Also reacting to the appearance of the images of the new 3 Skypephone, aka IM2, are MobileArsenal and Fresh Plastic.

It looks as if MobileArsenal took the lead on the news from the same source as ourselves, Just Another Mobile Phone Blog. Fresh Plastic may have been slightly behind the curve (his own admission), but has done a little delving and subsequent speculating.

The mention of the pictures coming via the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has FP’s Ant UK proposing that it may be quad-band. He also did some research; a quick Google here and there returned this Italian site. Translators aside, (I, like Ant, have a trust issue with such services) anyone got an idea?
