Default HTC X7510 Unboxing

http://www.tracyandmatt.co.uk/blogs...vantage_unboxed

"The overall look of the Advantage hasn't changed much but it's 'under the bonnet' that you'll see the biggest difference. There's now a 16GB Hard Drive included and Windows Mobile 6.1 professional for starters. The other big change is to the keyboard. Earlier versions of the Advantage had proper tactile keys but this new model has been replaced with a flat membrane style keyboard which would look more at home on a ZX81! It does make touch typing something of an issue."



I like the new accessories included - a full pouch to keep the leather case in plus space for cables, as well as the 4-in-1 cable which you need to add USB host (this was only available separately for the x7501). Also the layout of the new keyboard is better with a full row of number keys, so there's no need to mess about with the function key if you're inputing numbers. I'll reserve judgement on the new membrane-style keyboard until I've actually tried one - I don't see how it could be much worse than the current chicklet style.
