Wired got a hands on with the mysterious Saygus Vphone<\/a>, that popped up over at the FCC back in November. They say the Android phone is capable of making video calls—even over EDGE.<\/p>

Saygus CEO Chad Sayers told Wired that the company developed a proprietary video algorithm for the CDMA handset that allows them to transfer video data at 18-22 frames per second over EDGE and up to 30 fps over 3G. Sayers also said that 10,000 minutes of video conferencing would only take up 5 gigabytes of bandwidth.<\/p>

As for specs, the Vphone has a 3.5-inch screen, a 624 MHz Marvell processor, and a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and flash. Wired says the phone looks and feels like the droid, but with a better keyboard. And apparently the Vphone is in carrier testing (possibly Verizon?). [Wired<\/a>]<\/p>
