Not that the Xda terra is - hardware-wise - anything new (since it is based on HTC'S Herald reference design), but it's O2 Germany's first available Windows Mobile 6 Pocket PC Phone Edition (with Windows Mobile 6 known as Professional smartphone) and the first available Windows Mobile 6 PDA in the market anyway. Features stay unchanged to the original Windows Mobile 5 Herald..."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/o2_xda_terra_front_small.jpg" /><br /><br />According to Arne Hess, the German-only 200 MHz Xda terra will have quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE, WiFI b/g and Bluetooth 2.0 and includes 64 MB RAM and 128 MB ROM plus expansion through a microSD slot.
