ORSiO Pocket PC phone in the pipeline

by Chris Ziegler posted Jul 30th 2006 at 9:59PM

If you're wondering just who or what ORSiO might be, you're not alone -- but let's not get caught up in the details. Some rather fuzzy shots of spec sheets have been leaked, and it looks like we can expect fairly typical non-3G Pocket PC Phone Edition fare: quad-band GSM plus EDGE, 2.7-inch QVGA display, 2-megapixel shooter, 192MB of internal flash plus miniSD expansion, and a beefy 524MHz XScale to keep it all humming along atop Windows Mobile 5. MSMobileNews is reporting AKU3 will be in the box, but we beg to differ -- the feature list pretty clearly indicates AKU2. (Way to get us all excited, guys.) And a little tip to our anonymous sources: 5 megapixels would do wonders for those covertly-acquired shots.

The screen shot looks like WM 2003SE. No two hardkeys nor softkeys. Has the "New" menu still. i dont get it. so is the picture wrong or are the specs for this device wrong?

Whoever wrote that it is Quad-band is wrong. If you look at the so-called spec sheet you clearly see Tri-band.

The problem is if the shots are too good, or give too much detail, they could be fired.

So we'll continue to have to put up with blurry shots until such a day that NDAs don't exist.

Hey guys,

The discrepencies between the grainy spec sheet and the specs we quoted on MSMobileNews.com only came about because we quoted the specs that we were "told" and not the specs that we "saw". Make your own minds up, I know I haven't yet :P
