Remember a while back we exclusively revealed that Vodafone were testing the new Vodafone v1240 and v1640? Well, we’re revealing that they’ve actually hit the shops and you can buy them right now!
If you check the Vodafone UK Business store you’ll find the Vodafone v1240 Smartphone on page 2 which runs Windows Mobile 5.0 and comes equipped with EDGE, WiFi (yes, we said WiFi) and 1.3 Megapixel camera plus Bluetooth and much more. On page 3 of the “Business Phones” section you can find the Vodafone v1640 (known as the M5000 on Orange, the XDA Exec on o2 and the MDA Pro on T-Mobile) with it’s QWERTY keyboard, integrated 1.3 megapixel camera, WiFi, rotating 65k colour TFT touch-screen display, 64MB memory and 3G.
Both the handsets can be seen from the links below, which will hopefully work (if not, just go to Vodafone.co.uk and check the “Business” section). It’s a shame that Voda didn’t create much of a fanfare about their release, but we love the look of that v1240! 🙂
