i-mate to show new phones at GITEX 2007 in Dubai but start of sales still uncertain August 24, 2007 [General] | By Edward J. R. GITEX trade show that takes place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where i-mate is headquartered, was used also in past for i-mate to announce new phones. However here in a related story i-mate claims also, that it will release 12 phones in 12 months.
(on photo above Jim Morrison, CEO of i-mate, with ultra-slim i-mate Smartflip smartphone - posing exclusively to msmobiles.com during one of the trade shows) CEO of i-mate is Scottish and in Scotland there is nothing wrong with being clever, so long as you show it by words or actions, rather than by bragging (*) but by now potential i-mate customers have seen bragging and bragging only... so announcing new phones at GITEX is not enough - they must be available for purchase too! Some quotes: i-mate will launch 12 new smart phones in the next 12 months [...] As a Dubai-based company, i-mate will use the Gitex IT exhibition as its largest marketing event of the year, said Craine, especially as Middle East revenues represent roughly 30 per cent of its global sales. Three of the new phones - the Ultimate 6150, Ultimate 8150 and the Urban 201, featuring a QWERTY-based keyboard - will be displayed at Gitex. i-Mate will also promote its new online service and support portal during the event.
