Not to take anything away from today’s other big cellphone news, but you may want to sit down for this. This particular phone, the Mooon+, which is currently just a concept, one-ups the iPhone by having a built-in, detachable Bluetooth dongle. (Of course, the iPhone, in turn, one-ups the Mooon+ by being real.)
To me, it sorta looks like a cross between a SideKick3 and a BlackBerry Pearl, only with a touchscreen. Like it or not, the touchscreen is here to stay. I guess it’s just one of those things I’ll have to get used to, lest I come across as a luddite, which I’m not. I’m just grumpy and resistant to change.

This actually looks really cool. And if they can do a lot of similar new things that the iPhone is doing, and continue to follow that path, I think it’ll definitely beat the iphone.
The detachable bluetooth earpiece is very smart. Instead of having a separate piece it’s part of the phone. I’ve got a bluetooth earpiece for my phone but I never use it because 1: I never have it with me 2: since I never have it with me, it’s never charged 3:I’d only use it in a few situations, not all the time. …But if it was always there, it’d always be charged, and it’d always be with me if I ever needed it in those certain situations.
I don’t have any experience with all this new touchscreen tech coming out, I’m behind the times when it comes to that…but the design looks nice. And if it’s a reasonable price when it comes out and the features are impressive when it’s released…it’ll definitely be a phone I look into
Verizon’s upcoming LG VX8610 has a detachable Bluetooth headset.
