"The first ever PDA-phone to boast a dedicated graphics processor, the Xda Flame features the advanced NVIDIA® GoForce® GPU for ultra-crisp graphics. 2 GB of onboard memory and an Intel® XScale® PXA 270 Processor running at 520 MHz, powers an unsurpassed user experience. Enjoy movies on the go or simply achieve more with the generous 3.6" VGA touchscreen."



Our favourite beast, the Xda Flame, is now up on SeeO2.com, complete with pictures, a Flash demonstration, and a specs list. Alongside all that is some eye-candy, courtesy of the folks at MrPalm.com. It's worth noting that the Flame ships with Windows Mobile 5.0, although if recent news is anything to go by, there's probably a good chance O2 will give it some Windows Mobile 6 love. Anyone here thinking of purchasing one?

I think this will be a worthy Loox 720 upgrade. It has almost the same specs but a lot more features and OS upgrade. The only concern is the battery. I don't think people will be happy with it. The one on my Loox has even more mAh and when I switch on WiFi you can literally watch it sucking the battery life out ;-D

Well, I can surely hear a lot of Dell Axim users dieing to get hands on O2 Flame. This device has everything, IMHO. Big screen, VGA, tv-out, usb master-feature, 'powerful' graphic card, 2GB ROM, 128MB RAM, FM radio etc and etc

I love it !!

What exactly does this mean:

"Supports 262K colours (65,536 effective)"

So it's basically 65k colors like most other modern PPCs? Could they just as easily say "Supports 4 billion colours (65,536 effective)"?

Or do the normal 65k color screens actually have less (say 16K) effective colors, so that this would be a step up from the norm?

For those of us who are late to the show on the Flame,..... that would be me,.... can you give me the skinny on this unit coming to the states? In my short glance at their web site it does not appear that it will.

I hope this will change!

I hear ya... No T-Mo 3G compatibility... No quad-band... It's a pretty device though..

Any chance ATT or Tmobile will offer this phone? I would like to believe but mostly likely it will be ebay or Expensys(ive).com

True but there is no Tmo 3G available at this point either

There isn't really any hardware for Tmo 3G at this time, but with no network either...

att/cingular perhaps but it will take it's sweet time to show up, especially since this is an O2 branded device for now which is in essence a competitor (although in another market) to att/Cingular.

I doubt Tmo would offer it before (unless) Tmo has its own 3G network ready and this HTC device is available with that frequency band.
