the::unwired hands on with the HTC Shift
Good friend Arne Hess of the::unwired got some brief hands-on time with the most buzz generating UMPC, the HTC Shift. He’s posted some photos and impressions of using the keyboard on the Shift. He only played with it a short while so what kind of impression did it make on him?
Unfortunately I hadn’t too much time with the Shift but what I’ve seen and wasable to test impressed me as much that I’m quite sure, that the HTC Shift is mynext buy.
It seems Arne is like me and speaks with his wallet too much. :)

Ah, man. Wake me up when this thing is in my Fondle Range. All these write ups and vids from other people are becoming contradictory headaches. Even looking at that pic, that spacebar is wee!
I seriously consider Shift as a replacement for my Q1, but does it have only 800×480 screen? Since the screen res. is one of the weakest point in my Q1, I really wish it comes with a higher resolution.
