Puma and Sagem team up on sports phone

One of the convergent features of most smartphone platforms now is that they enable users to monitor their sporting activities with the use of technologies like GPS and a stopwatch.

Now, Puma has teamed up with phone manufacturer Sagem to bring all manner of sports features into one device built for the purpose. The (aptly named), Puma Phone packs a 2.8" touchscreen, HSPA data, 5 hours talk-time and 350 hours stand-by time, a solar panel on the back for green and on-the-fly charging (we're surprised more devices don't do this actually) as well as a 115g weight.

As for the sports features, the handset crams in a GPS tracker, compass, geotagging, routing and mapping for location duties as well as a pedometer and stopwatch.

It will be available across Europe from April.
