rw4500 Smartphone by HP?

Unlikely it will be available

Why why why do the Japanese get all the good electronic stuff?

It CAN'T BE an Asia-only design, it has a T-Mobile logo printed on the back.

The phone is not a fake, it's a real model. I work quite a bit with hp and Microsoft doing Webinars and speaking at functions for their Healthcare division (I'm sure many of you might know my real name). I got a look at an engineering sample of this phone last month.

Now the bad news: As of the last conversation I had with the people at hp and Microsoft this phone was an Asia-only release, so don't hold your collective breath. But one never knows.

Looks like any other HTC smartphone for WMSP out there today. The only cool thing (someone won't like) is the miniSD is inside under the battery. I like that idea if only to keep it from getting lost when it pops out. I have dropped pda's in the past and had my SD card pop out and lost for a day, not a good feeling.

This phone looks nice lets hope they don't cripple any features(like wifi) once its released.

All i have to say is "Rebrand"

HTC or not HTC...that is the question.

I think the Moto Q is pretty much a slam dunk in this category.

Of course, that's just my .02.
