The cutting-edge phone utilizes exclusive neno user interface and zForce optical touch screen technology, offering users an intuitive and easy to navigate experience. The most recent development in mobile phone technology is the emerging popularity of the touch screen. Neonode N2 uses the most advanced touch screen technology, the zForce optical touch screen. It doesn’t need any hard pressure or stylus, but works quickly and accurately by reacting to sweeping and tapping signals on the screen. The intuitively organized user interface, neno, also enables the applications and contents to be accessed fast and easily. “Our main focus is the user experience, which is the true key behind Neonode N2. It ranges from how you are able to use it, which we have enabled through zForce the optical screen, down to the easiness your applications and content can be accessed, which we solved through the combination of zForce and neon, the user interface,” said Mikael Hagman, President and CEO of Neonode. Neonode N2 has been launched in Europe during the autumn to critical acclaim. Neonode N2’s United States phone carrier and retail availability will be announced the second quarter 2008.
