Take a break from the Xperia and Touch HD grabbing all the headlines an have a look at a review of another impressive device. E-ten have produced a rather attractive Windows Mobile with integrated digital TV. As usual the presentation of the device is pretty good. Video is after the break.
Slashgear have got their hands on the HTC Touch HD and posted a great video review which we have below, also they have done a questions and answers section too where they have confirmed that this phone will not have TV Out. Unfortunately it does not have the chipset required for TV Out so bad news on that one. You can see the video after the break with some of he more interesting questions.
The guys over at areamobile have put together another video this time giving us a comparison of the Touch HD and the Xperia X1. It’s in German buts its another good opportunity to look at these two high end devices side by side. I don’t see these as competing devices as you either want a device with a slide out keyboard or you don’t, so there is definitely room for both. Check out the video after the break and thanks Big Mo for the info.
Another video of the Touch HD this time showing how easy it is to customise the tabs on the bottom of the screen in TouchFlo 3d. We should have ours next week so expect a massive review with videos and high res pictures aplenty. Personally really looking forward to getting my hands on this device. Video after the break.

The Unwired is reporting that during Motorola’s Thursday earnings call, Sanjay Jha, co-Chief Executive of Motorola and Chief Executive of mobile devices, said “Windows Mobile 6 has not delivered the experience that I think Apple has been able to deliver, but as you look at the plan that is Windows Mobile 7 and even 6.5, I think there are significant new added features which will help the platform”. According to Jha, Motorola will open a new office in Seattle “in order to work closely with Microsoft to deliver differentiation” via the Windows Mobile platform and a first Windows Mobile 6.5-based smartphone is expected in the second half of 2009. First we have heard of Windows Mobile 6.5 so hopefully we can get some more details soon.

The guy’s at Techradar got out of bed early this morning and headed down to the T-Mobile flagship store on Oxford Street in London to see what was going on, it seemed the queue make-up was very different to the one outside the O2 shop for the release of the iPhone 3G, not least because the queue only comprised of around 25 people compared to the hundreds that flocked to get their hands on Apple’s latest offering. Overall, the launch was much as expected. Getting people through the doors was a little slower than some hoped, as processing transactions took around 30 mins in most cases.

Just received an email from Clove with some great news, “we can today confirm that as of next Tuesday, the 4th of November, we will have limited stock arriving. This exceptional unit has received phenomenal levels of interest and is the ultimate Windows Mobile device. If you want to get your hands on it as soon as possible you can order it right now here. I have ordered mine and hoping to get it on the 5th November, should help the day to go off with a bang!!
As a regular user of Log Me In for my home PC’s this announcement caught my eye. Get fast, simple access to your remote Internet-connected LogMeIn computers whenever you want, wherever you are and soon with your iPhone or iPod Touch. If you haven’t used this before you install a small application on your client PC and then you can access it and take full control from a remote source through the Log Me In web interface, it works really well and has saved me lots of times before. You can register now for the beta right here.
As though we didn’t know this already, but HTC have via twitter announced that the Touch HD is confirmed as November for European and Asian markets. In a separate update they also announced that they will be having an informal meet up in Seattle on the 14th November without any more details than that.
