Two new Kyocera cell phones

The 2009 edition of the CTIA Wireless seems to be another great choice for companies from all over the world to present their latest products to the public. This is what Kyocera decided to do, as two brand new handsets developed by the Japanese company have been announced at CTIA. They are called the G2GO M2000 and the Laylo M1400, which are both targeted at the North American market, where CDMA networks are available.
The first one, the G2GO M2000 is expected to be the substitute of the Lingo M1000 and comes with a QWERTY keyboard that is able to slide horizontally, music dedicated keys and, of course, an accelerometer.
The features of the phone are said to be a 2.4 inches QVGA display, a 1.3 megapixel camera, Bluetooth connectivity, email and IM, voice recognition, MP3 player and microSD card slot for expandable memory of no more than 8GB. The phone measures 113 x 52 x 17 millimeters and weighs no more than 120 grams, providing approximately 250 minutes of talk time and no more than 200 hours of stand-by time.
The phone is expected to be commercialized with an affordable price by Virgin Mobile, starting this month. It’s just that the name of the phone will be Kyocera X-tc.

As for the second handset, the Laylo M1400 is provided with non-QWERTY keypad, vertical this time. The features include a 2.2 inches QVGA display, a VGA camera, Bluetooth connectivity and a speaker-independent voice recognition. The dimensions of the phone are 94.7 x 46.7 x 17.0 millimeters and 90 grams, and to continue the numbers list, I’ll tell you that the battery is said to provide up to 200 minutes of talk time and up to 200 hours of stand-by time.

The details about the release and the prices of the two Kyocera cell phones are not known for the moment.
