HTC Opal leaked, shows downgraded Touch Diamond features

Some companies tend to ride the wave of their most successful products by upgrading its features and introducing a brand new device. HTC, however, is looking in the other direction.

A device called the HTC Opal has been leaked onto the Internet recently, and its spec sheet gives it almost exactly the same features as the HTC Touch, with a few exceptions.

The HTC Opal’s unconfirmed specs are the following:

• Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro
• 200 Mhz TI OMAP 850 processor
• Quadband GPRS/EDGE
• Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0
• 2 megapixel camera
• microSD card slot

About the only diffence it has from the HTC Touch is in its camera and lack of 3G network support, but then again, the features we have now have not been confirmed by HTC yet.

We’re not sure when exactly HTC plans to come clean about the HTC Opal, but since the documents with which it got leaked are dated July 3rd, it could be any time now.

steve jobs shows off mini iphone and ipod

With all the buzz surrounding the impending Apple WWDC show, it was only a matter of time before pictures of Steve Jobs and some new i-Things would leak to the ‘net. So I’m happy to bring you this exclusive first look at Apple’s latest breakthrough in miniaturization. Without further ado, I give you Paper Steve Jobs.

While it’s not the new iPhone 2 that everyone’s clamoring for, the tiny papercraft Steve Jobs sure looks cute hanging onto his flattened 2D iPhone Mini and iPod Pico.

The pulpy little version of Jobs was created by Joe Chiang as part of his wonderful papercraft Toy-a-Day series, which promises a whimsical new paper cut-out figure every day for a full year.

The collection already already includes great boxy versions of Mario, Cat in the Hat, Spiderman, R2-D2 and Optimus Prime among others.

While you can grab PDFs of Joe’s creations on the Toy-a-Day site, be sure to head over to the Papertoys Etsy shop to show you care.

Oh, and one more thing… it really is true what they say - paper dolls and people, they’re a similar shape.
