The Hummer phone gets real
Looks like the French electronics company Modelabs will be reported making a handset specifically for Hummer. Nope, from all respects, this new won't be made by any "famous maker" with just Hummer stickers or something. No sir, this baby packs some respectable specs and the only knock we see if lack of 3G data. Full specs after the break. the market demographics for civilian Hummer vehicles are pretty macho and all that, so this handset, understandably, has that same feel from just looking at photos of it (yes, it's made of "premium materials"). We'll see if it has that "tank" feeling once we have one in out mitts -- hopefully soon. A summary of features includes: GSM / GPRS / EDGE (eww), 262K color touchscreen with virtual keyboard, microSD slot, MP3 player and FM radio and a weight of 100 grams.
HUMMER to launch mobile phones and accessories
If you're a luxury HUMMER driver, you'll be glad to know that while all that power is feeding your inner need, you can have a customized mobile environment to go along with that frost white H2. HUMMER and Modelabs Group out of Paris have agreed to to design, produce, market and distribute a line of mobile phones, accessories and on-device services. The cool branding thing is that all these devices and phones will exist under the HUMMER brand just to ensure you don't forget who's signing the R&D checks. HUMMER says that Modelabs -- a global expert in mobile device customization -- will ensure that these units and devices will be developed to be durable and high performance -- along with carrying HUMMER's rugged design. Distribution? We thought you'd like to know that. Try Europe, Eastern Europe, Russia, North America -- including Canada and the U.S. -- and South America. Dates? second quarter of 2007.
