After the long and arduous wait for the most hardcore Shadow fans, your day has come. Just like we promised, it is now available for your calling and messaging pleasure. This new iteration of the popular HTC device sports a faster processor and also supports T-Mobile HotSpot@Home, which makes it the first Windows Mobile phone to have that feature, and also means it has Wi-Fi (great news since it’s lacking in the HSDPA department). For $149.99 with a two-year contract and qualifying data plan, this is a pretty good deal if you’re up for renewal or looking for a mid-level smartphone. If black and burgundy isn’t your thing, the phone also comes in white mint. Hit the jump for more info and details on the newly available Nokia 7510.

Next up in T-Mobile’s new line of phones is the Nokia 7510 Supernova. It’s a nice entry-level phone if you don’t need constant email access, web browsing and a million songs to cram into your phone. Here are the specs for the device:

• Weight: 124 g
• Dimensions: 92 x 46 x 17 mm
• Display: Main QVGA 16 million color display/External monochrome 128×160 display (hidden when not in use)
• Network: Quad-band GSM / EDGE
• Memory: 27MB onboard memory; microSD support
• Operating System: Symbian S40 (with active themes)
• Camera: 2-mega pixel (no autofocus) camera with LED flash and 4x digital zoom; QCIF video recording at 15 FPS
• Talktime: – 3 day standby and 300 hours of talktime
• Internet: OSS internet browser
• Connectivity: Bluetooth 2.0
• FM radio with RDS
• 2.5 mm jack
• Xpress on covers

Pretty basic, but at least the low-end market has some options, right? The phone also has changeable faceplates which come in espresso brown, fatal red and emerald green. Those colors sound pretty intense and will keep things fresh if you’re in the mood for something different every day. The 7510 also has Wi-Fi and supports T-Mobile HotSpot@Home calling, which is good for those of you who rack up minutes like crazy every month. It’s nice to see T-Mobile integrating this into their high and low-end phones. The Nokia 7510 will set you back a mere $49.99 with a two-year contract.

Details are a tad shaky right now as the original leak source for these two upcoming handsets has removed all info from the site, but it looks like Nokia will be taking aim at the fairer sex once again with two sexy S40 handsets. What’s the source you might ask? Nokia’s Polish site. Oops! It seems Nokia’s Polish webmaster has a bit of an itchy trigger finger and the info on two new handsets was up just long enough to get snagged. The two handsets, Nokia 7510 Supernova and Nokia 7xxx Supernova (the second handset is being reported as 7610 but this is unlikely as Nokia has already has a discontinued handset bearing those numbers) look to be focusing on style with functionality that won’t interest the Nseries crowd, but really isn’t too shabby. Along the same vein as Nokia’s L’Amour series, these handsets will get the job done and bring out the hazel in your eyes at the same time. Specs as follows:

Eager to get your hands on the newly revamped HTC Advantage 7510? You’re going to have to resort to the gray market, at least for the time being. HTC has decided not to distribute the new “handset” in America. So sad. Truth be told, we’re not entirely sold on the redesign, with an altered keyboard design that appears to leave a little to be desired in the ergonomics department. The reason for the ban is that the handset runs off of the Qualcomm chipset that has been banned in the US pending litigation. As there hasn’t been much progress on the chipset ban, we won’t hold our breath for an impending 7510 release stateside.
