Well well, look what we have here... provisional specs for the MDA Compact IV (announced today at MWC), which is expected to ship on T-Mobile around May 2008, and is NOT the HTC Polaris!
Feast your eyes on this...

QUOTE(Monolithix @ Feb 12 2008, 16:34)  Not without a keyboard it doesn't I concur, i've been waiting for a killer device from HTC for ages now, and they keep missing the bar, yet they're obviously able to make one, and then give it to Sony Ericsson! If the Xperia is as good as its specs lead us to believe, future HTC phones will really have to get good to even be considered, let alone purchased. What's going on! I think that secretly they have a team of people who dream up spec sheets, then remove a couple of features, then hand it to the design team. |

I suppose their Compact range never has keyboards, that's the Vario range right? The specs do look quite good though; I'm interested to see what the device looks like and if HTC are manufacturing it!

Correct.
I understand HTC ARE manufacturing it, but this isn't 100% confirmed. P |

Cool - was coming over here for a moan about the lack of a worthwile upgrade from my Trinity (My brothers Orbit 2 seems bigger, less robust and clunkier) and seem to have stumbled accross the answer. Now, if only I could get this on Orange....
...I know what your thinking - but I'm a plasterer and I NEED Orange care. |

Paul,
Was, from what you saw, the device as small as a Touch or was it more like the current MDAC3? Regards |

Hmmm, my TMobile contract is up in three weeks, and I've been toying with switching back to Winmo when it gets a decent VGA screened device.
Don't really fancy waiting until May though, and TMobile's 3g has been playing up round here something chronic. Decisions decisions... |

Sweet !! I'd be happy to wait for this baby !!
Anybody willing to guess how much it might cost ?? Would it be the same price as the Compact 3 is now ?? Also, isn't there a new version of the Vario on it way ?? -------------------- Perfect Device = Samsung M8920 with WinMo7 plus FM & TV Tuners !! |
