HTC Announces P3470, GPS + EDGE

MWC 2008 is still swinging, the latest to come out is the HTC P3470. It's a lowish-end Windows Mobile 6 Pro device: Think HTC Touch minus TouchFLO and WiFi, but you can add in GPS. The P3470 comes pre-equipped with TomTom for navigation and has the HTC Home Screen we've all come to know and love. It's “lowish-end” because it's EDGE only, folks, no 3G or WiFi. One nice bit, it looks like that 5-way pad might double as a scroll wheel.

That said, it's awfully tiny (see the specs below) and clocks in at 449 Euro before subsidies. Note the “Euro” in that price, there, looks like this thing will be launching on Orange first. We might see it here in the states someday, though, as it is Quad-Band.
