Orange Vegas Is Certainly Small
Author: +866.com27 Apr
Looking for a rather distinctive phone that most of your friends don’t own, and you’ll certainly have cast a roving eye over the Orange Vegas device. It’s available in either black or pink, has dual-band GPRS, a 4.20 inch touchscreen display, 1.3-megapixel camera. The device is going for £48.50 ($71 USD) on a pay-as-you-go subscription. Let’s just hope that the name “Vegas” doesn’t inspire you to go all over town buying everything in each and every store.

Samsung Jackfrost A877 on AT
Author: +866.com11 Mar
Like the style of the AT&T Quickfire but don’t like your phones catching on fire? Of course. We all feel the same way. That’s why we’re happy to report new rumors out today that Samsung will be putting the A877 on AT&T shelves as early as March 29.
Is this the mysterious Samsung “Jackfrost” that’s been touted for release this month? Could be.
Essentially the A877 is the Eternity with a full QWERTY keyboard and AMOLED touchscreen. From the images we like what we see, so we hope this isn’t just a simple rumor from someone with good Photoshop skills.
Without further delay, here’s some eye candy and specs.
The A877 reportedly will feature:
- 3.2″ WQVGA AMOLED touchscreen
- Slide-out QWERTY
- 3 MP camera with geotagging
- GPS/AT&T Navigator
- Full HTML browser
- TouchWiz
- Quadband EDGE/GSM
- Dual band HSDPA (1900/850)
- Bluetooth, MP3 player
Nice specs. Nice pics. Certainly a nice rumor overall. March 29 isn’t too far away, so we won’t have to wait long to see if this rumor comes to fruition.

Like the A455, Motorola Evoke QA4 is a CDMA / EV-DO Rev. A phone, so it might become a Verizon deal as well.
Its specs include:

- Bluetooth with A2DP
- MP3 player
- E-mail, Instant Messaging

Alcatel OT-707 and OT-800 – cheap touchscreen and QWERTY phones
Author: +866.com6 Mar
Alcatel mobile phones are usually entry-level, affordable ones, and the new OT-707 and OT-800 are no exceptions.
However, these two devices are definitely interesting: Alcatel OT-707 is the company’s first touchscreen handset, while Alcatel OT-800 is its first to have a full QWERTY keyboard.
The OT-707 is quite small and thin (95 x 53 x 13 mm), coming with a rounded case that brings in mind Motorola’s A3100 Surf.
Feature-wise, it doesn’t have too much to offer, but it looks nice and it seems to be a good choice for those who want a really cheap touchscreen phone.
The specs of OT-707 include:
- 2.3 inch TFT touchscreen display with 240 x 320 pixels and 262K colors
- Dual band GSM/GPRS connectivity (900/1800 MHz)
- Bluetooth with A2DP
- Music player
- FM radio
- 1.3 MP camera
- 10MB of internal memory
- MicroSD card support, up to 2GB
- Talk-time: up to 8 hours
- Stand-by time: up to 350 hours
The retail price of Alcatel OT-707 is said to be below 100 Euros ($126), but details about its availability are currently missing.
Alcatel OT-800 comes, as I already said, with a full QWERTY keyboard.
Its features include:
- Tri band GSM/GPRS/EDGE connectivity (900/1800/1900 MHz)
- 320 x 240 pixels display with 262K colors
- Opera Mini
- FM radio with RDS
- 2MP camera
- 111 x 58 x 14 mm
No word yet about when the OT-800 will be launched, but its retail price should be of around 95 Euros ($120).
