NEC’s waterproof MEDIAS N-06C to get a sprinkle of Gingerbread and 1GHz power

The MEDIAS N-04C might well be the hotness on earth of super slim phones without delay, but when you’re in quest of something with a bit more oomph and protection against water, then NEC’s also got you covered. In step with a pamphlet obtained by datacider, the MEDIAS family will soon be welcoming a Gingerbread-powered N-06C, which closely resembles the N-04C other than the additional 0.2mm thickness plus 10g weight, in addition to touch buttons rather than physical ones. But what we actually care about listed here are the IPX5 and IPX7 waterproof ratings, meaning this 7.9mm-thick Android’s been tested against small water jets and one-meter immersion, respectively. At the inside, aside from the speedier 1GHz chip and 14Mbps FOMA download speed, the remainder are pretty well what we’ve seen before: 4-inch 480 x 854 LCD, 1GB ROM, 512MB RAM, 802.11n WiFi, and 5 megapixel camera with 720p video. There’s no clear indication on a release date, but you’re welcome to kill your time by trying out the whole spec sheet after the break.
