Unboxing: HTC Cavalier

I have been looking forward to this ritual for a while now, and finally a little while ago it happened. The HTC Cavalier (S630) in the flesh unboxed. As many of you know it’s a needed upgrade to the ever popular HTC Excalibur (and all incarnations). The processor has been upgraded to a Samsung 400Mhz, flash memory of 128MB, a 2-mega pixel camera, and a slightly updated form factor. The 3G is tri-band, 850/1900/2100 and I have been zipping along Cingular’s network without a hitch so far. HSDPA baby! Signal reception is as good or better than the Excalibur and the JOGGR touch-wheel has been moved to the direct side instead of by the screen. And now for some bad news, HTC sent out a memo to all distributors saying this device has been “postponed indefinitely”. Who knows. Follow the HTC trail for more pics!

not bad I say, not bad!

this is really cool, the default homepage in Internet Explorer is this picture above, it integrates Microsoft Live search and it grabs the content from your Favorites and your History, click on one of the icons to see how it works

Favorites expands and shows your favorites

and History shows your history, genius!

yeah thats right 400mhz, i’m ready for some serious skypeage!
