4th and final post about the HTC Athena today, I promise! :D The Dopod U1000 is sure to make the iPod generation sit up and take notice with it's white paint job (yeh, it looks silver but apparently it's white! :) ). Something's missing though. Oh, that's right, the MoDaCo logo on the back :D

Again, I won't bore you with the specs but just incase they aren't burnt into your memory, you can get the full rundown HERE.

Dopod listed configuration is expected in February 2007, the proposed price of 39,900 yuan.

BTW: 40,000 yuan is around £2500! :D[/teaser]

Think you may find that the 39,900 is actually Taiwanese dollars.

So the price should be around US$1,200, GBP615 and EUR930.

THAT sounds more reasonable :)

too big...it has lost the name "pocket" pc.

soon its gonna have its own catigory of really large devices.

rather than increasing in size they should increase in features and operating systems. cant u just see urself using a pocket pc with WinXP or Vista on it? i sure can. i wonder how long thatl be till that happens.

There is a category for such devices, Ultra Mobile PC's, such as the OQO Model 02 (£700-£900).

Using sizeasy its not that much different in proportions, http://www.sizeasy.com/page/comp/291, or cost. The athena however, is not a UMPC, it runs WM PPC Phone Edition, and is therefore a pocket pc (or even a "smartphone").
