iRiver phone coming next year

iRiver, known for its music- and media players, has announced its touchscreen concept phone in January at CES, and it seemed to disappear afterwards. The final model has appeared on the manufacturer's site, and its expected launch date is March 9 2009 for Korean network operators. The phone, sporting a 3", 272 x 480 display has a WLAN module, FM radio, e-book support and an advanced media player. It is an interesting feature that the phone's memory can be expanded with a miniSD card. It's worth noting that the original design didn't change much, so the much copied Apple iPhone feeling is still not present.
