E-TEN's products are normally re-branded but in the case of the X800 (which was previously named the X600), the company has decided to make a push with its own brand name - Glofiish - being emblazoned on this Windows Mobile 6 wireless PDA.
In addition to supporting 3G/GSM, this device also offers Wi-Fi, GPS and Bluetooth - all in one unit. The new VGA (640x480) display offers up to four times the resolution of previous E-TEN handsets.
Thanks to support for both HSDPA and WiFi, this Pocket PC phone is ideal for VoIP (Internet telephony), video streaming video and video calling. It has a standard front mounted VGA camera as well as an auto-focus two megapixel camera at the rear.
Being Windows Mobile 6 based, the phone will come with the Beast's 'Windows Live
for Windows Mobile' suite which incorporates web search, email, instant messaging and blogging.
According to E-TEN chairman, Hwang Shan-rong, the market for this kind of PDA should reach between 100 million and 200 million in 2007. The X800 is du out in Q2 2007. µ
