Do you think these phones are right around the corner? Maybe some will make it to T-Mo USA??



2. Nokia Aeon

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/nokia_aeon.jpg
Nokia Aeon (http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/nokia-aeon-touchscreen-concept) was presented by Nokia on their website in the Research & Development section. What is so great about this phone is that it looks like it will actually go into production next February. Of course, its just a rumor, but still, makes us hope to actually see it someday in the GSM shop. All we know about it for now is that its a touchscreen phone and it looks fantastic.

3. SKY “Sleek & Slim”

“Sleek & Slim” (http://www.akihabaranews.com/en/news-13564-A+new+Concept+Phone+by+Sky.html) from SKY is another concept based on touchscreen technology. The phone has a discretely glowing touchpad, hideaway keys and generally utterly-fashionable minimalist design.

4. Benq-Siemens Snaked

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/benq_snaked_concept.jpg
Benq designers thought of women too and presented Snaked (http://www.slashphone.com/111/3515.html). This is a “reptile” looking phone, creepy somehow, but still is very cool. The Snaked is a fashion phone for sport loving women, because it also has body monitoring sensors (http://linx.chitika.net/sosearch?xargs=POSDPIe9nSemxOrYZRcs55OU9qvBnn/Ovd3zMpQabWJAqq4kyuAvH4JWvK47FOPspOOm5uh7njZbM16j4 AjuN1L3%2BJP7sMII4CPRsVciNKiKrbfeHwnWgh6gkXeZtYEXY/eBpefjUejMVN5wm/oNlcNrdRCz1AsnXGrtRLnc5uVhk4bg8/kkVUzGbR8fBhM9wRZ2HPvkdsUVu8amT3Uu2auvHLh2y1cqaOas POL4x4ebQxeWR6VdrHhBSgnsCgnAs3iUmHIINmOptFGwO8tQf9/y4WBgWnSupIXjUu5rm2mMOKC4p0nxZw%3D%3D&q=monitoring%20sensors) to help the ladies keep those fine shapes.

5. “What You See Is What You Get” Concept

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/wysiwyg_concept_phone.jpg
One thing is for sure about this concept phone…they could’ve named it shorter. Designed by Pei-Hua Hang, the phone’s name comes from the fact that this concept no longer uses an LCD as viewfinder for the digital camera (http://linx.chitika.net/sosearch?xargs=6OcXl79fZRm75L9wn4k2Ycj1ETe21HXDIi5 nUre9XSDTUlroBfZyn2o3a6yHeD93goVV6/Bjn3M/%2BIEXMbUN2ZMNJ7e8FqdFUNt1WCbICPj9QvVZd1GML7AQoB/MsmB7aIkRLevmQztcFKjiql1lkd%2BHdMSK5GEGMDP087hJpjD TCGHbxNdGVXBZLe9Gl19WBILy/YMUhSuho3%2BUpt8xuO4WHbNDPTpms3J/3Zcr%2BSduZcImZsyH2pb978cVKh8JJ2cW%2BpDRWx9TC6Csvi 6Mbi8HAKYP9h/O2R4u0%2B0wVthY9PXirJLnQA%3D%3D&q=digital%20camera), instead it uses a transparent frame. And of course, interaction is made through a touchscreen.

6. Retroxis by Dark Label

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/dark_label_retroxis.jpg
If most phones presented here will never be sold in store for sure, the Retroxis (http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/dark-label-retroxis-stylish-phone) concept phone from Dark Label looks kinda human, and makes us hope we’ll be able to get one of these one day. Designed by Lim Sze Tat the phone is encased in high polished polycarbonate renowned for its lightweight and toughness and has an invisible OLED display that silently hides away when inactive.
7. Benq-Siemens Black Box (http://linx.chitika.net/track?target=http%3A//ypn-120.overture.com/d/sr/%3Fxargs%3DPhBzOKvQpr_K1cC9NJhw6Ac2sDLYo1BdJ0C0lWi uZyIZUdSa5QOhRUQJioJ34wiWZRl6tMo0RVCOzIwamt7bgKlas 2_LH2RnQ-5k5SuhL0GdtXD6eTjji2v-BHFInU4NAelzdhL8Dmts0z0STY4mQG4ZIExEL-aZJQ363UB3NFaEyxq5FwyO3ujmJimKv_Wtnfrj2WVixt99CrW0 OVMyhdHlQvlDDtWuWUWY5As8eJUU_8GP6-mYNV0TyZbN1xk5RYpVe5w8Depz0W81iJx5mkcDavjdM47AOXwE v7GQKiXntYR0-S3iiEPlDCy_WfAXwvWhKNV7Aa5BAYdPunNrbCojzSWvOGTGJHZ QgfBtqsmv-_0ZAB_-YDtj_EpQabeVBBMviWYK1ZxdzPtb4O2IU3D4uy9SntwuesE6k6 OyTkKTXEAPyPA5PIJSXI1mPl5FBXbOq1YL2t1tHTvIGOZy-w%26op%3D135c3c9&xargs=woG61RAuneRla3LwLkMoxaUETSuQO1/sv31IOcrp32BqiM4IfQpEAduQfFxXZyoyOoMbNDRvyCP0R%2Bd BiiDVmuECqt%2Bl11yDihM62v%2Bh02EeBDpYjzj/WJu4erJAx6%2BDot%2B8HzBSHCqTFYwjFxePzQ0ux9HXlDphvt zz5exUJP6VjwhHuRF1tzEWWBhWeemDJygIYscWa4dzWMSp%2BL XvTjWFJD/284VpI4vYSsAopnGyBXW3TxiQdY/%2Bo9SxqH8N5h%2BRljmE%2BEbirU4kYVcCVzCUEwz/oNd5GRQW/NThSGo%3D&keyword=Black%20Box)

