O2 Xda Stealth Photo Review
We reported on this a while ago, and phonedaily.com have come up with some closeups of the new Xda Stealth. Unfortunately, full-page translations don't appear to work on the phonedaily.com site, so you'll have to settle for untranslated version - but then (c'mon admit it), you're just there for the pictures right?

This device offers some nice features, but there's so much wasted space above and below the screen. Reduce the size of the gargantuan buttons and make the device just a tad wider, and you could transform that 2.4" LCD into 2.8". Oh well, nothing's ever perfect.

2.4" is just right, for me.
For me, 2.4" is just right. Attempting to get 2.8" in display real estate pushes you to a too wide device such as HP's solution. I think they fail in their size. < 1" Thickness is ok for a phone, but more than 2.4" width, kills it for me. Treo, Samsung 730, 830 have it right. HP 65xx and 69xx have it wrong.
IMHO.
Cheers,
Daryl

I was really starting to set my sights on this phone but after reading that Girls Gone Mobile review I'm afraid I'll have to wait. Funny how just about every other smartphone or PPC phone that comes out just keeps me going back to wanting the Treo 750.

not that stealthy
I just posted some photos of the Stealth here: http://www.kaitech.hk/content/view/212/56/
Didn't get to play with it in depth, so no screenshots. 
Yes, the the screen is 2.4", but look at the comparison shot between the Stealth and the 838Pro. The Stealth is not as small as you think!! (definitely not as small as I thought)
