HTC PC70110 passes through FCC with At&t 3G bands and TP2 like QWERTY

Typically, when we get wind of a new handset hitting the FCC’s website, we may get a few sketches of the battery compartment, showing off where the FCC’s label will appear.  Today, things are a bit different.  The HTC PC70110 has just appeared on the site, along with a few pictures which give us a pretty clear idea of what the new handset will look like.  If you have been holing out for a good replacement for the HTC Dream, the HTC PC70110 will most likely be your handset of choice.  The images reveal a four row QWERTY keyboard which looks identical to the keyboard on the HTC Touch Pro2.  There are four capacitive buttons located under the screen (home, menu, back, and search) and what appears to be an optical joystick.  The FCC documentation also reveals that the HTC PC70110 has support for AT&T’s 850/1900MHz bands.

At this point, it looks like At&t customers may actually get a decent Android phone within the next few months.  If you are at all familiar with the Touch Pro2, you know that it is the best QWERTY keyboard experience on Windows Mobile.  I’m actually surprised it has taken HTC this long to bring it over to the Android side.

  1. Man it seems like every blog out there is reporting this as having a Touch Pro 2 keyboard. The fact is it does NOT have a Touch Pro 2 keyboard.

    I’m hoping we get an Android device with a Touch Pro 2 keyboard in the near future, but this device is not it.

    For one thing, the Touch Pro 2 has a 5 row qwerty, not the 4 that this device has. For another thing, look at the first picture. You will see that the “Z” key is slightly to the left of the “A” key. On the Touch Pro 2, the “Z” key is slightly to the right of the “A” key, just like it is on a computer screen.

    So no, this keyboard is not identical to the Touch Pro 2 keyboard. It will be nice when we get a device that really is sporting a Touch Pro 2 keyboard, but lets not sell that keyboard short by claiming any old slider is identical to it.

  2. i really want this phone to come out really soon!!!!
    my birthday is this month and i would love to have this phone as a birthday gift !
    i hope at&t gets this phone very soon
