This is an excellent idea to put integrate the PPC (pocket PC) and standard PC features together. I have seen that couple of post above mention about a mobile phone feature. I might dissapoint you but the reality is this device is capable of using the data connection made available by GPRS on the SIM card. Voice capability is not used and hence you can use this device as a PPC w/o voice feature. All in all a great device. They came close to provide a all in one device, but for some reason are step behind on providing the voice feature. However one should see that having such a huge device (comparing to a mobile phone) with voice facility will be a bit impratical and will force customers to get used to the concept. I like the idealogy and looking forward to have one.

I am a phone seller, my name is Waymond. I has been informed that the price of this HTC shift is 1000Euro dollar or 1456 US dollar. Any one interested pls send an email to waymondtam@yahoo.com. HTC Shift = 1456 USD HTC Tytn II = 750 USD HTC Touch = 420 USD HTC P3300 = 500 USD Nokia N95 8GB = 750 USD All the prices are shipment fees inclusive. I will ship it all over the world as long as you make the payment and give me the shipping address. Please note this is an ultimate machine, and even if you put Windows Vista on a normal laptop or desktop it will runs very slow. But in this HTC Shift it runs smoothly it is really out of my expectation also. And Please don't use it like a hand phone it is actually a mini laptop. And it comes with 2 processor and 2 OS and can operates at the same time.

I've read two report on this device. One stating that it has not call capability (even though it coomes with a hand free mic and ear plug), and the other implying that it can be used to make and receive calls. I don't know which to beleive. Does anyone know which is the truth? I'm not refering to VOIP calls.

Utterly fabulous device... It sounds like it has all the "Bells and Whistles" but, can it make phone calls as well? That is a VERY important feature in any device.

I think that this phone is a very good computer and phone put together. My only concern is its price. I think that the price stated for this gadget is way beyond what it is capable of.
