UK network operator 3 have released images, and technical specifications for their new Skypephone – the S2, and, by the looks of it, it won’t be all that much more expensive than the current one. Although, you won’t get a choice of colour this time around – only black will be available – initially at least. 3 say it will retail for under £70 on a non-contract (Pay As You Go) – the current Skypephone retails for £49.99, so it’s safe to presume the new one will retail for £69.99, or thereabouts. It will be available from August 18th.
The technical specifications are as follows:

Gemei has an exciting new PMP that is about to be released. The serial number comes after this gaming PMP, but the X780 has little in common with the X760. The X780 also represents Gemei’s first dip into the iPhone cloning business.

Their first try is a boxy 3-inch WQVGA PMP with TV out, FM tuner.

A small bunch of S60 Touch UI screens popped up today over at Mobile Royale, and they don’t look half bad. The design has big on-screen buttons, clean design, and easy to read menus.

The megapixel battle isn’t just heating up in Europe, but Asia too, it would seem. The manufacturer isn’t known, but the model number is – X908.

As is mainly the case with these handsets, don’t expect to see them readily available in Europe.
