Roi Update, Comes in Threes

[Update:] From The Korea Times - SK Telecom is trying to sell this thing at W900000! (not counting subsidies) That's more than an iPhone! Which is outrageous considering the operating system for the thing is Gratis. Also a reader points to www.motoroi.co.kr which I forgot to mention and, notwithstanding the price, might just increase your lust for the thing further. As for me I'll be sticking with the iPhone, at least until Christmas when my contract is up!

[Original:] Just to prove that I'm into it here is your third Motorola Roi update in 24 hours. Can't say I like that name, the more I say it the more I dislike it, I think we'll just refer to it as "Korea's first Android Phone", like everyone else....

Overnight 3 new videos popped up showing basic features, highlighting the 8 megapixel camera and finally the phone's ability to record in 720p High Definition.

Don't let the Konglish get in your way! (Pown Bay-Jik - WTF!? Surely you mean "Basic Phone Operations" or some such!?)

Um, meh... If I had 900,000 won just laying around (which I don't) I'd either get a LAPTOP COMPUTER which can do anything I need, or get an iphone and have enough money left over for the apps that make it fun.

An 8MP camera? Geez - it's making my Nikon D70 sound like some antiquated piece of technology. If gadget lust is overwhelming you, then shell out the omanwon bills...

I received my first personal loans when I was a teenager and that helped my business a lot. However, I need the short term loan also.
