Mobile 5.0 platform and featuring Wi-Fi. Kinpo iDo SP70 is probably the successor of the S600. It keeps its predecessor's design but improves its functionality. Unfortunately, it is still only tri-band GSM..."
Kinpo has dusted off the old S600 form factor and given it a minor upgrade. According to FCC documents, the upcoming SP70 features a Freescale i.MX21 processor, 64MB RAM, 128MB ROM, a 2.8" QVGA (240 x 320) 262K-colour touch-screen display, a 1.3-megapixel camera, USB, IrDA, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, a miniSD slot, and Windows Mobile 5.0. Yeah, not bad, yet nothing special either.

Re: Kinpo SP70: Pocket PC Phone Edition Running Windows Mobile 5.0
On close examination of the rear shot of the SP70 on the website, it seems to show very poor finishing e.g. the unit is a mockup or its been dropped!
Interestingly the bottom front edge seems to indicate symbols (e.g phone, WiFi, Camera, Recorder, BT) which I assume are indicator LED's. Nice to see a full set of harware buttons around the D Pad. Shame about the boring grey though!
