I have to admit, I wasn’t that impressed when I first saw this phone -- probably had something to do with its advertising campaign which uses some rock chick wannabe. It just made me feel a bit too targeted. But after a closer look, rock chick or not, it’s really a pretty cool little phone.

The Motorola "Ming" A-1200 PDA Smart Phone is a fully integrated gadget that serves as a mobile phone, a PDA, a music player, a camera, a video recorder, a name card reader and a data storage device (up to 1GB). The phone is fashioned with a cool looking transparent cover as a protection for the 2.4" color touch-screen display.

Comes with a 2.0 Mega-pixel camera that also supports video recording; you can view music and other video entertainment on the 2.4” display by using RealPlayer.

In addition to all the regular capabilities such as mp3 player, Bluetooth connection, Internet browser and email, and touch screen-enhanced handwriting recognition now with Pinyin, this little phone has the most incredible secret weapon. Being the rock star that you believe you are, you just can’t carry a business card holder when you need to carry your axe! Your Motorola “Ming” has a built-in business card reader and a data storage device that will transform a business card into digital data and have it stored into the address book! You will never loose the name and number of that agent/manager/boyfriend-wannabe again! Then again, maybe you want to . . .

Comes in 3 different colors, black, white and red, available in Hong Kong for approximately $3980 HKD.
