Vishnu Vardhan, HTC's exec for the Middle East and North Africa, says that the Shift will see an official release at Dubai's GITEX Technology Week starting September 8. That's not all, though; Vardhan says that four "brand new products" will see the light of day for the first time at GITEX"</i><br /><br />The HTC Shift looks like it may bring the UMPC market some respectability with it's 30 GB drive, dual operating systems, and 1 GB of RAM. GITEX is always an interesting show to watch for what is unveiled, and it looks like this year will be no exception.
