"The PPCW.Net i-Mate Smartphone is above all a great mobile phone based on Microsoft's Windows Powered Smartphone operating system and HTC's Tanager hardware design. You can expect to find all the basic and advanced phone functions on this Smartphone, but what makes it the smartest phone available on the market today is the Windows Powered software that lets you E-Mail, Instant Message, surf the Web, listen to music, play games, and much, much more. The PPCW.Net i-Mate is like no other GSM Smartphone available today."

This is great news! :mrgreen: The Tanager is a killer Smartphone - it's an improved version of the SPV some of us know about or have. The Tanager has a back-lit transflective screen which is light years better than the SPV screen, and the d-pad is greatly improved as well. It also looks cooler. 8) Arne Hess at PPCW.Net has managed to get these phones to sell directly from HTC, so they're usable on almost any GSM network in the world (I'd say "any network", but you never know...). Those of you waiting for a Smartphone, wait no longer: you can pre-order one today for $549 US, and as soon as Arne gets them, they'll start shipping.
