Intel brings Medfield to Russia with the MegaFon Mint

[![Intel brings Medfield to Russia with the MegaFon Mint ][1] ][2]

The Intel-powered mobile machine [has been][3] slowly [picking up pace][4] this year. Now, the chip-maker has signed up a new partner in the form of Russian operator [MegaFon][5]. So, it looks like we might see another (and we must say [familiar looking][6]) network-branded Android [Medfield][7] phone in the form of the MegaFon Mint. The spec-sheet, again, poses no surprises, with the same 1.6GHz Z2460 chip 1GB of RAM, 4-inch screen and 8-megapixel camera only further enhancing the sense of deja vu. What will be unique, however, is the price, which looks set at 17,990 Rubles (about $565), available from today.
