Mobiles Review

The good news is that this is one fantasy you can afford to indulge yourself. The Pantech C300 does, indeed, have the appearance of something the CIA might issue. But not with the usual government price tag. In fact, this phone is free. It’s free with your Cingular Wireless service order and no undercover credentials are required.

World’s Smallest and Lightest Flip Phone
The Pantech C300 is indeed the world’s smallest and lightest flip phone. The gorgeous textured silver color case measures a palmable 2.7 x 1.7 x 0.8 inches. Weight? Featherweight. Just 2.5 ounces.

Digital Camera and Two High Resolution Displays
The outside of your C300 sports a vivid high resolution color display, the camera lens and flash. It fits easily into any pocket or bag, even a shirt pocket or those small high fashion purses. Flip it open and you’ll find a larger high resolution color display and a nicely laid out keyboard. The display gives you a great view of the clear color pictures you’ll take with the built-in VGA quality digital camera, plus pictures messages you receive from your fellow agents??¦er??¦friends. You can include sound as well as text with your pictures through the Pantech’s multimedia messaging capability.

Text and Instant Messaging Capable
Of course, there are situations when it is not prudent to speak (wink, wink). For those you have standard SMS text messaging available, plus instant messaging with AOL IM, Yahoo! Messenger and ICQ all built-in. You can even browse mobile web sites using the included WAP 2.0 browser.

Hands-Free Operations
At other times, it may be unsafe or inconvenient to be holding a cell phone to your ear. No problem. Just switch on the built-in speakerphone and you can converse hands-free.
