Tech Ticker

Off late Pantech are launching some great new handsets. This time its their homeland, Korea who gets the masterpiece in the form of IM-U160. The slider phone has a 2.6″ QVGA LCD screen which features an aspect ratio of 15:9 compared to other phones which generally offer 4:3. The phone has a touch sensor keypad on the upper slide which vibrates when it is touched. Now according to me, this feature is totally useless but the company touts it as giving a unique feel to the user. IM-U160 has a 2 megapixel camera, DMB, music player, 184MB internal memory and a slot for microSD. Click more to see one more shot and full list of features.
