It is most certainly going to T-Mobile USA. While Juno is the codename, we haven’t got word of the official launch name yet. It’s a Windows Mobile based device and has a "consumer friendly interface, most likely HTC’s TouchFlo," says our source. He also goes on to tell us that it will have a QWERTY keyboard, but from the looks of things, is that SureType? T-Mobz should be positioning this phone as an "adult Sidekick" and the phone has a "wow screen and interface." It is currently a T-Mobile USA exclusive and set for a mid to late October release."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/hisham-20070913-bgr_htcjuno.jpg" /><br /><br />Colour me confused, but after much internal debate I'm posting this on the off-chance someone here can clear up my confusion. The initial reports (<a href="http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/08/23/what-exactly-is-the-htc-juno/">here, among others</a>) on the Juno were of a Smartphone device, the GSM equivalent of the HTC Vox - but TouchFlo requires a touchscreen so maybe its a Pro device after all. It was also supposed to be an AT&amp;T exclusive, but now T-Mobile is in the picture somehow :?. Again, the Juno is supposed to have a QWERTY keyboard, but the mockup looks like numpad only - my head hurts. Will the <i>real</i> HTC Juno please stand up?

Well, judging from the picture, this certainly ain't gonna be TouchFLO equiped device...
It has a 'home' and a 'back' button, which implies it's gonna be 'standard' WM device aka a Smartphone :)

That would be a real hard thing to do on device without touchscreen (what WM 'standard' would imply).... :?
