Images of the Sky IM-U200
Pantech's high-end Korean division, Sky, has let slip images of its latest cellphone, the IM-U200. The device marks a radical departure from even the likes of the R200 or the IM-U170, since it is perhaps the only phone in the world which closes by twisting -- allowing the main screen to remain visible. In theory, at least, this could provide a more compact way of watching video.
The 200 also has an unusual numberpad, with raised concentric rings that may make it easier to "feel" buttons without accidentally hitting a divider. No other information is available, despite the fact that the phone is expected to launch this month. Click below for both available images. [via Akihabara News]
