DEC D10, a $180 Windows Phone – From China
How cheap is too cheap? This is the same question that you will ask yourself after taking a glance at the D10 Windows Phone.
D10 is outfitted with a VGA (480×640) and is powered by PXA300 processor that runs at respectable 600MHz clock speed. Other specs include 256MB ROM, 128MB RAM, Wi-Fi, GPS, mini-USB port and a 3MP camera for taking pictures.
True, those specs are not top of the line, but at $180, we cannot complain much.
