Toshiba recently announced TS605, a slim mobile phone that includes the same features as the TS32, the only difference being the colors it comes in and the fact that the TS32 is distributed on the Asian market, while TS605 is available in Europe.

While there are only two color options available for the phone's front side, black or silver, the rear casing comes in enough colors to please any person's needs, including green, classic champagne, fluorescent pink, aubergine and more, although the availability of color variants may differ by supplier or country.

Toshiba is also keeping the phone's design pretty simple and slim and, in my opinion, it's somewhat similar in design to the iPod Nano, sleek and slim as it is.

The TS605 is extremely light, weighing 79 grams, and measures 113mm x 47mm x 10.3mm so you'll have no problem carrying it around. What's also nice is that they managed to fit in some pretty great features despite its tiny case.

The TS605 is equipped with a 1.9 inch 262k color display, a 1.3 megapixel camera with 8x digital zoom and video capture for those special moments, Mp3 player with a built-in FM Radio and Bluetooth for connectivity, MMS and e-mail support. As for the basic features, the tri-band TS605 also has a Wap 2.0 browser, three embedded games and Java support.

The internal memory is not as large as one would expect, as the 5.5 MB provided may work for storing some photos but will not be enough for storing any music. So, in case you need to store MP3's, the phone also has a MicroSD card slot that supports up to 1GB optional memory card.
