They promise a full review in the coming days, but for now you'll have to settle with some nice device pictures and fancy screenshots. The Qtek 8310/8300 is also known under the code name of Tornado. It will be interesting to see if i-mate, Orange, or Audiovox pick up this new HTC model as well. :D

They're always getting their hands on the latest and greatest. ;) Anyway, no words (or drool) can describe the 8310. My only concern is that the top row of buttons is a little too small and closely-packed to the other buttons, which at the end of the day, may require a bit of getting used to. I'm not the sort of person with huge fingers so it doesn't really bother me, but I know some of you aren't in the same boat. At any rate, I'll need to see it in the flesh before I make anymore complaints.

Oh yeah, black is in! :rock on dude!:

WiFi module is optional. 8) :? I wonder how that works?

Yeah i wonder that too. Thought that it would be built in?

My biggest concern is when/IF they ever come to the US and in the 850 variety (although I could live with quad :D ). Otherwise it looks like a great device.

*sits and patiently awaits....*

I like it I like it I want one.

Get in the line, buddy! :)

I think those of us who ran out and got the MPx220 have paid their dues. I think I got one before you Kris therefore....

I'm first! :multi:

I think that means the mobile operator will have the option to sell the phone with or without the WiFi module.

Unfortunately, the hit to their bottom line due to (potentially) reduced data usage may convince them to offer it without... Oh well there is always unbranded versions!

T-Mobile! T-Mobile! T-Mobile!

I agree, the carriers might be concerned that apps like Skype may take the revenue away from them. T-Mobile seems to be the only carrier that can really gain from this Smartphone.
