Clearly we were wrong claiming, that O2 Xda Atom is made by Quanta. In fact it is made by HTC and its code name is : HTC Athena !
Here is HTC roadmap for O2 Asia for year 2006:

Everybody hopes it is SD not mini-SD but nobody knows for sure yet. All I can say: the reason why HTC Wizard has mini-SD is the slide out keyboard and since Atom (i.e. HTC Athena) has no such keyboard, it should have SD card slot.... |

I'm considering the HTC Hermes since I ordered the HTC Wizard, but the idea of videoconferencing is so appealing that I would've picked up the Universal, had it not been for lack of US-UMTS, 850Mz, and EDGE support. I guess I won't feel so bad if the Hermes follows the same features of the Universal, but if it has at least EDGE and 850MHz with those specs, I'll be upgrading once again!

| What does the keyboard have anything to do with the use of SD or Mini-SD slots? |

Perhaps you should learn from this "Mistake" and try to get it right first time..  |

it takes a lot of place: keyboard itself + mechanism for sliding out. And less place available means: mini-SD. |

Space... a lot of SPACE. Not place |

The i730 is a similar size with a sliding keyboard mechanism yet somehow manages to have a full SD card slot. There's probably some other reason for the mini-SD decision by HTC, but certainly not an obvious technical one. |

That looks like HTC is not on the way of building what I want:
- PocketPC Phone with at least 3.5 inch VGA screen
- no shell model - no keyboard
- no camera
- SD slot
- WiFi and Bluetooth
- GPS
