Helio has a slick device called the
"Ocean" that may make waves big time as the new year rings in. Starting
at about $199 (with plan) the device bundles all the popular things
that you, hip, mobile users want and need - things like social
networking ala MySpace, integrated GPS, Google maps, a swift 3G
network, Music (audio and videos), YouTube access, gaming, messaging,
and cool cutsom ring tones and images for customizing your device. Sure
you can get all this on other smartphones from Nokia, Sony Ericsson,
Palm etc... but these guys have made all this stuff front and center,
simple to get to and cool... all important factors that will lead to
sales. See www.helio.com - plans
start at $55 p/month and include all you can eat data and messaging!
North Americans still haven't embraced the "smartphone" yet, maybe this
will help stimulate some more interest... no smartphone yet - smarten up!
