curved capacitive touch screen, led buttons, & new-fangled RF dataport thingy… To make this with today’s technology, it’d be the size of a DynaTAC 8000X!

nice design though. I’d love a phone with those screen dimensions.

I think it’s called photoshopping or something like that.

> I don’t get it. What is so special about this phone. No keyboard. No camera flash. No internal specs of any kind. What is so great about this. No external buttons (whatever) who cares. Another touch screen only device. Who cares. this thing at least needs an fm tuner.

Geek-wannabe alert?

Solid,
It’s shiny. That would be about it.
Apparently we’re being dealt a grave injustice because our phones aren’t “cool”. It’s in the constitution, after all, “Life, Liberty, cool phones…” it’s in there somewhere.

You also don’t get that this is a CONCEPT device… how would you know this wouldn’t end up with a flash? How do you know that? And being a concept, how on earth could there possibly be any “internal specs” at this point?

And screw hard keyboards, more weight, moving parts, fatter phone, more things to go wrong, break ect. Bigger screens mean bigger on screen landscape keyboards, easier to type on, no big deal. I’m just hoping we see a device like this soon, and something like whether this has a FM tuner or not I doubt will be a deal breaker for most people when we see the rest of it, that is if it ever even happens.

It’s very simple people want a slick looking phone and a slick UI Android needs better animations.

I’m nursing a semi! That’s a sweet looking phone.

The touch screen is curved… is that viable with today’s technology?

Considering the G1 I don’t think they’ll be able to make it that thin and have any sort of battery life.

@solid

It’s just slick looking. The reason there’s no specs is it’s just a concept phone, it’s not real. (at least not yet!) If it did get made, it could easily be shit or it could be an iPhone killer. Most likely somewhere in between. I agree it would be nice to have a camera flash, but I’m not sold on the necessity of a physical keyboard. I’m pretty proficient with the iPhone on-screen keyboard, it works pretty well.

Honestly I think the U.S. is getting the really short end of the stick where phones are concerned. I want phones like this if the technology is out there.

The G1 is a piece of crap compared to this. What the heck is “their” problem?!

Why does HTC REFUSE to make an Android phone like this ? They’ve had how many chances now ?

Look at the UI on it, it looks different. Anyone want to tell me if thats a theme or something?
