Open Moko Neo 1973 Linux Handset

Unusual handset launch by FIC manufacture with code name Neo1973 which reflect the year that mobile phone was first time introduced. Neo1973 is a handset with linux based OS from OpenMoko and designed to be easily configurable and expandable device with sharp contrast to other phones.

The screen display Neo1973 2.8 inch with 640×480 pixel panel give an impressive screen resolution 283 dpi. The excellent display can be compare with Nokia N800. You can control almost all of the menu from the screen. Unfortunately there’s no camera on Neo1973, only GPRS connection with GSM network. No Wifi and 3G and it’s really a lacking cell phone.

But Neo1973 has feature with AGPS (assisted GPS), microSD memory, bluetooh 2.0 and multimedia playback. The USB connection only version 1.1 so the transfer data speed can’t be compare with 2.0. The memory on the package only 512MB microSD and the internal only 128MB but i can be upgrade if you want to add it.

The Open Moko Neo1973 will be available hopefully on October with discount price US$ 300. The variant will be available with black and orange color. [via mobilegazette]
