Kyocera Intros Two Entry Models
ugly phone
Kyocera still makes some of the ugliest phones. I wonder though if the quality of the phone will be good, or garbage like some of their other phones. If this style phone becomes available in the USA, it would have to be dual-band and not single band 800mhz CDMA. While all markets have the 800 band, not all markets have CDMA 800, especially in some of the markets where Cingular got to keep both the A & B sides of the cellular band. If anything, it'll likely be offered through USCC, Alltel, & MetroPCS. I doubt it'll be offered through Verizon Wireless as they have backed away from Kyocera in favor of Pantech, which doesn't make stylish phones either, but probably because Kyocera won't put the VZW UI on their phones.

Cmon these phones are for first time users and/or in markets where CDMA is developing, like China and India. If it was to come to the US it would be a Virgin phone.

As someone who has used CDMA since I got a cell in 2001, I have to say the selection of available phones sucks. I plan to change to an unlocked GSM device with Wifi soon. Enough is enough!

I think this one doesn't look too bad for an entry level phone. It seems a litte bit like a FUSIC rip-off, but mostly in a good way. I think this is leaps and bounds better than the kx1 and the k444 or whatever that ugly bar phone is. Overall, I think kyocera is making *some* good moves for the market they are targeting. The strobe is a cool device for the segment it is in, and I think this one is more stylish than a lot of comparable phones.
