HSCSD No

That's odd

I thought almost every new device nowadays had HSCSD

There is no way you can compare the Shift to the Uni, this is a UMPC with communication functions running Windows Vista. It has a seven inch screen and is more comparable to a fully function laptop, with normal apps, not PPC apps.

If you have to find a comparison then I would suggest the HTC Advantage X7501 which runs WM6 and has a five inch screen. The thing I believe makes the uni unique is the solid keyboard, something neither the Shift or the Advantage posses.

it has all the functions of the athena and why use windows mobile if you can use vista. it also has video calls etc. but the sony hasn't it only functions as a umpc. the x7501 has its front camera removed so how can you make video calls. I have a htc x7500 and htc universal but i still think the shift will be the ultimate umpc/mobile just link to a virtual keyboard for a bigger keyboard. Normal apps is better imagine playing old pc games in a handheld device rather than looking for ports of the actual game. The shift's keyboard is atteched like the universal but rather than a clamshell design it slides. Has 1.2ghz and 1gig of ram i believe its has a goforce 5200 videocard and 30gig hdd and it is also expandable via micro sd the only thing it doesnt have is a gps reciever then just do the same thing use an external reciever.for security it has a fingerprint scanner even the x7500 doesnt have this.

My 18month contract ends in September, so still a few months before I can upgrade my XDA exec

Anything that size and running somekind of Vista version is a notebook in my eyes

A pocketpc/phone should run windows mobile imho

A notebook that could do phone/video calls, send SMS messages (without internet connection)... :amazed:

I'm back in the UK from July so if Mr tax man gives me a nice rebate the HTC Shift is the first thing on my shopping list. I'll be much more productive with it, as I aid before it's not comparable with a Uni and I will keep my old one but...

I WANT A HTC SHIFT :D
