The Motorola Linux-based A1200 Smartphone looks pretty nice for a PDA/Phone. Sports a 2.4-inch QVGA (320 x 240) TFT touchscreen display with 262K colors. The device weighs only 95 grams, or about 3 ounces.

The A1200 has a slimmer, more compact form-factor than previous Linux smartphones from Motorola. It runs MontaVista Linux on an Intel XScale PXA270 processor. The A1200 debuted in January at a media event in Beijing, where clothing designer Vivienne Tam led a crew of Chinese beauties who modeled the A1200 and several other new Motorola phones.
