High Tech Computer (HTC) is probably one of the biggest manufacturers of Windows Mobile-based devices in the world, even if the phone you happen to be rocking doesn’t have any HTC badging on it. The company has made quite the effort in getting their own name out there recently and this latest trio of handsets will surely win over more than a few hearts. And all three boast Windows Mobile 6.
The Touch Dual was previously being bandied about on the blogosphere simply as the Touch II. Basically, the HTC Touch Dual takes the beautiful TouchFLO interface found on the original Touch and adds in a slide-out numeric keypad. This is the first HTC phone to have a vertical slider. Other niceties, as you recall, include HSDPA, 2 megapixel camera, microSD expansion, and tri-band GSM/EDGE.
The HTC S730 can be thought of in any many ways as an upgrade to the HTC Vox platform. In its closed position, it looks like a candybar, but a QWERTY keyboard slides out the side for easy mobile emails and text messages. Like the Touch Dual, the S730 also has HSDPA. Rounding out the specs are GSM/EDGE, WiFi, and Bluetooth 2.0.
Last but not least is the business-oriented HTC P6500 with Windows Mobile 6 Professional. The 3.5-inch screen is quite large and the 3 megapixel camera with autofocus sounds pretty good too. Other features include integrated GPS, HSDPA, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, dual SD card slots, 1GB internal memory, and a fingerprint scanner.

A new entry has taken place in the family of BlackBerry.While it hardly comes as much of a surprise after leaks from both Sprint and Verizon, RIM has finally made its long-awaited CDMA-enabled Pearl 8130 (a.k.a. “Pearl 2″) official, with it likely headed to the aforementioned carries sometime between now and Thanksgiving. As we had heard before, this one comes with built-in GPS (which Boy Genius speculates will be disabled on Verizon’s offering), along with A2DP/AVRCP Bluetooth, a 2 megapixel camera (with video recording capability), and a standard 3.5mm audio jack. According to RIM, you can also expect an overhauled interface, complete with an updated browser and some improved multimedia features, including the ability to create and edit playlists. Still no word on a price, but we’d expect Sprint and Verizon to be doling out that info before too long.
“With its unique blend of functionality and design, the BlackBerry Pearl smartphone has been turning heads and winning praise from business users and consumers alike,” said Mike Lazaridis, President and Co-CEO at Research In Motion. “The new BlackBerry Pearl 8130 builds on all the great features and aesthetic design that people love about the BlackBerry Pearl and offers an exceptional new choice for CDMA customers that are looking to upgrade their mobile phone.”
The BlackBerry Pearl 8130 includes all of the features that have made BlackBerry® smartphones popular among mobile users, including unrivaled email and messaging (SMS, IM, MMS*), web browsing, organizer and more. The new smartphone also expands on its communications and multimedia features and presents the entire offering with a striking new software interface.
