ESI 250 deskphone wants to make business smartphones easy (hands-on)

Over at Showstoppers, ESI offered up an Android-based desktop phones hoping to bring the world of Google's OS kicking and screaming onto a business desk near you. The ESI 250 runs on Android Froyo (2.2), with a XX-inch color display capable of running a limited bunch of (ESI-vetted) third-party Android apps like Evernote, text messaging and visible voicemail and reminders.

The enterprise phone is pegged for a Q2 launch, with prices pegged at a suitably business-like price of $300 per unit.
