“Kogan Technologies founder, Ruslan Kogan, said the
Agora is proof that his company is achieving its goal of offering
the latest technology at the best value prices.

“”The Kogan team has been working very hard to bring out the
exciting new phones powered by Google’s Android operating system at
the right mix of price and specifications,” Kogan said.

“We’ve been listening to customers through our blog, and crammed
in all the features we possibly could. The end result is the best
value, fully-featured phone in the Australian market.”

“An Australian-based electronics company will ship the world’s
second Google Android phone, dubbed “Agora”. It has a Blackberry
Bold-esque form factor, and will ship on January 29. Interestingly,
it will be very affordable at $A299 ($US192, GBP129, E151) and will
be sold without a contract to any telco.
