As expected, the 3G-enabled Treo 750v (click here for specs) has made its way over to the Asia-Pacific, with Singapore being the first country to kick things off. The device is available through Vodafone’s partner, M1, at $1,268 SGD (or $798 USD). Not in Singapore? Don’t sweat. There’s a good chance that neighbouring countries will catch this device in the coming months, so sit tight.

We recently reviewed the Qtek 8500, and just to add a little more context, I’ll be checking in over the next ten days with the Cingular version - the 3125. Today is day one…

“At an HP event in New York City this evening the HP iPaq rx5915 was on display for the first time in the U.S. and the device has also shown up on the HP website with a price of $599.99. The iPaq rx5915 isn’t being dubbed as a PDA, but rather a Travel Companion as it has a built-inSiRFstar III GSC3F GPS chip. Indeed, at the HP event dubbed “Your Life is the Show” HP had the iPaq rx5915 setup on a mocked up car dashboard to show how it would work as a guidance system while driving.”

We reported on HP’s new family of cool devices a few weeks ago (here, here and here), and it’s beginning to look better and better. The US version of the iPaq rx5915 will come bundled with a huge 1700maH battery and Tom Tom 6 navigation software, and a car cradle/mount and charger will be included in the box. It looks like a very capable device, especially if you can get the version with 2GB ROM storage. I like the fact that it has an SD slot, mini-USB connector (a departure for HP), and standard 3.5mm headphone socket. Any takers?

“High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC), the world’s leading provider of Windows Mobile® portable devices, announced today that it has started supplying HSDPA Smartphones to SoftBank in Japan. The Smartphone, which has been named the “SoftBank X01HT,” features HSDPA technology that will deliver a faster mobile broadband experience to Japanese customers (data transfer rates of up to 1.8 Mbps on downlink and 384 Kbps on uplink).”

After the linkup with Vodafone, HTC have scored another avenue for penetrating Japan’s market - this time with Softbank. The X01HT is another HTC Hermes in disguise though obviously carrying the Japanese language OS - HTC might be going for a world record here (”How many names can we give to one device?”). Let’s see: we have the X01HT, TyTN, Dopod 838 Pro and CHT9000, XDA Trion, Qtek 9600, VPA Compact III, SPV M3100, MDA VARIO II, i-mate JASJAM and let’s not forget the rumoured Cingular version and HTC Japan’s own hTc Z (someone please explain that bit of marketing strategy to me). Still, as the bard said: “What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet” If you can’t get enough of the Hermes, you can download and drool over a couple of hi-res photos of the X01HT here.
