  • HTC Cavalier being sold as the HTC S630

    HTC’s internal handset codenames are so widely used and referenced that they might as well be the actual handset model name. The HTC Cavalier has been referred to time and time again as the successor to the HTC Excalibur (the T-mobile Dash). So much so that it’s almost unnecessary to rename the unit for retail channels. Alas, HTC loves to rename their handsets with cryptic numeric codes, and the Cavlier is no exception. HTC’s Cavalier will hence forth be known as the HTC S630. (Yea, we know it’s already been renamed as the Dopod C730, but that’s an ODM rebranding - the HTC S630 will be marketed under the HTC brand) The 3G (HSDPA) and 400Mhz CPU packin’ Windows Mobile 6.0 Standard device hauls proverbial ass compared to the Excalibur. The quad-band (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) radio and WiFi connectivity help make this WM6 Standard device one of the slickest in the US market. And, Smartphone Thoughts has the goods to prove it. For about $565 USD, you too can experience the blazing speed of the HTC S630! Head on over and check out the unboxing of the HTC S630. Or, you know, just peep the vid below.

  • FCC reveals HTC Cavalier - 3G successor to the HTC Excalibur

    How many of you T-mobile Dash (HTC Excalibur) owners love your phone but just wish you had some of that high-speed, 3G goodness? Well, HTC’s got your back. The HTC Cavalier comes to us as the successor to the HTC Excalibur (which is the T-mobile Dash that you guys love so much) and rocks a 3G radio that works on US-friendly frequencies. And, the FCC has just green-lighted the HTC Cavalier for release in the US. With the FCC’s approval, this GSM phone is likely to hit US shores, getting you you’re 3G fix, sometime soon. As is par for the course with these FCC glimpses, they’ve kept availability and pricing information on lockdown. We also have no confirmation (there are a lot of unknowns) on a possible carrier for the HTC Cavalier, but seeing as how it’s a GSM phone, we’re looking at AT&T to launch this thing. And, we’re expecting the HTC Cavalier to complement that awesome 3G data with some beautiful Windows Mobile 6.0 action. [Via: Engadget Mobile ]
