Pantech Sky Wind Has Blow Controls

Most mobile phone users out there haven’t handled a Pantech phone before, but that’s probably because the phones aren’t too widespread outside of South Korea, though it didn’t stop the company from shipping more than 10 million handsets last year. The latest handset from Pantech is the Sky Wind, and as its name implies, it has something to do with wind. The phone actually features “blow-controls”, which allows users to get the phone to switch wallpapers, adjust the phone’s brightness or even snap a photo by blowing over the phone’s microphone. The handset has an Emotion Engine, which is developed by Fantalog Interactive. Of course, all of this is certainly a gimmick, but it’s a cool gimmick nonetheless. The Pantech Sky Wind will be available in February, though there isn’t any official pricing on the device just yet.
