First rumors about Microsoft smartphone made by Sagem available (it is Mitac!)
March 16, 2004 [MS Smartphone] | By anonymous 1.
Sagem (a French cell phone vendor) is restarting cooperation with Microsoft and is about to show - at the CeBIT trade show (that starts this week on Thursday) - a cell phone powered by Microsoft smartphone 2003. Why restarting? Because Sagem already previously was one of the first vendors producing Microsoft powered cell phones - the Sagem WA 3050, that is powered by Pocket PC operating system, was on sale alread a couple of years ago. Here is some information about the new Sagem smartphone powered by Microsoft Smartphone 2003 software:
- target market: low end customers, rather than business users - low price compared to other smartphones (!)
- cellular: GSM tri-band (GSM900/GSM1800/GSM1900) and GPRS
- processor: Intel XScale 200 MHz
- RAM memory: 32 MB
- camera with VGA resolution
- camera sensor: CMOS (not CCD)
- video-recording in MPEG4 format
- typical for MS Smartphone phones: 176x220 display with 64 thousands of colors
- no built-in Java
- support for ring tones in formats MIDI, WAV, MP3, WMA
- the phone will be manufactured for Sagem by Taiwanese corporation Mitac (maker of MIo 8380 and Mio 8390 smartphones)
More information (in Czech language) and some photos of this smartphone are here.
