E-TEN Information Systems will launch the Glofiish M700 Pocket PC Phone into European markets during Mobile Office 2006. The launch will be orchestrated in partnership with E-TEN distributor, PARTELEC. Other E-TEN products, including the Glofiish X500, will also be on show at the event. The event will be held from 5 to 7 December.

The Glofiish M700 is their first E-TEN Pocket PC Phone to feature a sliding keyboard. The device gives mobile users access to a full-set of QWERTY keys for quick data input and easy messaging while on the move, while still remaining compact and portable. The Windows Mobile 5.0 based product supports all of the most common communication and wireless data transmission standards; GSM, GPRS, EDGE, IEEE802.11b/g, Bluetooth and GPS.

Also on show at the event will be E-TEN's other consumer focused device, the Glofiish X500. Released early in November, the Glofiish X500 boasts an almost identical feature set to the Glofiish M700 with just the latter's sliding keyboard being the major differentiating feature. By keeping the Glofiish X500 limited to just the traditional Pocket PC input methods (touch-screen, stylus, and soft-keys) E-TEN was able to reduce the size of the device to just 15.5mm thin.
