When will BenQ offer a mobile device?
Back in June of this past year, BenQ took over the Siemens mobile brand. As most know, the Siemens sx66 Pocket PC phone has been my primary phone since March. Siemens did a nice job on this device, and I’ve been waiting to see what they come up with next. When BenQ took over, they also acquired the rights to use the brand name for 18 months. During an interview during the conferences held at the time, The CEO of BenQ said “The Siemens brand will continue to exist for 18 months after the partnership kicks off. At that point, the time will be right to bring products to market under a joint brand name.” In addition, customer services will continue to operate unchanged and there will be no local change of management”. I’ve been browsing both the main BenQ site and the US BenQ site. Just wondering what they plan on doing with the acquisition. It’s been six months, and nary a word.
