Harnessing the power of Windows Vista and Microsoft Origami™ Experience 2.0, the HTC Shift blends advanced wireless connectivity with a sleek design that is half the size and a fraction of the weight of a standard notebook. Operating on the Sprint Mobile Broadband Network, the HTC Shift can leverage always-connected CDMA-EVDO connectivity and features true push email with up to three days of battery life.

This is the first device to feature HTC's innovative new SnapVUE™ technology. SnapVUE provides instant access to emails, calendar, and contacts, without the need to fully boot up the device, which helps conserve power and extend battery life. Also a great multimedia companion, the HTC Shift utilizes Windows Media Player® 11 to provide easy access to music, videos and photos. Other features include:
  • 7" touch sensitive 'slide-n-tilt' screen
  • Windows Vista™ Business edition
  • 40-gigabyte hard drive
  • Light weight of 1.8 pounds
  • 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi connectivity
  • High-speed data connectivity with CDMA-EVDO service through Sprint
  • Bluetooth® 2.0
  • Windows Media Player 11 to provide easy access to music, videos and photos.
The HTC Shift is available in the United States for the first time starting Monday March 24 online at www.htc.com and www.amazon.com for an approximate retail price of $1,499. For more information on the HTC Shift, please visit www.SwitchOffStayConnected.com.
