Without a doubt one of the biggest surprise from CES 2008 is the apparition of a mobile phone from behalf of iRiver, the well known MP3 and PMPs producer. The design is inspired after the notorious Apple iPhone, but the iRiver proposed gadget differences itself at the hardware level.
The iRiver phone has a 3 inch touchscreen and 480 x 272 worth of resolution, Linux operating system, 4 GB storage capacity, Adobe Flash and a 2 MP camera. In addition to the iPhone, worth mentioning is the incorporated GPS receiver and the mobile TV support.

For now, “iRiver Phone” head towards the American continent. According to a iRiver official, the phone’s price will be a lot more attractive, compared to the iPhone. Bellow, you can view a short demonstration of the surprising gadget’s capabilities.
