The XDA Flame is set to be the next VGA Windows Mobile PocketPC to be released.
This is a fairly large device which looks similar in size to the HTC Universal, but you may also notice the lack of slide-out keyboard.
The TV out connector sounds interesting, I’d like to see PockekPC screen out put to TV, this could make an interesting device for Powerpoint presentations.
The Flame is a 3G PocketPC Phone with a generous 3.6″ VGA display powered by NVIDIA’s GoForce 5500 GPU for next-generation mobile graphics. I cant wait to see software that can puch this 3D graphics!
O2 XDA Flame Specification
The XDA Flame is said to be shipping in Q1 2007.

Brody over at MSMobileNews has just completed his review of the HTC P4350 (aka HTC Herald).
Brody has done a sterling job with the review and there are a lot of great photos to help illustrate his points. This is how he sums it up:
“So would I spend my hard-earned cash on a HTC P4350? Well at £379.95 inc VAT its no doubt going to be in need of a subsidised contract however it’s a really great device and one that I’m confident will find its way into many people’s pockets in the near future.”
Check out the full review over at MSMobileNews.
