The Vivaz Pro is an upgraded version of the recently announced Vivaz.
The major difference is the Pro has a slide out QWERTY keyboard on top of all of the other features. While some might think that is breaks the styling of the phone, it adds a mere 2mm to the thickness and only 20 grams to its weight. Not a major price to pay for a full QWERTY keyboard. (Also known as the Kanna)

The 117 g weight is lower than other touch screen phones that do not have a QWERTY sliding keyboard which is certainly something of note. Additionally, the battery has a good standby life in both 2G and 3G networks and an amazing 2G talk time. It certainly looks like this could appeal to a wide range of people (myself included).
