Hasta La Gadget!

Haier may not exactly be breaking any new ground with the outward appearance, but its new H7 handset is an Android phone (which still counts for something these days), and it’s reportedly on track for a launch as soon as this September — in France, at least. Unfortunately, the phone the company had on display at CommunicAsia 2009 was just a non-functional mockup, but the final model will apparently pack a 2.8-inch touchscreen, along with a 2-megapixel camera, built-in GPS, WiFi, and, most importantly, Android 2.0 (a.k.a Donut) — assuming it’s available by the time the phone launches. No word on any release plans beyond France just yet, but the H7 will reportedly run $150 — on contract, presumably.
