We haven’t heard a solitary peep out of IXI Mobile in a hot minute, even though its Ogo line — once a member of Cingular’s lineup — had found some niche popularity among teens and the deaf community. We’d even thought they’d gone into R&D hibernation, actually, but apparently not — they’re innovating. They’re innovating so much, actually, that they’ve innovated themselves right out of the landscape clamshell form factor that made the Ogo famous. This Inventec-sourced CC-10 we just spotted in the FCC looks more Centro than Ogo, though all of the original’s features — notably strong IM and social networking support — carry on through to the new model. At any rate, we can say that IXI doesn’t intend to break back into the North American market — at least not with this exact unit, anyway — since GSM 1900 and Bluetooth are the only features it bothered testing.
