Maybe not. Shouldn't be too difficult to find out whose battery this is. Although I must admit that 1) It would seem that if it is VLNC's then a press release would be needed as this is a material event 2)hard to see how VLNC could supply both Ericsson and Motorola
From the Ericsson WEB site
At CeBIT, Ericsson displayed the new T28 dual band mobile phone. The T28 is
based on new technology and design platforms and is set to mark a watershed
in the development of cellular technology. With advanced functionality,
including voice control, automatic world clock and new battery technology, the
T28 is one of the most fully featured phones. In combination with its futuristic
new design, it marks a new departure for Ericsson.
T28 is the smallest GSM mobile phone developed by Ericsson to date. It
boasts a full graphic display for easy readability and features an active flip,
which lets the user start and end a call. The interior of the phone contains new
functions, which will simplify efficient communications for the consumers. One
of the many new features is Voice Dialling, which lets you contact someone
simply by saying their name. Its keypad allows for easy and precise
manipulation and a side key gives rapid access to the numerous functions of
the phone. T-class consists of small and smart products with beautiful design.
The other T-class phone announced up until now is the T18, which will be
available Q2 1999.
Advanced software has been developed and utilised to ensure the user interface
is faster and easier to navigate. Navigation is made simple by the use of icons,
intuitive help texts and shortcuts to certain functions. Examples of some new
features are the Profiles, which lets you adjust the phone to different situations.
For instance you can restrict certain calls or allow certain calls to get through
during a meeting or choose different ring signals and volumes, including the
Vibrating Alert, for different incoming calls. The phone is developed to handle 37
languages.
Based on a new 3-volt platform the phone's components draw less current and
thereby ensure longer talk and standby times, an overall improvement in
performance and a smaller phone. Batteries are made from lithium polymer, a
technology that Ericsson is first to bring to the market. Talk time is estimated
at up to 4.5 hours and there will be a Standby time of up to 200 hours. The
technology featured in the T 28 supports the complete range of GSM phase 2 –
and where applicable GSM phase 2+ functions, including Extended GSM,
e-GSM, the new frequencies specified by the European Radiocommunications
Committee (ERC) for GSM use when additional spectrum is needed.
