Motorola E398 on sale now
Motorola's E398 music phone is available now for 199.99 on T-Mobile pay as you go. The mobile's major selling point is its built-in MP3 and MPEG4 player and the stereo speakers that's supposed to endow the handset with superior music playback.
The Motrola E398 has become one of the key handsets in T-Mobile's music download service (more about that here) which allows users to download a few tracks to their mobile handset. The E398 also includes a stereo headset so you don't have to advertise your Britney obsession to the world.
The E398 has 5MB of internal memory and uses the new smaller-than-SD TransFlash removable storage card, available in up 128MB capacity. This will store around 34 MP3 tracks. It's also got Bluetooth and a camera with flash. More here Came straight to this page? Visit www.TechDigest.tv for all the latest news.

Panasonic X500
Just got time to tell you about Panasonic's latest handset. The Panasonic X500 uses that tried and tested sliding design favoured by all fashion handset manufacturers (it's the sincerest form of flattery, Siemens, honest). Panasonic does a good line in tiny handsets, and the X500 is no different, with credit card-like dimensions. Its major selling point seems to be the VGA camera and flash light for night time shooting. The handset's been designed to be turned sideways and held like a camera when taking pics (imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, Sony Ericsson, honest).
Inevitably, the red one's not available in the UK, but you can get the silver handset for free on contract from Phones4U. Keep reading for a full list of specs.
