The one characteristic of the HTC Snap that sets it apart from a BlackBerry clone (aside from being Windows Mobile) is the Inner Circle, which helps you keep different types of correspondences all together under their respective contacts. The dedicated key will make Inner Circle a regular part of a Snap-user’s life, but aside from that, the user interface looks like standard fare for Windows Mobile. If it takes off, it’s entirely possible we’ll see HTC port the feature into new messaging handsets, but that will all depend on whether or not T-Mobile actually includes Inner Circle when they release the HTC Snap in the U.S. No word on a release date or price point just yet; in the meantime, you can take a closer look over here.
