<i>"A little Friday present from the FCC: Toshiba's new RG4-E01 Smartphone (that's right, it doesn't look like we're talking about a Windows Mobile 6 Standard device), featuring HSDPA, a 65k color screen, 2 megapixel camera, and Bluetooth with A2DP. Look for this on Vodafone, probably later this weekend when 3GSM kicks off in Barcelona."</i>

The FCC is offering us a glimpse of what kind of announcements to expect during the 3GSM Conference next week. I am happy to see new form-factors and new manufacturers, even though the slider design looks a bit chunky compared to the HTC Vox and it looks like this unit will be powered by Windows Mobile 5.0. The good news is that this unit is a 3G smart phone. To check out the complete list of documents published by the FCC, which includes the photos and user guide, click here.
