Move along iPhone; make some space for the newest iClones launched in the touch-phone market. Philips has announced two upcoming touch-screen phones -- the X800, a full touch-screen phone, and the Windows Mobile-based Xenium X-Connect, a touch-screen handset.

The X800 will have a 2.9-inches 262K color TFT touch-screen display with 240 x 400 pixels (wide QVGA) resolution. It will offer 2G GSM connectivity, Class 10 GPRS; but no EDGE, HSCSD, or WLAN. It will have a 2 mega pixels auto-focus camera, microSD (TransFlash) memory card slot, Bluetooth, office documents reader, and handwriting recognition. The company claims it will offer up to 850 hours of standby time and up to 8 hours of talk-time.

The Xenium X-Connect meanwhile, will flaunt a slightly bigger 3-inches touch-screen. The phone will run on Windows Mobile 6, and will feature an integrated GPS-receiver, Bluetooth, USB, and microSD memory card slot. There'll also be GPRS, UMTS, and HSDPA for connectivity.

Not much has been revealed about either phone that includes their pricing and availability.
