According to Akihabara, Toshiba’s iPhone-fightin’ Portégé G810 will be released on June 20th. In terms of specs, the all-touchscreen device is pretty much identical to the HTC Diamond, but fails to deliver the VGA resolution on its 2.8-inch display — it uses QVGA (240×320 pixels), instead. There’s also WiFi, GPS (and A-GPS support), Bluetooth, FM radio, HSDPA/HSUPA, and a microSD memory expansion slot. Windows Mobile 6.1 with some custom UI on top of it is running the show.
I’m not too excited about the Portégé G810. Devices like the Sony Ericsson XPERIA, HTC Diamond/Touch Pro, Samsung i900 Omnia, some Gigabyte nad E-ten’s models have raised the bar in the Windows Mobile world. QVGA is not enough, any more.

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.
