It'll be a solid update to the original Shadow but nothing earth-shattering: Windows Mobile 6.1 will be there, but as of right now it doesn't look like it will support T-Mobile's still-young 3G network."</em></p><p> </p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/zt/auto/1220976031.usr8.jpg" /></p><p> </p><p>There really isn't much to say about the T-Mobile Shadow II, also codenamed HTC Cleopatra. Minus a slightly modified body style and the upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 there really isn't much to look forward to. There is however one really cool feature to look forward too. The included Wi-Fi capabilities will allow you to use the T-Mobile @home service which is T-Mobile's VOIP offerings. If anything this device kind of feels like the release of Windows ME to hold off the hounds until Windows XP was finished. Also with HTC's new push on design and their line of Touch Diamond devices, even though it is slick looking, this device feels like a fish out of water.</p>
