The PG2000: Motorola MING-alike for PHS networks

by Chris Ziegler, posted Aug 21st 2007 at 10:51AM

Don't be fooled -- not only is this not a real MING, it's also not a Motorola and you probably won't be able to use it in your neck of the woods. The PG2000 takes come cues from the Moto A1200 but adds PHS support in addition to a dualband GSM radio, making it perfect for the unusual standard that sees some love in Asian nations. Features include a QVGA touchscreen, MMC slot (huh?), 2 megapixel camera, and we're guessing some variant of Linux, just like the real deal. No word on pricing or availability, though it got shown around at the 2007 Taipei Computer Applications Show -- so if you happen to be around Taiwan, you might just get a glimpse of it.
