DeepfishWhilst Internet Explorer on Windows Mobile has a good stab at displaying full websites on a mobile device there is room for improvement, step up Deepfish! It offers an experience far more like that of your desktop browser and looks great to us!

Lets hope this is released to the public sooner rather than later eh? Well that's the great thing, it already has been! With one drawback, the initial allocation of downloads has been filled! If you try currently you'll receive the following message:

HTC 6800 & S720Those lucky people at Engadget have gotten their hands on two very desirable pre-release handsets from HTC's ranks, namely the HTC 6800 and S720!

The HTC 6800 is Telus-branded and offers a slide-out QWERY keyboard in a relatively thin and light shell, what's more Engadget have confirmed that the keyboard features a spring-assisted slide which screamed quality when I tried it on the HTC Herald and the parallels do not end there as it would appear that they share the rubberised coating on their keys too!

The HTC S720 is essentially an HTC Vox with EV-DO capability and a different case, we're itching to get hold of an HTC Vox/SPV E650 so the HTC S720 sounds great! Read more

HTC KaiserThe HTC Kaiser has shown its face properly for the first time on the web with actual photos of the device finding their way onto website Mobile Life. The photos themselves show off the rather impressive looking slide and flip style screen which is a first for HTC. Expect this Hermes replacement to feature a 3 mega-pixel camera, integrated GPS, GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA & HSUPA as well as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Windows Mobile 6. We like!

SPV E650Our friend Gears over at CoolSmartphone has gotten his hands on a rather nice high quality image of the soon to be released (due in April) SPV E650, also known as the HTC Vox. For those of you who don't know by now expect Smartphone form factor with a QWERTY spring-loaded keyboard to boot! I for one am very much looking forward to the E650's release so its great to see such an image hitting the web.

Qool glider This year's CeBIT has been the showcase for a pair of 'Qool' devices, one of which runs on the Windows Mobile platform and hides its Windows flag button rather well! Give it a closer look though and you'll see it staring right back at you through the glossy back casing. It is a quad-band device with sliding keypad, 195MHz OMAP850 processor, Bluetooth 1.2, Wi-Fi, EDGE, 2.8 inch touchscreen and a 2 mega-pixel camera. Solid specifications all wrapped inside a lovely looking phone that also features a set of controls that are backlit in red - very nice!
