It features an elegant, compact design with a stylish black finish and chrome frame.

There is built-in Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g) and GPS with support for location-based applications and services. It also supports a wide range of communications, social networking and multimedia applications, making it easier than ever to stay connected, productive and entertained.
Other features include 3.2-megapixel camera with image stabilisation, digital zoom, flash and video recording, and a media player together with a 3.5mm stereo headset jack and headset. It includes a hot-swappable microSD/SDHC memory card slot (with a 256MB card included) and can support memory cards of up to 16GB, allowing customers to carry and capture more of their favourite music, pictures and video wherever they go.
