 With
today's announcement of
HTC's Touch Pro,
we've also got the word that
O2 Germany will
launch its version of the
HTC Raphael
under the Xda brand
(the name isn't unveiled yet) later this summer as well. So far it's somewhat
confirmed that "O2's Raphael" will also feature Windows Mobile 6.1, triband
GSM/GPRS/EDGE (900/1800/1900 MHz) as well as UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (900/2100 MHz) up
to 7.2 Mbps, Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi b/g as well as GPS. Furthermore we heard that
O2's Xda will also include the from the
HTC Touch
Diamond/Xda
diamond known FM radio and and motion-sensor. As with the Xda diamond, O2
Germany will again use its flat soft-touch battery cover instead HTC's diamond
shaped battery cover:
 
Powered by a Qualcomm MSM 7201A CPU at 528 MHz, O2 Germany's Raphael is said
to include 512 MB ROM and 288 MB RAM which is expansible via microSD cards. On
the back it also sports the 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera and on the front, the
VGA camera for video telephony. The VGA TFT LCD touchscreen measures 2.8" and
will feature TouchFlo 3D.
According to information, O2 Germany will add TomTom 7 again (which includes one
free city map download) and it's said, that O2's Raphael is - as always - SIM/Net
unlocked.
A release date or price wasn't given today but it's expected that O2 Germany
will launch it later this summer as well.
