The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has recently approved the Pocket PC phone Toshiba Satellite RG4-E02. The device is actually Toshiba G900, already available in other countries. Now, after FCC's approval, US customers can enjoy this super phone too, under the name of RG4-E02.

Toshiba
Satellite RG4-E02 operates on Windows Mobile 6, it has a full slide-out QWERTY keyboard and an elegant design. A photo and video camera of 2 MP with a maximum resolution of 1600x1200 pixels is integrated, but probably one of the most appreciated features is the very generous display: a 3 inch TFT LCD with Touch screen with a resolution of 480x800 pixels. This will surely give users an excellent mobile internet experience. With such a display, and being a Pocket PC phone, RG4-E02's dimensions are not as big as some may think: 119 x 61 x 21.5 mm with a weight of 198 grams.

The phone is 3G-compatible and features tri-band GSM (with GPRS and EDGE included) and one-band UMTS (HSDPA included). Among other important features, we can name: fingerprint recognition, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi, headset connector, microSD card for up to 2 GB of extra memory, Pocket Office, photo album and photo editor, MP3 player, voice memo etc. The device has an industry-standard mini-USB connector, which means that any mini-USB cable can be used, and not only the original one. The standard Li-Ion battery can keep RG4-E02 in stand-by for 260 hours and provides a talk time of up to 4 hours and 20 minutes.

Some of the pre-installed applications are Opera Browser, Picsel Viewer, Java, TIPtalk, Teleport and GoldKey.

A US price had not yet been announced for Toshiba RG4-E02. But, regardless of price, the high resolution and the other nice features (plus the fact that it runs on Windows Mobile 6) will make this Pocket PC phone an important competitor for all the other mobile devices of this type released in the US.