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/benq_siemens_black_box1.jpg
Black Box (http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/benq-siemens-black-box-concept) designed by Benq-Siemens uses a touch screen (http://linx.chitika.net/track?target=http%3A//ypn-120.overture.com/d/sr/%3Fxargs%3DUs-YR7rtqpc9Qgl823Hu9Srb3S9wwzW5IvX42qKsqw1cwrWl29z7T X-pfCdhnSZorTUMY3PDoFvrEciJ-wuI0Wn5GXx9cPd1OXtsNrfwtV4YiD7anZIWeIAth_wmfijLCwR 94CXQLE4mFDP1HOKTCEgm1aXgf8EcqbiF6gU2PzESlFS2_isuk 8BpMqo0SM9ZRzHaLkftZAXX0W9G1dxgWwrqaR0rz4qa3xorjH1 8xOR8XWOKOUx3PF2vA3dQLyf2-pYeQQ8mypqhiFYHP5jbTx6gT5RE0tN8RQ50MMqXnDrlkJ-AihyU851il5AZi_obdjLfmtIjRoa92eOR6G0A1k_-nnDdLitHQiSQu9VSkRVP_zGHADVYOvDU9gxXJi2ekUgB-l_ezCfyq77KIHbH0cad_3jTukHCrcySszaOr1tK3uiDpVQKYfd JU0TTkqoGAKRMcejoOws4VnqTi9mVZA%26op%3D135c3c9&xargs=IuBqxMs1OyEzBeHRIUGa1rQbFgi18ZkQm6mcPh1RvFE5 yNXliZ1S%2BtK9885b%2B7nrAJpBL73S2fwJXxApOY84tjojIv VdlcuYOQEqTxp7GAVx0usZiBt%2BZ//cQbOnAX/bacETkD%2BGNEpNyBdhEz5LadBQHpLk4rLkCez1/18j6lv%2Bq9wfbclBrKeI2dqjCrPVzQeXJfrvh8nGTV1jM0JR5 Qtce8f8oBG1DdnZBsz9kwLwGx2FMjxbPOCUH5QQRtMFKXdzWDe uoPYAp04r0L7sLzggG4S%2BoGj/a9gAQXYUMJmT%2B6zEeNmISw%3D%3D&keyword=touch%20screen) as its keypad and, depending on the functions you are using, the touch screen changes the control layout immediately.

8. NEC Tag

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/nec_tag_concept_phone.jpg
Somehow similar to the Snaked concept, the NEC Tag is a flexible phone concept that can be , for example, hung from a belt or wrapped around the user’s arm. Interesting is that the phone has shape-memorizing material and sensors that allows the phone to change its shape according to the mode.

9. TripleWatch

http://www.cameraphonesplaza.com/images/triplewatch_concept_phone.jpg
Though the idea of a cellphone watch is not so new, the TripleWatch designed by Manon Maneenawa has an interesting triple flip technique that allows the user to transform the watch into a normal cellphone. When used as a wrist watch (http://linx.chitika.net/sosearch?xargs=HhtCxYprydYDuVsiy5M%2B1fk3yt9MaS5sl QiC7PumfdYN6bHyghd%2Bq2mAzIQ5jfQ9IKYmGUR6O7AFk5P7V YaN6Px%2BAn81jT8aA2D40JO29g8RN2OrfVbcHUL2gZN1nqXDN Ln0dn13RrJhGWa5YO4M67NNTevykJoWqlXhQksj0AXN3/RAlWppksWT/9Tu6Xw0Ua8gHubAcQ98O/5NY1vJXVd77v4XwQ7z1qtyFDoE5ISB74NPfzO4Le5z1Nxa16oQ j2yVX61wgkmULVUybWkiX4yVMICPr4SUUSxnQpKJRYY%3D&q=wrist%20watch), the phone has a speaker button that allows the user to answer the phone and hang up while driving.

All of them are a little too advanced for me. I don't know. Maybe so looks like T-Mobile is heading in a new direction, and it looks like its a good direction.
