KIN One

Microsoft just introduced its newest Windows Mobile-based phone, the KIN.  They’re dubbing it as a ‘social phone.’ Putting the phone together included Verizon Wireless, Vodafone and Sharp Corporation. KIN will be exclusively available from Verizon Wireless in the U.S. beginning in May and from Vodafone this autumn in Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom. They will feature both touchscreens and slide-out QWERTY keyboards.
