Default Velocity Mobile Launches The 83

http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2008/...-still-boggles/

"Don't get us wrong, Velocity Mobile's new 83 is certainly a well thought out Windows Mobile 6.1 device, but with its older siblings getting grandiose names like the 103 and 111, they could have broken down and done something different. We guess the low number may be alluding to the lack of the third G, but the quad-band EDGE, GPS, WiFi, 2.8-inch screen, and dual microSD slots -- one for storage the other for maps -- mostly still makes us nod."

Velocity Mobile's newest offering doesn't look like a half bad offering, despite it's low number status. Still, lack of 3G can be a deal breaker!

To me it looks soooo 1983... Perhaps not in features, but the body design is horrible! ... I know, I know, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but no 3G is indeed a dealbreaker for many. (What are they thinking?)

September its almost over and still no 103 much less 111????

NO DICE
