Few concept phones have actually reached the stage of being widely known as the handset that’s “almost available”. Everyone’s heard about them, but the real devices are nowhere to be seen. Sadly, this is also the case of Asus Aura, designed by Egy Studio and one of the finest pieces of hardware I’ve ever seen.

The Aura is a slider with a QWERTY keyboard and a 3.9″ touchscreen that would even make the iPhone jealous. There’s also a 2 megapixel camera in there, a microSD memory card slot and the usual GSM/UMTS/HSDPA/Wi-Fi support and Bluetooth connectivity. All of this specs are hidden by a 97 x 49 x 6 (!!) mm body…

Well, what can we say? Asus, please ditch that Eee PC series and start making this beauty! We’ll buy it!
