Introduction
We all know that Multi Media Mobile phone is one of the main types in the current years. Sony Ericsson has P800 based on Symbian 7 OS, and Nokia has 7650, 3650 based on Symbian 6 platform. Austrian brand Tel.me also produces T919 as a Multi Media phone model, although it is using its own Operating system. Hong Kong is one of the places to launch this phone first. ThreeGMobile staff also has a chance to play that phone first.

Austrian Phone in Hong Kong
In Hong Kong, Tel.me T919 is a co-branded product. JNC, a local brand name is added before Tel.me. The major difference of Hong Kong version and international one is that Simplified Chinese interface is added. Hong Kong is the first place of Asia Pacific to launch this phone also. The initial price range of T919 is the same as Nokia 3650 while cheaper than Sony Ericsson P800. It supports both Simplified Chinese and English Interface.

P800 Challenger?
In the mobile phone newsgroup, many mobile phone lovers claimed Tel.me T919 is a challenger of Sony Ericsson P800. The main reason is that the outlooks of two are quite similar. Two phones are in traditional PDA shape. Both of them use touch screen to operate. The original design of T919 back to 2002 CeBIT included an added on numeral keypad, however, it disappeared in the final version.
