Modu may be down, but unlike one Ricky Hatton, it ain’t out. We haven’t heard a whole heck of a lot from the niche handset maker since it handed out pink slips to around one-forth of its workforce, but now that things are looking a bit brighter, it seems as if innovation is back in full force. In fact, a new report on the outfit has it that its next cellphone will pack a touchscreen in order to fit the mold of today’s finger-friendly array. Aside from being “iPhone like” (its words, not ours), little else is known about the forthcoming device, though we’re told that development should be complete in around eight months. So, anyone wagering that R&D accelerates that just a touch to get this thing out by CES 2010?
