The initial handset available at the introduction is the izenMobile Krma™, which combines pocket pc functionality with a smart phone form factor. Additional handsets will be introduced throughout the year, with up to seven models available at a time."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/ekkie_izenmobile_200610.jpg" /><br /><br />Okay, forget for a moment that the Photoshop'd image indicates this device is running Windows Mobile 2003 SE instead of Windows Mobile 5 (hopefully this isn't the case). The idea of having Pocket PC functionality in the form factor of a phone is really what I've been waiting for personally. It's not clear yet how izenMobile plans to market this to consumers; their primary target audience appears to be small-to-medium businesses with their combination of hardware, customized applications, 24x7 support, and ASP-type hosting services. Overall their idea is to become all-purpose provider of mobile solutions. Details on their website are scant at the moment, so contact them directly if you need more information.
