Who would have thought that car manufacture Hyundai also has a hand in mobile phone development? Certainly I did not, but it turns out to be true.

Hyundai MB400 Mobile Phone

Hyundai has been in the mobile phone market for quite a while and surprisingly, many people including myself had no idea this was going down. From what I have gathered, Hyundai has a mobile and telecommunication arm in a few Asian and European Countries that go by the name Hyundai Mobile, knowing that now I'm still surprised most people wasn't kept a float with what Hyundai got going in the deadly mobile arena.

All that is about change gladly, Hyundai is on the verge of pushing out phones and services into the UK, probably won't be too long before we see Hyundai heading State side. The first mobile handset schedule to be released in the UK will be a Windows Mobile phone with the name Hyundai Blightly pasted all over, this device will be apart of four categories of Hyundai phones: Basic, Lifestyle, Music, and Innovation.

So far Hyundai has planned a maximum of ten handsets to be launched in the UK after the Blightly, pushing up the final body count to 11 I say not bad, if they get to pull it off. You can visit the Hyundai Mobile UK website for a sneak peek, make that a sneak peek at nothing as the site is still under construction.
