Pantech Duo officially announced in USA at last
October 30, 2007 [Pocket PC phone] | By Edward J. R.

Pantech is a 3rd largest mobile phone manufacturer in Korea (after Samsung and LG) and their Pantech Duo offers very unique form factor: a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and (!) a slide-out cellphone keypad in one device:



AT&T Inc. and Pantech announced today that the eagerly anticipated Pantech duo is now available in the U.S. exclusively from AT&T. The device features the convenience of both a full QWERTY and a numeric keypad in one sleek 3G device.

The Pantech duo is a global smart device that takes "cool" to a higher level in redefining form and function. Boasting an innovative dual-sliding, double-keyboard design, the Pantech duo marks a new breed of mobile handset — created to address the lifestyle needs of both business customers and consumers. In addition, the UMTS/HSDPA-enabled Pantech duo is one of the first devices in the AT&T portfolio to be powered by the Windows Mobile 6 operating system. AT&T has the broadest portfolio of Windows Mobile devices of any U.S. carrier.

"Pantech has hit a home run with the Pantech duo's trend-setting dual-sliding keyboards and other outstanding features that raise the bar in terms of looks and functionality," said Kent Mathy, president, Business Markets Group, AT&T. "AT&T business and consumer customers alike now have a device that matches their form-factor preference — whether it's a phone keypad or QWERTY keyboard — while providing an outstanding voice and data experience whether they are on the other side of town, across the country or halfway around the world."

[...]

The drop-down QWERTY keyboard is perfect for writing e-mail and editing Microsoft Word and Excel documents; the numeric keypad is ideal for sending quick texts and dialing on the run. A flip of the wrist brings users into contact with either keyboard and any mobile need. The lean design houses both keypads and a large color screen that measures only 4.02 inches tall, 1.97 inches wide and .83 inches thick.
