Up Close and Personal with the HTC Universal
Taiwanese site, Mobile Life, has just posted a plethora of HTC Universal pictures. No translation needed here. Just sit back and marvel at its beauty. :drool:

Wow!
If there is a better configured pocket computer or phone in the world I can't imagine what it could be. This baby has everything. PDAs have arrived BIG TIME!

well today if I had to get one I would get the i-mate jam or jam pda2 simple because I could run WM5 and have it today. It is not better but is is something I can hold in my hand and play with right now. This unit will still take months too find its way onto this side of the pond.

The rumor I heard is that there will be both an Europe and a North American release, the latter with 850 instead of 900.

It's beautiful, has salivation-worthy specs, but for me the intangibles are more important.
How does it feel in the hand? Does it need an twice hourly reset? Does the silver paint come off after a month of use?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe I saw the character for "flimsier than Aunt Jiang-mei's new Zhonghua" several times in the write-up.
:razzing:
