Puma Phone

Even though sports brand Nike works closely with Apple on iPhone and iPod apps and accessories, who would have predicted that Puma would dive into the phone game?



Working with phone manufacturer Sagem, the Puma Phone has several unique features. For starters, the solar panel on the back of the Puma can provide the user with 15 minutes of talk time (or two hours of music playback) for every two hours the phone sits in the sun. The Puma phone is definitely pointed at a younger audience, with widgets like a pet Puma that wanders onto the screen when the device is idle, or a music player that has a virtual turntable that you can actually scratch with. There is no word on U.S. availability yet, but Europe gets the Puma Phone in April.
