Benq has released on October 1 a 10 mm thick smartphone, BenQ E72. The Windows Mobile 6 OS puts a entire gamma of Office applications, multimedia and internet at your disposal.

However the terminal is seriously limited at the usability chapter. The 2″ TFT display, very small for a smartphone, and the alphanumeric keyboard will bring some of you to the tip of insanity in case you want to write your memoires in Word or want to chat on IM ( via Wi-Fi as 3G is missing). VoIP seems to be it’s only salvation.

The 128 MB internal memory can be extended with the help of a microSD card, up to 2 GB.

The BenQ E72 smartphone will be available in Europe and a few asian states.
