Over at DIYPDA.com (via PPCGeeks via wmpoweruser) it seems there has been a rather significant leak of HTC's potential 2009 products!
Without further ado... see below... there's some nice lookers in there, including a new 3G excalibur Smartphone! The pictures are pretty grainy, and specs are very much unknown, but what tickles your fancy?  P                          -------------------- My current devices of choice - HTC Touch HD (Miri 6.5 v11), White T-Mobile G1 (Haykuro ADP1.5Hr3-A2SD), Samsung Blackjack II (6.1 stock)   |

WTF...
 and a yawnStill no replacement for my C500.. I wonder what kind of id.... that are in charge over at HTC Headquarters. Btw. - I spoke to a person from HTC telling me that they do not want another S310 with no succes.. I tried telling him that the S310 arrived at a market that was used to QVGA resolution, WIFI and GPS, but it was a no go.. Goodbye HTC - Samsung here I come.. -------------------- Having smoking areas in restaurants, is like having peeing areas in swimminpools..

I see no obvious contenders for being smartphones here, apart from perhaps the blackjack style factors. Nothing for those who want say for example an S740 without a keyboard.

QUOTE(Paul (MVP) @ Jan 12 2009, 18:30)  This isn't necessarily an exhaustive list of course... P I know - but seriously. HTC has been sitting on their hands for the last 3 years !!. Producing around 20 handsets more or less the same.. Maybe a littler heavier, and maybe in white, but generally pretty boring IMHO. I don´t want HTC to be another Nokia producing to many different handsets to comprehend, but just a candybar PHONE with GPS, WiFi, 3G, no xT9 and a good looking screen.. (And NO - I do not want a S710/S730/S740, ´cause I do not use the keyboard) Its not that difficult, and its actually cheap compared to slide-out keyboards etc etc etc.. /J |

I have said many times here and on the 'cast that I really would like a good old fashioned candybar again!

For some reason they do not want to produce a competitive candybar handset.. And then we have to accept that the only handset (right now) is the Samsung SGH i200 (sigh) |

Slightly off-topic then, but what would the panel recommend as a 3g/WM6 replacement for a C550?
I would go for a S740, but its quite tall and really not that much smaller than my Touch Pro. |

For the most part I think the current gen of smartphones reached a plateau with around the Kaiser - GPS, 2.8"+ screen, OS, camera, HSDPA - are all features standard. The Diamond and Touch Pro series tweaked the formula with better screens and designs, and there are different form factors - E71, Pre, iPhone but generally the hardware featureset is quite similar. Large intergrated memory is also standard post-iPhone but that was always available through mini-SDHC.

QUOTE but what would the panel recommend as a 3g/WM6 replacement for a C550? The HP Voice Messenger is potentially ideal - it has a Blackberry Pearlesque keyboard, and a few bugs that HP are stalling on getting fixed, but otherwise it's getting good feedback. It'd be my choice of phone if it was readily available on anything other than Vodafone Business - I'm not paying £300 for a new phone. |

What a boring line up. Just looks like they have put different cases on their current range. I hope I'm proved wrong when the specs get leaked!

An excalibur with 3G, GPS, WiFi + decent cam would be very compelling... QUOTE any reason other than un-confirmed / photoshopped pics of a restlyed handset to get excited about it? (i.e...'!') HSUPA? Not sure i'd say i'm excited about it, just hopeful!  P |

Is it just me or do the Maple, Cedar and Willow (HTC must have bought a book on trees recently...) look similar to the first Android prototype?
 They all look similar to the current generation, apart from the lack of something like the Diamond. There are many Blackstone replacements, and every over form factor HTC has, apart from something with a decent number of hardware buttons! -------------------- |

I have to say I'm liking the look of the Tungsten
I hope it'll be running windows mobile (preferrably v7 too) .... my upgrade isn't due until july so seen as t-mobile are still yet to release the damn vario 4 i might just wait to see if they announce that before upgrading my kaiser time to find a new housing to replace the battered one on my kaiser then - i'm sure t-mobile won't give me a very good upgrade deal 
-------------------- Aston University 2008/9 - Marketing - WOO :D
HTC Kaiser (T-Mo MDA V3 branded) - TLR 6.1 ROM, 2GB MicroSD, iGo 8 on a 515MB MicroSD, T-Mobile FlexT 25 + Web 'n' Walk Standard Acer Aspire Gemstone Blue 6920G - Intel Core 2 Duo T5750 2GHz, 3GB PC2-6400, 200GB HDD, ATi Radeon HD3650 512MB, Dolby Virtual Surround + True5.1 Output, Blu-Ray, HDMI, Fingerprint Recognition, Windows Vista Ultimate SP1, Office 2007 Pro Plus with Onenote 2007 I know what I'm doing, I'm just not doing it :) |

Will we see an upgrade to the shift? Netbooks are popular, but HTC's form factor is the dogs nuts. HTC Shift upgrade wishlist:
Intel Atom + Nvidia Ion 1 GB RAM minimum Upgradeable SSD 6 Cell Battery Optional USB powered DVD-RW People will pay for a premium netbook! HTC was a little to expensive and late to market. When the Shift eventually came out we were seeing Atom processors in Netbooks which took the fizz away from the A100 processor found in the Shift. |
