3GSM World Congress 2005 coverage: comparative photo review of Peabody phone platform of Flextronics
February 18, 2005 [MS Smartphone] | By Edward J. R.

Peabody is a reference design (phone platform) conceived by Flextronics to offer a base for very cheap (no Bluetooth but 1.3 megapixel camera included) Microsoft smartphone phones.
