HTC Leo = HTC Thoth = HTC Athena 2, Got It?

The specs look good, but the tiny battery looks like it will prevent it from being usable as a primary phone. The screen size also seems a bit big for a phone (I know, more of a mobile internet device). Still, they are getting closer to having everything that I'd like to see in a smartphone.

ERm this was speculated last week here : http://www.mobiletechworld.com/2009/07/21/htc-leofirestone-to-have-capac...

From what I've learned, HTC had an Athena 2 in the works until mid-2008 (the January 2009 roadmap was outdated, you know). But it's been cancelled along the way.

To prove my theory, grap this piece of information: Profile of Athena 2 (Thoth)

But don't tell anyone, eh?

The question for me is "can if be used like a phone?" The dealbreaker with the Athena was that I couldn't put it to my face and make a call. If they fixed that problem, Toshiba tg01 be damned.

Clamshell with 8mp camera and Snapdragon? oooo...can't wait to hear more about this one!

Please give us a CDMA version for Sprint -- I don't want to be stuck with another crappy Qualcomm like the TP2.

This will be the Only phone that I will buy. After years with HTC Athena, I can't possibly revert back to any sub-4-inch screen machine, just impossible to live with even a 4inch screen Toshiba T01 after years of 5-incher indulgence. Big screen is poisonous in this sense. But really hope that I can speak into the machine this time with the new design, instead of fully relying on a bluetooth headset to make calls. R u listening HTC??!! I want to speak into it!!
