New Cell Phones

- Cell Phones Reviews, News, Specs and Info

The Rogers HTC Shift X9501 is now on sale. The Rogers HTC Shift X9501 is a brand new UMPC, running the full Windows Vista Business Edition OS. In other words, is basically an Internet-ready small laptop. While it won’t come cheap, CAD $1600 on 3 year contract, it’s definitely got some features to back up the big price tag.

The Rogers HTC Shift X9501 features will include: “SnapVUE technology, which allows the user to load a basic operating system, to check emails, messages, and contacts without the need to boot the heavier Windows system, thus helping to improve the battery life. Shift features a 7” touch sensitive screen, 40 GB of storage, a full QWERTY keyboard and a touch pad. As it has a quad-band GSM and tri-band HSDPA receiver, it can work worldwide.” Unfortunately, the Rogers HTC Shift X9501 won’t replace your cell phone, and I’m sure you wouldn’t want to hold it up to your ear for long periods of time anyway.

Looks like Rogers will finally get the Apple iPhone. There’s been rumors that Rogers would get the Apple iPhone for quite some time, so it’s nice to see a little confirmation. And, I’m sure a lot of Canadians are also pretty giddy right now.

Rogers’ CEO said that they were getting the Apple iPhone “later this year”, but would not comment on exactly when that might be.

The Rogers Apple iPhone specs will include: a large touchscreen interface (of course!), Safari full HTML web browser, a mail client, and widgets such as weather, Google Maps, and YouTube. Key hardware features include a large, high-resolution display, quad-band EDGE, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and up to 4-16 GB of internal memory. So, hang on – you’ll get your Rogers Apple iPhone soon enough.
