It features a full QWERTY keyboard, 2 mega pixel camera, Windows Mobile OS, landscape oriented QVGA screen, 260 MHz OMAPV1030 CPU, measures 115×62×12.7 mm and weighs 131 grams. It actually looks quite nice too (a bit of Nokia 6300 style)."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/martin-20080115-AMOI_E78.jpg" /><br /><br />ZOL, a Chinese technology site, has the goods on the <a href="http://detail.zol.com.cn/cell_phone/index112811.shtml">AMOI E78</a>. The WM5 GSM phone will also have GPS according to their <a href="http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&langpair=zh-CN%7Cen&u=http://zhishi.zol.com.cn/detail/57/6/525_1.html">translated review here</a>. Though a <a href="http://mobile.zol.com.cn/77/777711.html">post at ZOL</a> indicates it may be rebranded as the SPV E610, most photos of this also yet-to-be-released phone are significantly different, as shown on <a href="http://shop.orange.co.uk/shop/show/talksharehandsets/small_business/all/all/coming_soon?WT.svl=206">Orange's UK Business site</a> as "coming soon".

Yeah before I even read the text I thought "Wow, that looks just like my Nokia 6300", which I love by the way.

WM5?!

I hope that's a typo!

I was surprised as well. That's what I'm seeing being reported. If it is WM5, hopefully there will be a quick and free upgrade.
