Alcatel Cheap OT-707 and OT-800 Touch Screen Handset

The new touchscreen Alcatel OT-707 mobile phone is a rather small and thin device, measuring only 95 x 53 x 13 mm, which sports a rounded case, and it does not seem to include too many features, although its good looks and the touchscreen display should see some traction from those going after a cheap handset with touch capabilities.
