The sliding lens cover when opened will switch the phone to camera mode automatically. The shutter and zoom controls will be on the top of the phone to give the phone a camera like feel. On the phone side of ZN5, it will have GSM/EDGE, Motorola’s CrystalTalk, FM radio, SMS, MMS, Bluetooth, WiFi, music player, speakerphone, personal organizer, 350MB of onboard memory and microSD card slot. The Zine ZN5 will first ship in China in July 2008 and is expected to roll out around the globe throughout the remainder of the year.
