The HTC Dream is reported to be one of the first finished, production ready Android OS based mobile phones to hit the market. So far we know that it will have a large touch-screen, a keyboard underneath, a handful of basic keys below the screen, and possibly a 300MHz processor. Most of the HTC Dream’s features are still up in the air, but there are a few more below.
Other than those features there was talk of a trackball and a Qualcomm chipset which we’ve seen in several examples running Quake at around 30 frames per second. Furthermore, the phone will likely have 3G, no word whether it will be HSPA or EV-DO, but if I had to guess, HSDPA since it’s supported almost everywhere that has 3G. If the HTC Dream contains 3G, it’s quite possible they’ll support older data connections as well such as EDGE for those that aren’t covered by 3G just yet. The HTC Dream is shaping up to be the status phone of the year when it’s released.
In summary, you’ll have a mobile phone that has a large touch screen similar to several other designs from HTC, but unlike most of the others, you’ll have a full QWERTY keyboard underneath the screen (still not sure if the screen slides or rotates out of the way). However it will still be possible to do everything on just the screen, the keyboard is just an added bonus to make emails, notes, and other such tasks much easier. HTC dubbed this phone the Dream, and if I had to guess they’ve taken every step to make it the phone you’ve always Dreamed of.
