Lenovo's ET980 Pocket PC Phone hits four megapixels

Normally we'd just skip right over yet another random Pocket PC Phone, especially one that is almost definitely not going to find its way over here, but Lenovo's new ET980 stands out from the crowd because it just happens to sport a built-in four megapixel digital camera. Not the biggest or baddest you can do in a cellphone (that honor goes to Samsung's seven megapixel SCH-V770), but this is the highest resolution you can get in a Windows Mobile device, at least for the time being. Can't vouch for image quality (why do we have this feeling that the optics on this thing are for crap?), but the ET980 has a 312MHz processor, 64MB of RAM, and 128MB of flash ROM.

Since it probably won't end up in America, I won't slight them for not using some sort of ThinkPad branding. ThinkPad Lite? mini ThinkPad? ThinkSmallerPad?

Why must foreign countries torture me so?

Sorry, can't bring myself to buy products that bring profit to the Chinese government. Oh wait, since everything is made in China I guess I'm stuck, huh?

Name it the IBM ThinkPhone?

Bill you are a complete idiot. Do you really think the Chinese government is making this product?

[Bill @ Dec 19th 2005 12:20AM]

Wow name caller, how very civilized of you. Somebody could use some manners.

Last I heard China was communist. You don't think the Chinese government has an interest in Lenovo?
