HTC myTouch 3G Slide is the latest addition to the T-Mobile catalog, the smartphone will become available for purchase in June 2010 and sports the Android 2.1 OS.

One of the best features of the myTouch 3G Slide is the “Genius Button” which works via voice and makes it easy to write a message, search for a contact, or make a call. In terms of technical specifications it has a 3.4-inch HVGA touchscreen an an optical trackpad, it supports microSD memory cards and is a quad-band cellphone with GSM/EDGE, UMTS/HSPA, WiFi, bluetooth, and GPS.

Whenever a device makes an appearance on the FCC, it is with anticipation that said device will soon hit the market as well, although that is not the case always. The HTC HD mini does seem set for a North America release with its 3G network support, where it will come with the Windows Mobile 6.5.3 operating system, a 3.2″ display and a 600MHz processor. The HD mini is touted to be the budget version of the HD2, but it won’t skimp on multi-touch input and comes with HTC’s own Sense UI as well.

Well, after years of waiting, Apple has finally come forth and revealed their tablet which they will officially be calling the iPad. This device will feature a 1GHz Apple developed A4 chip and a 9.7-inch capacitive touchscreen display. Hard drive space will come in 16, 32 and 64GB sizes. Other specs include a 30-pin connector, speaker, microphone, Bluetooth and WiFi. 802.11n to be exact.

Software wise it looks to be sporting a modified iPhone OS and will in fact run iPhone applications. There are two methods of running these applications, either full screen or in a window.

Text input will be handled with a onscreen software keyboard, if you couldn’t have guessed that.

Oh yeah, did I mention it gets 10 hours of battery life?

We’ll keep you posted as more information is made known.

Hot on the heels of the Palm Pixi Plus announcement, Palm has again taken center stage at CES to give us wind of the Palm Pre Plus.

There isn’t much new here, 16GB of internal storage, no more navigation button and Verizon branding. Oh, the back cover also supports TouchStone charging out of the box, if you’re into that kind of thing.

There was no mention of a price but we do know that it’s dropping on January 25th so Verizon users you will soon be able to get your hands on some webOS goodness.
