Philips Xenium 9@9 with battery that lasts 2 months

Philips may not carry a big name in the mobile phone industry but it tries to come up with other form of marketing gimmicks to attract the attention of the public. We don't see many ultra-powerful smartphones coming from the inventor of the CD, but they do have some nice devices that are certainly appreciated among their buyers.

One such devices is the Philips Xenium 9@9, which has a battery that can reportedly last for two whole months in a standby mode, or up to 17 hours of continuous talk-time. And while that's quite impressive, the phone itself provides users with (almost) only the basic features. Maybe that's why it can hold power for that long.

Philips Xenium 9@9 features a 65k color TFT display, a VGA camera, 2.0 Bluetooth Connectivity and a microSD memory card slot. On the other hand, you may consider it as a reliable music-phone whose battery lasts more than an average MP3 player. No word on pricing nor availability, but at the moment it's an Asia-only device.
