Zonda MPTREZ, ready for the American Market?

Saturday, April 07, 2007

People who like innovation will find it very attractive the increasing chances of getting a Zonda MPTREZ, a tri-band GSM cell phone manufactured by the Mexican company Zonda, a former TV and electronics manufacture established in 1969 in Guadalajara, Jalisco. Also famous as a local distributor for the German Telefunken, Zonda began its venture in mobile telephony in 2000.

Zonda MPTREZ has been in the Mexican market for awhile now, but now crossing the border with its attractive slim candy bar design compatible with 850, 1800, and 1900 MHz networks. The MPTREZ (disambiguation of Spanish pronunciation for MP3) is expressly designed for providing you with music playback and video reproduction with iPOD quality.

This handset comes packed with 65K-color TFT touchscreen display, 176x220 pixels resolution and 1 GB audio and video memory, but its main characteristic is that you can carry along a full-length movie, with many more being available through a Blockbuster-like store at Zonda's web site.

MPTREZ features a 1.3 mega pixel digital camera, a microSD memory expansion card slot for music, video and movies storage, remote control headphones, Bluetooth and RCA cable to connect your phone to a sound system, besides applications common to most cell phones on the market.

In the United States, this phone is being introduced discreetly in the bordering cities. Some users have posted in forums that Zonda MPTREZ is fully compatible with most American cell phone carriers and cost about $300 USD with no contracts or strings attached.
