Looking for a downgrade? This time, there is no big innovation from HTC in Mega but interestingly it will be one of the first PocketPC devices to be powered by the Windows Mobile 6.5. Read on for detailed specs and info.

It is very disappointing to note that the HTC mega will have the old school qVGA resolution of just 240x320 mega pixels in a 2.8 inch sized screen. At this age of WVGA and HD resolutions, seriously, what's wrong with HTC now?

HTC Mega will have a 528 Mhz processor under the hood to power the Windows Mobile 6.5 OS and that is pretty standard now along with 256 Mb RAM.  And we suppose the camera will be of 3 mega pixels.

Another rumor has it, the HTC Sense UI as seen in their recent Android powered handset HTC Hero will also be included in this phone. Although not exactly the same, a very similar Touch FLO 3D we suppose will be included.

So, if you own any of the high end PocketPC phones like the Touch HD, Touch Diamond 2 or the Touch Pro 2 and looking for a downgrade, you may probably check out the HTC Mega when it is released in a while.
