ASUS J502 phone
Having only released the J501 three months ago, ASUS has already announced an improved version, the J502. The new phone enlarges screen size from 2.2 to 2.4 inches, and also upgrades the camera, which is now a three-megapixel model with flash. Other planned features include video recording, MP3 and AAC/AAC+ playback, and up to 3.5 hours of talk time; built-in memory is limited to 24MB, but the phone does have a microSD slot. There are no dates and prices attached to the 502, but since it is just a tri-band GSM model without broadband, it is essentially guaranteed to remain outside North America. [via Unwired View]
