HTC Loses Title as #1 Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Smartphone Maker, Now #3

DigiTimes, which cites internal Microsoft data, claims that HTC has declined from the previous #1 Windows Mobile non-touchscreen smartphone maker spot with over 50% of the market (from July '06 to June '07) to just under 30% of the market. Stepping up to take over HTC's spot are Motorola and Samsung, whose respective Q and BlackJack models are apparently more popular than previously thought. The same report says that HTC is still #1 in terms of the smartphones with touchscreens, with about a 50% share. Honestly, the touchscreen models are where HTC's focusing most of their efforts anyway, so this isn't that huge of a deal. [Digitimes]

HTC Touch vs iPhone: 25 Minute Head to Head Video

If you have been on the fence about picking up an HTC Touch or an iPhone, you owe it to yourself to check out this 25 minute comparison from the guys at WM Experts. If your attention span is limited to 15 minutes and under, I can tell you that the verdict was mixed...sort of. In the end the battle was really between Windows Mobile and the iPhone. Not surprisingly, the reviewer felt that WM was a better choice for him personally because of its productivity features (WM Experts, go figure). More »

HTC Nike Touchscreen Slider

This HTC Nike (P5500) Windows Mobile 6 smartphone found in HTC's roadmap looks almost exactly like the HTC Touch we reviewed before, except it has a slide-out numpad. Our thoughts? Genius. One of the big complaints about the Touch was the fact that you could only use the onscreen keyboard to dial. And as you know, the Windows Mobile on-screen keyboard isn't so great. More »

Sharp Mysterious Touch Smartphone Looks Like an iPhone

Steve Ballmer said he wasn't worried about the iPhone and maybe the reason is this mysterious iPhone knockoff Sharp smartphone. It will be released in Japan on Willcom's PHS network, just like the Zero 3, and it will have a fantabulous 3-inch widescreen with a whooping 800 x 480 pixel resolution. Weighing 5.53 ounces, the 0.7-inch thick WM6 phone will run on a 520Mhz CPU but will only have 256MB of flash RAM storage. – Jesus Diaz More »

When's the last time you saw anyone make the slightest bit of innovation on the input scheme for Windows Mobile? Never? We thought so. But that's just what HTC's done with their TouchFLO app on the new Touch smartphone. TouchFLO actually lets you use the pads of your fingers—not just the tip like a stylus—to control things on the phone. More »

Windows Mobile Editions Get Less Confusing Names: Professional, Standard and Classic

Trying to explain the difference between Windows Mobile 5 Pocket PC Edition and Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone edition is like Paris Hilton trying to explain what she does for a living. Good news though, as Microsoft's trying to make it easier on everyone by renaming their WM6 Crossbow editions to Professional, Standard, and Classic. More »
