With a faster processor and 3G this time around. Size-wise, compatible with the iPhone and HTC TyTN II so not sure how well the new HTC Touch Slide is gonna fare. Still think that if the screen could be expanded to 2.8″, it would be more attractive. Another major bumming factor is that there is NO WiFi on this phone. (HTC, what are you thinking?)
