iPhone Killers - The List Goes on - Part IV

The Arena is also going to be a handset that Apple should take very seriously as an iPhone competitor. It’s equipped with 8GB of internal memory that can be expanded via microSD cards. It also comes with a 5 megapixel camera and Geotagging with GPS on board as well. Even when it comes to connectivity it’s quite loaded – Wi-Fi, EDGE, 3G, Bluetooth with A2DP, it’s all there. Like the iPhone, the Arena also has multitouch with an accelerometer as part of the display’s capabilities. You can use ‘pinch control’ for zooming in or out of images and websites etc. The new 3D revolving multiple desktop may seem a bit over the top but it’s quite handy. You’ll also be able to play most videos in DivX and XviD formats by copy pasting the files on to the drive. No iTunes. It supports TV out and also comes with an FM radio which is also (hopefully) going to be part of the new iPhone’s feature pack.
