Engadget: Hands-on with the Qool QDA Glider
"The Glider is a quad-band Windows Mobile device with a sliding keypad, a 195MHz OMAP850 core, 2.8 inch touchscreen, Bluetooth 1.2, WiFi, EDGE data, and a 2 megapixel cam. This is a solid device and we absolutely loved the red backlit touch-controls mounted on the face. The QDA Icon is touted as the world's slimmest PDA phone with a 4 megapixel camera, and as such, it was given props with an Innovations honour at CES. The touchscreen QDA Icon is available in either dual-band GSM 900 / 1800 or 900 / 1900 versions, with the grunt delivered by a 200MHz OMAP730. Sadly, the only data options are Class 10 GPRS, Bluetooth 1.2 and USB -- no EDGE or HSDPA here."
The QDA Icon isn't new, but the QDA Glider most certainly is, and while it may not pack a lot of punch, you simply cannot say no to the design. Then again, it's an acquired taste, so you may have a different opinion.

I'd like to see a dial pad on the bezel and of course a bigger screen.
