The Snoopy handset is being announced on the 55th Birthday of everyone’s favorite cartoon character. The handset itself is of a slider design and is covered by the Snoopy all around. There is the pose that everyone recalls of Snoopy lying on the top of his dog house and looking into the sky that has been printed at the back. The front is also covered with clouds and Snoopy with his little pals. In addition there are screensavers and wallpapers which will also stick to the theme – check out the photos alongside. The phone also has an integrated handsfree. The Snoopy phone is based on the Gigabyte GX-5 handset.
The Snoopy handset has features like a megapixel camera, a TFT display which can show upto 262,000 colors as well as support for a mini SD card. The miniSD card comes particularly in use because of the camera and built-in Mp3 player. Snoopy’s birthday was celebrated with lots of other memorabilia as well. However the highlight was of course the cell phone. Being a limited edition, people will be allowed to reserve their handsets. The phone is expected to retail for around 14,500 yuan (that is around 130 USD) – sounds like a deal but its Japan and the configuration is not high end for them. Via Phoneyworld
