Gigabyte Communications Introduces g-X5 Slider

There's a new kid on the cell phone block.  Gigabyte Communications (yes they are affiliated with that Gigabyte known for computer hardware) has announced a new handset, the Gigabyte g-X5.

Currently the phone is only available in Taiwan and features a technology called POI (Points of Interest).  Need to find a restaurant?   POI displays e-maps for certain destinations recommended by the magazine, Walker.  The phone's specs: GSM tri-band, 2.6 million color TFT display, camera, and tri-axis motion sensing (allows users to play games by moving the device in their hand).
