After mini-phone Pantech C300 's great success Cingular Wireless is introducing C3, an upgraded version of C300. I should start by saying that Pantech C3 is really small and stylish, just like the C300, and will win a lot of user's hearts just by being cute.

When purchased, the C3 comes with two interchangeable face plates, Secret Blue and Silver Frontages (meaning a blue and a silver faceplate), and other colors will also be available after the mobile phone is launched, making it very desirable for all fashion-obsessed people out there who enjoy matching everything to their clothes.

Pantech C3 measures only 2.72 x 1.69 x 0.8 inches and is as smart as its little case can allow. It is equipped with a VGA camera with flash and 4x digital zoom, allows the user to share photos with friends and relatives, supports MP3 ringtones, Mobile E-mail Services for Yahoo!, AOL and MSN Hotmail. Weighing only 71.9 grams, it can be easily carried in any pocket or bag, the only problem being that sometimes you might even forget it's there.

Pantech C3 also includes the basic mobile phone features such as predictive text input, high-speed data transmission via GPRS, picture and ringtone caller ID, calendar and a bright color screen.

It is the kind of mobile phone that is bound to make your day brighter. Little C3 is only available through Cingular Wireless sales channels and can be purchased for a price of $39.99 on a two-year contract after an online-discount and mail-in rebate.
