are these phones even available? it's been announced for so long and i haven't seen any of it for real. so many feature sets but lacks the basic user input (keyboard or keypads) are missing, how are we suppose to use it for messaging?

I just can't see the point of issuing these feature packed phones to the European market with only tri-band or quad band GSM.

I want some future proofing if i'm going to pay out over £300 for a Pocket PC phone. I'm looking for HSPDA enabled phones now as 3.5g is just over the horizon in Europe.

Gigabyte have missed a great opportunity to put one over on HTC.

You lot can never be happy. A phone with wifi, bluetooth, GPS and phone capabilities (most at the latest technology) and your still not happy. This phone, as long as it is released here and soon, maybe enough to stop me from getting an iPAQ rw6828. Anyone know when it will be released?

p.s. no 3G is not the end of the world, it's crap anyway! and, getting a phone with HSPDA before it has really kicked off is just asking for trouble. Always wait a year on new technology, you may not have the latest device but it will work.

When will this phone and others by Giga-Byte be available in the U.S.?

And if they are, which carriers and under what product names?

Curious as well, how this phone compares to the HTC/Cingular 8125
vs. gSmart i300??
