Hands-on with the i-mate 8502 and 9502

We saw these fellas announced this morning so thought it only reasonable to get down to i-mate's booth here at CTIA and get some shots of the 8502 and 9502. First thing we noticed about these handsets was the top shelf build quality and high-end heft factor -- if you're not feeling it both of these look and feel like a million bucks. The booth was positively swarming with curious onlookers peeking at the video out demonstration that these two were putting on and to their credit, both handsets looked grand on big plasma screens. Check the gallery for some more i-mate candy.

Any chance of some booth photos? I'd like to see what it looks like on a big display.

What's the deal with not using transreflective screen these days? They don't make them in this size?

That phone makes me feel good for some reason.
