Apparently, the first Hummer phone HT1 was a success (more than 50,000 phones were sold) and ModeLabs is now launching the second one. Unlike the original device which had the slider form factor, the HT2 is a candybar-shaped device, thus it targets those that like the Hummer brand but dislike sliders.
While reflecting the spirit of the brand, the new mobile is fully multimedia and can be used in any situation. The HT2 has up to 500 hours of autonomy in stand-by mode, is quad-band (enabling network access in more than 200 countries) and features Dual-SIM (two lines in a single mobile), a built-in modem, e-mail and a webcam.
As for the availability, Russians can already buy the HT2 while those living in Latin America will have to wait for the end of the second quarter. Other markets will follow soon after, I guess.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
