Could this be the purrfect phone?
It makes such a change for us to read through the spec sheet for a new phone, and raise a smile – this new phone, from the sports folk at Puma, promises to be a little different.
Aimed at us healthy folk, the PUMAPHONE is a keep-fit phone with an analogue stopwatch, GPS running tracker, a GPS bike speedometer, a walking pedometer and a yachting compass (of course).
Next we found one of those “why didn’t I think of that” features – the back of the phone has an integral solar cell, to allow charging from the sun.
There are also some fun apps too – including on-demand digital cat (no, we were confused too) as well as a sarcastic calculator – expect to be told off if you try “1+2=”. There’s also a scratching DJ turntable to allow you to play with your music collection.
A stylish-looking red user interface and a large dollop of quirkiness could just make this phone a hit.
The PUMAPHONE, made by Sagem, should be available in the UK from April 2010. No news on price, but Puma, if you’re reading… please let us review this for you!
