UTStarcom's CES 2008 booth tour

In terms of layout, UTStarcom's booth is close to a dead ringer for its showing at last year's CES; just the promos and handsets have changed, basically. The darlings of the show have to be the HSM180, an absolutely bizarre HSDPA candybar featuring two circles for a keypad, and the TXT8010, a QWERTY slider with an attitude for CDMA networks. Check 'em out, yo.

I got an xv6800 for christmas - well I got a voyager, but convinced my dad to let me switch (I've got unlim. inter net for a month 2 if I pay...)

It's not a bad phone once I get some add on apps. (PocketCM, Total Commander, themes) I love having word and the keyboard while not as get as the voyager (oh well-there is no perfect phone) it's bad.
I'm a Mac head and syncing with WinMo isn't bad except WinMo corrupted my documents (pdfs, .doc)

I just wish it had more RAM and Verizon needs to install more themes. At least 1 basic black and 1 basic blue please!

But who makes the phone HTC or UTSTarcom? it's difficult to find on HTC's site (buried in support) but components say HTC and it's on UTStar's site in their booth. But nothing mentions them.

that three circle phone is UUUUUUUUUGLY! I mean, that phone fell from the "we make crappy phones for fun" tree.

disgusting.
