I think it's time for a little criticism. HTC instead of boasting of with their Shift UMPC which they're doing since GITEX 2007, now wants to show-off with an upgraded HTC Advantage even after SE introducing XPERIA. First to begin with, they introduced the device in the name HTC Athena and then made it the Advantage or X7501 The device was looking like a huge diary and not very handy to be caried around. Now they add TouchFlo to it, imagine holding the device with one hand and swiping across the screen with the other. Ridiculous ain't it? You gotta read more for pics and details..

A small software update, little improvements on look-wise with an elegant black finish and a re-designed keyboard is all about it. Oh, the memory is also expanded from 8 to 16 GB. Ah forget that, 16 GB SDHC cards are now available :) Anyway, still no jog dial and still weighs 290gms + 85gms keyboard. A standard pocket pc weighs just about 190 gms. So this device is almost 3 times heavier! Still want it?
