Probably you will not be so thrilled with the HTC Pure, it is not an ugly handset, it is just ordinary. The device has a brushed-metal finish and feels a bit slick and plascticky. The design of the smartphone is clean as well as simple. You will not have problems in case you want to put it in your pocket.
The HTC Pure comes with a WVGA resistive touch screen that provides the resolution of 400×800 pixels, it integrates an accelerometer, which changes the screen orientation from landscape to portrait in case you rotate the handset.
There is an onscreen QWERTY keyboard as well as a landscape keyboard. Both of them are easy in usage. The buttons come with haptic feedback when you use them. But it does not mean that it is an e-mail machine. It is good for quick e-mail replies and checking messages.
It features a volume rocker, a Mini-USB port/power connector/headset jack. The handset lacks a 3.5 millimeter headphone jack, but it has a USB cable, a 3.5 millimeter audio adapter and an AC adapter.
The Pure uses the TouchFlo 3D interface and runs the Windows Mobile 6.5 operating system that offers three major additions including Microsoft’s MyPhone backup service, Internet Explorer Mobile Web browser and Windows Marketplace for Mobile.
One can notice Bluetooth 2.0 that is used for mono and stereo Bluetooth headsets, file transfer, hands-free kits, personal area networking, and many others. It is considered to be a 3G smartphone, but in case you are out of the coverage zone, you can use integrated Wi-Fi.
The Pure is available with a 5-megapixle camera that provides a big number of options as well as settings. You can also notice a camcorder mode.
The smartphone is powered with a 528MHz MSM7201A processor that performs well and is able to accomplish multiple tasks. Unfortunately, the life battery offers only 3 hours 40 minutes of talk time.

Before buying this phone, people should read up about how Microsoft’s Windows Mobile operating system will soon be replaced, and the new ’7 Series’ to come at the end of the year will require different applications. So, to sum up, the new system makes all today’s Windows Phone obsolete.
I gotten one of these back a month or 2 ago from AT.T just for like $50, throw custom ROM from (HTC HD2/ Sense) and I am well satisfied with what my $50 can do, certainly until next generation HTC’s Windows Phone 7 comes out
Dear All,
Nice blog and I appreciate your constant update on the telecom trends.
My name is Adam Smith and I represent PBX Plus (http://www.pbxplus.com) which is based on the award winning (Best of Show for SMB at IT Expo, LA 2009) platform –
InVox (http://www.invox.com).
We would like to see you signup and review PBX Plus. I would be happy to add a FREE US or UK number with unlimited minutes to your account.
Your number would greet your callers with “Thanks for calling… Please say the name of the person or department you are trying to reach.” Caller can just say your name “…“and call will be forwarded to your mobile, landline or Skype account.
The drag and drop designer (visio-like) can be used to configure PBX in just 15 mins. Wizard configures the PBX based on the answers to each question about your business.
In fact, show attendees at IT Expo walked out “This is the best I have seen till day for telephony era!”
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks.
Adam Smith
