HTC Athena (X7500) Specs Confirmed and General Target Date
Posted by Paul Martin in "NEWS" @ 08:15 PM
"Athena will have the following features: a Marvel 624MHz processor; Microsoft Windows Mobile Pocket PC operating system; a 5-inch VGA screen; a separate QWERTY keyboard which can combine with the screen to become a mini notebook PC; a built-in 3-megapixel phone camera with an 8GB hard disk drive; support for Wi-Fi, 3G, HSDPA (high-speed downlink packet access), Bluetooth and GPS (global positioning system), the sources pointed out."
The article also quotes industry sources as saying the soonest HTC would be offering the Athena is the first half of 2007. Since we're days away from that, it could be any day, but more probably on the far side of that estimate. It also appears HTC is aggressively pursuing the Ultra-mobile PC segment. As the specs began to solidify, the question remains: how much is it going to cost? At what price point would this be a reasonable tool for you, either for your company or personal purchase?
