HTC Shift Prototype Impressions

083107_1501_SneakPeakat1.jpg

Here's a sneak peek at the HTC Shift, from the eye of Kaz, a former editor of PC World in Denmark:

The current model only got a "limited" Windows Mobile 6 built in. No Mobile Office in it. Bit of a shame. But it does support e-mail. I don't know if you can install custom applications like Skype on it. But it is connected to the "pc" part so it will act as a modem in Vista for your Mobile Data Connection. But it does have parts of the HCT Touch (the phone) front screen interface with calendar, clock and weather + direct access to mail. It did not seem to enable the Vista Windows Mobile Sync interface to sync the Windows Mobile part. But one can hope that changes for the final version – so you don't have to double sync your outlook to get calendar and mail in to the Windows Mobile part.

I have to admit that I'm a little envious that he got to play with a prototype. I'm seriously considering getting a portable device that will allow me to write. Head over here for the full details.
