it seems like ASUS has more in store when it comes to touchscreen phones than that P552w we saw the other day. According to pictures leaked to the Mobile01 forums, the company is planning an Omnia-esque device that will feature a large (WQVGA or WVGA) touchscreen, a 5-megapixel camera, a trackball for non-touch navigation, and the predictable 3G radios / WiFi. Not much is known about the device at this point, though speculation is running rampant on the forum as to CPU specs and on-board memory. It’s likely this will be at least competitive in comparison to recent Window Mobile devices we’ve seen of this diversity, though nothing’s certain till we get word from ASUS… which we’re waiting patiently for, fellas.

If, for whatever reason, you found yourself recently craving a Motorola U9 in gunmetal grey, today would be your lucky day — assuming you live in the US and don’t mind handing your credit card information over to the company’s humorously labeled MOTOSTORE. The diminutive mobile, which includes 25MB of on board memory, a microSD expansion slot, 2-megapixel camera, integrated media player, stereo Bluetooth and a fanciful external display, is at this time available in an unlocked GSM flavor for $275.99. Oh, and if you’re really after a different hue, expect pink and purple to show up shortly.
