From the comparison shots it looks like a huge device, of course with all the goodies you get this is understandable. This will be probably out by Q2 2007. Not really on my shortlist of devices at the moment as it doesn't have a hardware keyboard but it's nice to see O2 moving on after parting ways with long time supplier HTC. It would be nice to see how HTC plans to answer the Flame...

If I were HTC I'd come out with something called HTC Ice hehehe then make it have better specs like adding a QWERTY keyboard and GPS. Oh and slapping on a SDHC slot for even higher memory expansion. That would surely piss-off O2 hahahaha!

Coron Labor Day Weekend Getaway

The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we would’ve liked but I think we made the most of it :D [waiting for our flight to Busuanga] We went to the saltwater hot spring, island hoping, and had a whole lot of fun at Loralee’s luau. [The water is FIIIIINE!!!] [dinner at Bistro Coron] [Happy Birthday Loralee :D] Coron is one heck of a lovely place… just remember to bring mosquito repellent. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bnycastro/tags/coron_0509
