TORQ P175 Pocket PC
A relative unknown in the realm of phones, TORQ is nevertheless developing the P175, its latest Pocket PC. It will run Windows Mobile 5.0 on a 520MHz Intel processor, and have 64MB of RAM and 128MB of ROM; the display is a 2.7-inch QVGA model with 262,000 colors. It should also be fairly modest in the realm of connectivity, supporting just tri-band GSM, EDGE broadband and 802.11b/g; other devices will link up through Bluetooth 1.2 or USB. A miniSD slot is provided for storage, though this is mainly to save photos from the 2-megapixel camera, since there is no mention of music playback. The primary advantage of the phone is likely to be price, since TORQ expects it to retail for $250-300 at an unspecified date. [via The Boy Genius Report]
