Atlanta, GA- In 2010 Pantech a company no one has ever heard of and no one could care less about released their new phone the Pantech Link.
It is without a doubt the crappiest phone anyone could buy. Pantech is a South Korean company with its wireless headquarters in Atlanta. I went there to have a few words with their founder.
Beyong-Yeop Park, the founder and CEO rushed out of the office building when I pulled into the nearly deserted parking lot screaming in an almost incomprehensible whirl all newish slang and foreign who knows whats its. This is what it sounded like, “Cayote Roof, you may it to my cribby! I so excite that you decide to pay me visitation! Are you read for my new jelly?”
Not having any idea how to respond I told him “yes, very much excite.”
Beyong-Yeop Park told me to “Please come in quick lee.”
I did.
The Pantech Link is a phone that tries to be a smart phone, but comes off more as a really, really stupid phone with a self righteous attitude. Park continued to explain to me the great gadget they created in his usual ‘WTF’ manner. (I tried to make the following a little more understandable while keeping his flare for words) “There are two feature we are extremely excited about, Canine! The first one has to do with text messaging. When you are type a message, the send butt is so close to the butt that take you out of the message that if you hit the butt it will take you right way from your message and it doesn’t save to a draft! The whole message is just gone! We wove it! Oh, and if you decide you don’t want to send a message once you press send, it’s too late, it’s gawn! The second feat we are so pump about is how over 65% of the buttons on the phone take you stray to the world wide internets web infromation. Even if you don’t have that on your plan, bam! INTERNET!”
All in all it’s the worst phone to come out in a long time, possibly the worst phone ever.
Stay Tuned.
