Probably, thats the nature of the electronics business. Never for something better as you'll always be waiting, and don't be surprised if your kit is out of date in 6 months. Although the C500 isstill a pretty useful handset. I was sad to see mine go.

I guess the next thing would be a WiFi enabled smart phone. Something along the lines of the C600 with built in WiFi. Some American firm have developed a dual core handset with two processors. coolsmartphone.com have a link to the story here, which look spretty nifty. Basically, keep an eye out for any news items from CES, that's where most of this years new gear is going to be previewed.

There's already a version of the c600 with wifi - basically all the other variants of it (qtek, imate etc).

If I didn't have a Qtek 9100 I'd probably get the Qtek 8310 here in the UK - swish smartphone with wifi. Mmm.. As it is, I can live with a little extra bulk as I like the keyboard..

As the secret was kept well for HTC devices ,new devices will have the same "treatment" .My opinion is that HTC are working on new devices already as C600 is out from some time . ;)

Eh? There's an HTC Faraday WITH wifi on I-mate/Qtek? Not that I've come across. If you're referring to the SP5/SP5m and the Qtek equivalent, that isn't an HTC Faradey and so couldn't be called the same device as the SPV C600.

I've seen no evidence what so ever indicating wifi was ever included in the HTC Faraday which means Orange's SPV C600 was NEVER going to have wifi!

Wrong. The SP5 and SP5m are HTC Tornado devices whereas the SPV C600 is an HTC Faraday.

[Guest Emad]

Eh, candy bar phone with pretty much identical features. Call it tomato or tomatoe or tempest or squall, same difference ;)

[Guest Pondrew]

hehe ;)

I'm gonna have to start calling Squall Tempest in that case! :D
