HD7 Pictured on T-Mobile USA?

OK, we’re hoping this will all make a bit more sense tomorrow. This apparently us the T-Mobile version of the Schubert. It looks a little different than the earlier shots but, at a guess, it could be that this is a US version. Honestly, I’ll just be glad when tomorrow is done and we can piece this all together.

Slightly different specs are shown in this TmoNews article – 16GB of storage, 576MB of RAM and a $199 price-tag in the US.


Right, that’s enough – let’s get on that train to London now shall we?

Windows Mobile 6.5 Helping Drive Sales

peter_chou_htc_ceoIs Windows Mobile 6.5 is helping to drive sales of HTC Windows Phones? According to HTC CEO Peter Chou:

HTC is currently cooperating with a number of carriers in Europe, including T-Mobile, Orange and Vodafone, to promote the sales of HTC HD2 and demand from those carriers is outpacing supply, Chou indicated.

Digitimes and HTCPedia read this as evidence that WinMo 6.5 is helping to sell devices, but you’ve got to wonder: HTC makes excellent quality devices, has completely replaced the Windows Mobile interface with TouchFlo, TouchFlo 3D, and now Sense and just re-branded themselves and launched a new, expanded marketing campaign… so is this demand for their devices thanks to Windows Mobile 6.5 or in spite of it?

Anyone care to hazard a guess?

HTC HD2 Coming to North America in Early 2010

hd2_hands_80018

Peter Chou (CEO of HTC) and Steve Ballmer held a joint conference today in Taiwan to officially announce one of the most highly anticipated Windows Phones so far: the HTC HD2. Much has been leaked and learned already about the HD2’s powerful 1Ghz processor, it’s massive 4.3″ capacitive WVGA touchscreen, and that it will be the first HTC Windows Phone to sport Sense instead of TouchFlo, but this announcement makes it official:

The HTC HD2 shows what’s possible through our close partnership with HTC and it breaks new ground for Windows phones by delivering a beautiful multi-touch screen that people will love.

So says Mr. Ballmer. The full press release (after the jump) says the HTC HD2 is now shipping in Asia and will be shipping to North America in “early 2010″. Honestly, I can’t wait to get my hands on one of these!

HTC Launches New Ad Campaign: Its All About You!

[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/K-QhxjJFl7E" width="425" height="344" allowfullscreen="true" fvars="fs=1" /]

HTC, in their quest to usurp the OS makers and convince people to just buy HTC, have begun an ad campaign to promote their new “quietly brilliant” slogan, which replaced the old “HTC Innovation” slogan earlier this month. This new ad, which is OS-agnostic, simply promotes the HTC brand, reflects HTC’s own quietly brilliant strategy over the past two years to produce phones that provide the same experience regardless of the OS underneath. Another excellent step by HTC! The more irrelevant the OS (thanks to the common Sense UI across all HTC devices) the more those OS makers will have to up their game.

Spb Releases Spb Mobile Shell 3.5

spb_mobile_35Spb Software House has just released an upgrade to their incredibly popular Windows Mobile UI replacement, Spb Mobile Shell. The new version, Spb Mobile Shell 3.5, features additional support for social networks like Facebook and Twitter, enhanced Internet searching with instant suggestions and many others enhancements.

Spb Mobile Shell v.3 users can upgrade for free here, or you can download or buy a copy of Spb Mobile Shell over here at Mobihand.

Perhaps just as interestingly, Spb has announced several OEM deals with big Chinese companies, specifically ZTE, Huawei and the biggest China-based OEM K-Touch. SPB also announced signing of a significant agreement with MediaTek, a leading fabless semiconductor company for wireless communications and digital multimedia solutions.

Sebastian-Justus Schmidt, CEO of SPB Software says: “This version clearly shows where SPB Software is going. We are on the way to make it even more flexible for user personalization, as well as being a great partner for phone manufacturers and mobile operators. The fast changing market needs the right user interface with great flexibility in customization. And we are well prepared for the demand.”

This is a great strategy for Spb. Much like HTC is taking charge of it’s own Windows Mobile destiny with TouchFlo (and soon the new Windows Mobile version of Sense), Spb can stake out it’s territory by partnering with OEM manufacturers and others. Looking forward to seeing where this leads!
