Trailing a quarter behind Europe, Cingular today introduced the first Windows Mobile 5.0 powered smartphone to grace US shores in its 2125. Similar in most respects to the
SPV C600 introduced by UK carrier Orange in October 2005, the 2125 offers comprehensive connectivity through the inclusion of quad-band GSM, EDGE, Bluetooth 1.2, Infrared and mini USB, the latter of which also enables charging the smartphone from a laptop.
Equipped with a 2.2-inch high-resolution display, the 2125 also features a miniSD card slot for extending its 64 MB of onboard, non-volatile memory. Other highlights include a 1.3 Megapixel camera and promised compatibility with Microsoft's upcoming Messaging and Security Feature Pack which will enable push e-mail compatibility with Exchange 2003 for enterprise users once launched by Cingular in the first half of 2006.
Claiming up to four hours talk and up to six days of standby, the Cingular 2125 is immediately available from $200 USD.
