Like the Toshiba TG01, the F1 packs a Snapdragon chipset clocked at 1GHz. It also features a 3.8", 480 x 800 touch screen, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, HSDPA, a 5.0-megapixel camera with flash, GPS, an FM tuner, and a 3.5mm headphone jack (you hear that, HTC?).

I know people bluetooth is fine, but I personally am not a fan. - Large, high resolution touch screen (though I doubt this is capacitive since wm 6.5 doesn't officially support it) Looks great. Hopefully they offer this unlocked with US 3G bands.

My educated guess is that we will not see a WM7 device available for sale before 2011.
I would love to be wrong though...
