qigi-ak007This beefed up, ready-to-fight QiGi AK007, found courtesy of Engadget China, is a super armored smartphone available on the consumer market… which is quite rare.

It runs a 624MHz core processor, WinMo 6.1, has 256MB of ROM, 128MB of RAM, GPS, a fairly-standard 2MP camera, and either CDMA or GSM / EDGE radios. Nothing too fancy, but good enough for those who need their phone to be able to survive just about anything.

Maybe I should invest in one…

ZTE (a mobile company out of China) has just announced its plans to demo 10 new smartphones at next week’s MWC 2009 in Barcelona.

Rumour has it that at least one of these new smartphones (the VF 1231) will be running Windows Mobile. The rest of the devices are said to be from entry-level to high-end and will run either Windows Mobile or Linux platforms.

No more is currently known about these phones including whether or not they’ll be available in North America but ZTE has, in the past, made it clear that they’d like to gain some traction in the U.S. market.

Specifically, it will be the Chinese version of the Samsung Omnia to take the first hit get the first native install. Who’s next?
