i-mobile's 309 DDZ musicphone


Our pal Michael Sommer just hooked us up with the 309 DDZ, a compact new musicphone being sold in Thailand by an outfit called i-mobile. Of course, it's not hard to keep the size down when you leave out all the internal memory (there's a TransFlash memory card slot for storing all your tunes), but even so, we weren't entirely convinced that this thing was both an MP3 player and a cellphone until we we popped out the battery to reveal an honest-to-goodness SIM card slot. Not likely to turn up over here anytime soon, but for what it's worth the 309 DDZ does also sport an FM tuner, a proper 3.5mm headphone jack, and a jog dial on the side for navigation.
