HTC has consistantly and reliably created high-quality Windows Mobile phones. Its latest creation seems to outdo so many of its devices with a sleek package, high-performance and technology, and even a low price. HTC Shadow, featuring a 2 megapixel camera, wi-fi, 2.6″ QVGA screen, all in a slim slider format with pull-out BlackBerry-style 2-keys-per-letter keyboard.

Look for this device to hit the US T-Mobile this Wednesday October 31, 2007 at just $200 with 2 year contract, or $150 with 2 year unlimited data plan.

Update:

As promised, it is now available for purchase: retail price is $349, and you can get your own Shadow in brown or green. A bit odd choice of colors for mobile phones, but it certainly beats having another black or silver phone on the market. Maybe Microsoft’s own Zune is suddenly making brown fashionable…
