The phone is a unique take on the music phone with a swiveling form factor identical to the discontinued Pantech KickFlip offered by Helio.

The phone is also unique in that it features a music player, 2GB of internal memory, stereo Bluetooth, and external controls, but it does not support the V CAST Music Store for over the air downloads, as it only features 1xRTT data access and not EVDO.

The phone does support the V CAST Music Manager software to load music back and forth between phone and PC, as well as featuring a VGA camera and voice control.

The phone is now available online for $149.99 after new 2 year agreement with an additional $50 instant rebate bringing the total to $99.99
