Re: 2009 HTC OEM Products

i just don't like the sharp corners of the Firestone. The rounded corners of the Rhodium is what I like

Re: 2009 HTC OEM Products

If these are to be released on 09, I don't see them coming with WM 7. Maybe WM 6.5, but I would say it is a pretty safre bet that there will not be a Verizon device running WM 7 until 2010. The WM 7 beta isn't even out yet (or 6.5 for that matter) and we know how slow they are with getting out devices once a new OS has been released.

Re: 2009 HTC OEM Products



Here is a better picture of the Iolite...

I found this info here... As quoted from that site, specs include...

Quote:
Qualcomm MSM7225, 528MHz
512MB ROM, 288 RAM
2.8 Inch, 240x320 screen (really?)
3.2mp camera
MicroSD
Quad-band EDGE, 3G
Bluetooth, Wifi
1100 mAh battery good for 400 minutes of talktime
102mmx53.5mmx14.5mm
103 grams
Also.. Here is there speculation.. They are usually pretty good at fore-sight.. But it is speculation so take it with a grain of salt...
Quote:
We're not sure, but the above specs seem like a pretty clear indication that we're looking at a Euro-only replacement for the HTC Cruise. We're seeing a similar scrollwheel/d-pad and also a new button -- the "HTC Footprints button," which smells like a dedicated GPS button to us. The Cruise, you may recall, was marketed primarily as a GPS Device. With a dedicated GPS-esque button on the Iolite and the similar form factor, we're guessing that the Iolite is aiming at the same niche.

Re: 2009 HTC OEM Products

I'll bet the Whitestone W is the US version, W stands for WiMax and that explains the antenna. Furthermore, unlike the Rhodium/Tungsten/Topaz etc, Firestone and Whitestone are not release names but production names, which means we are seeing in-development models. No doubt only Sprint would get the Whitestone (Sprint = WiMax in US), and that it will be redesigned prior to its release. Also curious, the Whitestone has five buttons at the bottom, or at least five icons.

Re: 2009 HTC OEM Products

Hi there,

New here, but I'm gonna risk it and dive right in (deep end and all ).

I've seen other websites make mention of a 'Barium' model, which seems to be missing here. Here is one example:

Johnnycakes, don't those handsets all look WVGA ?
