Phillips has finally announced the X800, this new edge to edge touchscreen phone. The timing couldn't be better to do it with the regular iPhone shortage around the world, the new BlackBerry Bold release, the HTC Touch Diamond coming out and the new iPhone rumors spreading more and more. And all these things are happening as we speak so let's welcome the X800 to the ballgame.

Let's look at some numbers here:
2G Network GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900
ype TFT touchscreen, 256K colors
240 x 400 pixels (Wide QVGA), 2.9 inches
microSD (TransFlash)
GPRS Class 10 (4+1/3+2 slots), 32 - 48 kbps
Bluetooth v2.0 w
USB support
Camera: 2 MP, 1600x1200 pixels with autofocus and video
Built-in handsfree
Battery: Standard battery, Li-Ion

Ok, I feel like something is missing from the X800... Didn't hear any 3G? HSDPA? EVDO? EDGE? Safe to say this Phillips X800 might compete with the regular old iPhone.
