It has taken 2 years, but the first real Windows Mobile phone with the potential to take on the iPhone is coming soon. The HTC Touch HD is a very well specced device with a 5 megapixel camera, Wi-Fi, GPS, a 528MHz processor and a 480×800 “HD” screen. The specifications are fairly similar to the SonyEricsson Xperia X1, which is still not shipping.

The only thing missing in this device is quad-band 3G support. As usual, HTC will be making several versions of this device, and none will provide true worldwide support for the various 3G networks.

It should be out in a month for around $600 (unconnected price).
