You don't need to spend a lot of time with the Modu phone to realize if it's for you or not. The first time I saw the Modu, I was a bit confused how one could comfortably use this phone with that very sparse physical keys. Turns out the phone gives you a virtual alphanumeric keypad for typing a message (reminds me of the virtual keyboard of PSP, only the Modu has alphanumeric). While most phones in the market battle it out to be your primary mobile handset, the Modu phone is alone for the #2 spot. In the Philippines, a significant chunk of mobile users have a second phone which they use for simple but specific purpose -- second phone could be the office phone for business and client contacts; or is reserved for a specific person or a small personal group of contacts. Instead of getting a bigger, heavier or more expensive secondary phone, the Modu gets it done and doesn't add much weight on your pocket. The Modu phone is by no means not your regular feature phone but rather a fashion phone. While every iPhone fans are waiting for the supposed August/September release of the iPhone 3G in the Philippines, I've rounded up some of the top choices for iPhone 3G alternatives and compared them side by side.
