Three words come to mind when you first encounter the Pantech U170: Simple, Elegant, Elite. This clamshell phone comes in a fashionable metal casing, and features a 2.2-inch QVGA 260k color LCD display, 128 polyphonic ring tones and a multi-tasking MP3 player. It also has a document viewer with support for popular MS office file types. What makes this handset particularly cool and the first of its kind is that it’s the first phone to have a face recognition based game. The built-in camera tracks facial movement and uses these instead of the usual controllers. Users will be able to view their faces in real time while playing with the IM-U170.
