Isaiah's Tech

Sharp has just announced their latest smartphone, simply the IS03. This smartphone takes Android to a whole new level on the resolution scale with its 3.5-inch display with 960 x 640 worth of pixels. The handset's display also has Advanced Super View (ASV) which should sport the same advantages (wide view angles) as an IPS display. Yep, just like the iPhone 4 so far. Then we get to the specs, the IS03 sports a 9.6MP AF camera with a flash, a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, WiFi b/g / Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR support, GPS, an FM radio, 512MB of RAM, a 2GB SD card for storage, a one-seg TV tuner, and version 2.1 of Google's OS. Sadly, it likely won't be hitting anywhere outside of Japan but the smartphone itself does have Global Passport CDMA connectivity so if you can smuggle one out of there then you can use it on a CDMA network where ever you want.
