Mini Mobile - When we first heard that the Pantech C300 promised to be the world's smallest flip phone, we weren't terribly excited. Since it seems like every phone these days is hoping to claim the title of the world's thinnest handset, we've grown accustomed to seeing increasingly tiny models. But when we finally got the C300 out of the box, we hardly could believe what we were seeing. This phone isn't just small, it's downright miniature. In fact, it's so small, it's almost a bit ridiculous, and you might mistake it for a child's toy or a prop from the movie Zoolander. Measuring 2.7 by 1.7 by 0.7 inches and weighing a petite 2.5 ounces, it will fit in any pocket, even with its stubby external antenna. Adult hands will find it much too Lilliputian for comfortable use--it's impossible to hold between your head and shoulder--but teens and Hello Kitty aficionados should take to it straight away. It's sold only for Cingular's Go Phone prepaid service, and it's a bit pricey at $119.
