The P6500 is one mean beast. It's not the most aesthetically pleasing device around, but when you're targeting enterprise, none of that matters. Check the specs: up to 1GB internal storage, quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE and tri-band UMTS/HSDPA connectivity, Bluetooth 2.0, Wi-Fi, GPS, a 3.5" anti-glare touch screen, a 3.0MP auto-focus camera, fingerprint and barcode scanning capabilities, two SDIO slots, and Windows Mobile 6 Professional. No details on pricing yet, although we're going to hazard a guess and say that this one won't put you in your accountant's good books. Make the jump for more pictures.
Update: Expansys [Affiliate] is quoting �599.95, which translates to a little over US$1200.

Lots of functionality, memory, CPU, GPS.
But why, why is there no mentioning of screen resolution?!
Just says:
"The large 3.5" anti-glare screen enables images, media and data to be viewed with complete clarity."
From the screenshot, however, it seems that this device still got a QVGA screen, even if it's 3.5"... May be that's why... a bit shy to write "240*320" again...
After using a Universal with VGA screen there seems to be no coming back... and despite of many new HTC models released, there is consistently a lack of decent VGA-enabled PDA/Smartphones with same functionality.

The screen shot is a photoshop mockup, so you cannot tell anything from it. Don't believe me? Look at the hi-res version of the first screen shot above. Look close at the bottom right corner of the pda screen ... it's floating above the device.
