HTC HAS launched in London its Q4 2007 product line-up of new mobiles. This consisted of a new extension to the touch family, the firm’s first enterprise phone, a mobile computing device and an update to an existing handset.

First out was the ever-so imaginatively named HTC P6500. This is the firm’s first ever venture into the grown-up enterprise world of mobile handsets. It’s a Windows Mobile 6 Professional driven device with open platform support for industry applications. All meaning it shouldn’t struggle with running off-the-shelf mobile business apps or bespoke, as now seen in other competitors’ products. It’s a Tri-Band HSDPA with Quad-Band GSM/EDGE support, bundled with Wifi and Bluetooth. Hitting all the possible angles for connections, operator and otherwise. They’ve even gone as far to build in GPS and include a three mega-pixel camera. The latter could provide 2D barcode scanning and business card recognition. It has 1GB internal memory and 2 SDIO slots for expansion with a nice fingerprint ID sensor for security conscious individuals. This will be wandering to the regular outlets in November; unfortunately no prices were given out.
