CTIA Fall 2006
Kyocera had two new phones to show off. Both are entry-level models. One - the K122 - is so entry-level that it's only targeted at "emerging markets" that are even more price-sensitive than the US. The one we'll see stateside is the K132.
The K132 is very basic, with no external display or downloadable game capability, although it does sport a color display. The internal antenna keeps the relatively stylish clamshell design simple and clean-looking. It has a nice, solid feel to it.
The previously-announced K320 and K340 series phones are still on track for release, with the first K320 models launching later this month, and the K342 coming early next year. Unfortunately the higher-end K822 has been shelved due to lack of interest from carriers, although Kyocera has some more exciting phones in the pipeline for next year.
