HTC Shift is an UMPC, that is powered by Windows Vista but apart from that it runs also cut-down version of Windows Mobile (for email reading and calendaring only).

Here some photos from the launch event:

This one held promise for me, but the low res screen renders it useless as a mini laptop. Why it was not at least 1024*600 like fuj-siemens managed to fit in their new UMPC I will never know. Additionally, vista on 800MHz is gonna be very slow.

I am currently using a Fuj-Siemens P1610. Its a little larger - about 1", and a little heavier (it weighs a kilo). But with a 1280x768 screen its a hell of a lot more usable - and there is not a huge difference in price either.

The resolution of the shift can be changed to 1024 x 600, but, that is done by interpolation and display becomes a little blurry.

Yes, fujitsu u810/u1010 is able to run natively at that resolution and that's the reason i ll be purchasing it soon
