Hello Kitty
phones
29/11/2006
Yes, we're overdue for some Kitty lurve here at Gadget Buzz. So
here're some handsets for the fans, courtesy of blog site Popgadget
and manufactured by Taiwan firm OKWAP. Surprisingly, these pack a
wallop in features, despite the tendency to pooh-pooh the phones as
Sanrio collectors' dribble.
The A268Kitty may appeal more to the sweet 16
crowd, but it reportedly comes with dual
color screens, an onboard camera and bilingual
dictionary.

The A236Kitty, on the other hand, slides out to reveal a keypad, touchscreen and
stylus. Not bad for something that looks like a toy.

Also spotted was the A279Kitty which, despite its
"don't' take me seriously" façade, is seriously featured with a
pedometer, bilingual dictionary, MP3
player, camera, FM tuner, 100MB onboard memory, and a strip of LED
lights on the front panel which acts like Scientific Oregon's
projection clocks. This one lets
you type a short message where waving your phone will activate the
Wave Messaging feature and display your text in the air. How
cool is that? And what would the celebrity feline be without
matching phone charms, pouches and wallpapers bundled with the
phones? Comes pretty in pink, naturally!
