iriver WavePhone hits Korea ahead of schedule

Well it looks like folks in Korea may not have to wait until March to get their hands on iriver's first cellphone after all, as the WavePhone (previously known simply as the "wave") is apparently now available (or will soon be available) at ten iriver shops in the country. That limited roll-out is apparently being done ahead of the full-fledged launch including a number of larger stores, which will presumably still happen in March, although there's unfortunately still no word of a release outside of Korea (or word of a price). As you can see above, the folks at AVING also managed to get their hands on the phone and, naturally, they've provided plenty pics of it, which you can check out by hitting up the link below.

Well, at least it'll have excellent sound quality.

it really bugs me how the screen is indented in a weird place that isn't centered, and how the edges are different....

You are definitely not the only one. There is no way I could own a phone like this. I am a bit OCD about stuff like this, so that screen would drive me insane.

that's probably because it's intended to be used more as a horizontally-oriented media device with phone capability via Wi-Fi.
Speaking of which...
Mr. Melanson, this is not a cellular device. Please stop teasing the geeks.
