The iCEPhone presented to you here is a mobile phone that can be folded three ways. If you need lots of functions on a phone, such as you want a more comfortable control on game play and a full QWERTY for texting, then this phone is the answer.
The iCEphone is the product of Medical Phone Ltd, to be released soon and shipped in the UK. Once the phone is fully folded out, it presents you the screen on top, full QWERTY and the second drop-down section as the game controller with a mouse tracker. So, it’s a smart phone that is great for portable video game plays. And it’s got a built-in GPS unit.
In fact the phone seems to be intended for emergency use as its name is preceded with the word ICE which also stands for “In Case of Emergency”. Take a closer look at the features, it comes with a 3-inch screen with 240 x 400 resolution, 3G/EDGE/GPRS connectivity, two SIM card slots, WiFi, 3.1 megapixel camera. And it runs Windows Mobile 6.0 Pro, and powered by a 532 MHz Freescale iMX31 processor.
It’s scheduled to hit Thailand first and followed by UK in the spring of 2009 for a price less than $1,000. But a phone that folds three times should be a bulky beast and shouldn’t be pocket-friendly.

That thing looks awful. At least no one will steal it from you.
