We have already mentioned the O2 Xda handset line a few times, one when Ignito was spotted online, and the other when Denim was approved by FCC. But the good news is that the cellphone will finally become available for purchase next Monday, on November 17.
Built by Asus and promoted by O2 from the UK, the mobile phone will be offered on a Pay&Go prepaid plan and will cost £250 which is approximately $390. It makes use of Windows Mobile 6.1 as the OS, and comes with WiFi and HSDPA.
Additional features include a multimedia player, a 3-megapixel camera, and a 2.8-inch display screen.
The AT&T Fuze looks similar to the HTC Touch Pro because it's exactly the same phone. We know the carrier is coming but we have absolutely no idea about when that's going to happen.
People are talking, and what they say is the Fuze is going to be released sometime this week. It's only Monday so we'll have plenty of time to confirm it. What do you think? Would you get a Fuze?

If Luxury is your middle name then you surely own at least one Mobiado phone. The cell phone maker has more phones available. And there are four more phones available: Professional 105 EM White, Professional 105 EM Red, Professional 105 EM CLB Black and Professional 105 EM CLB Silver.
The Professional 105 EM Special edition are built from maple burl wood mixed with titanium, sapphire crystal and a pinch of 24K gold. The specs will not impress, but then again they don't have to! You're going to get Quad band GSM/EGSM and dual band WCDMA (850 / 2100) connectivity, a 2 inch display and a 2 megapixel camera which will get you video recording too. There's Bluetooth, music and micro USB support, and more than 1GB of internal memory.
The 105 EM CLB Black and Silver are similar to the 105 EM (check them out below). And yeah, I don't like the colors either. Go to Mobiado and demand availability dates and prices. But then again if Luxury is your middle name, you might have already bought all four of them and not even know it!
