HTC Startrek Smartphone

HTC launched its greatly anticipated STRTrk cell phone. For those of you who haven’t heard about HTC corporation,

HTC Corporation, founded on May 15th 1997, specializes in designing and manufacturing world-class mobile computing and communication solutions for OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and ODM (original design manufacturer) customers. Since its establishment, HTC has become one of the most respected Windows CE device OEMs/ODMs.

Available in black, silver or pink; it is the first music-focused clamshell Smartphone to pack great entertainment features into an ultra slim, design-led shell as well as offering the option of syncing into the office to update emails and documents.

Our mission has always been to drive mass adoption of Smartphone technology and we knew we needed something special to do that, the STRTrk will give Smartphone enthusiasts the chance to turn heads; it’s not only packed with power and functionality, but it looks great and that is what will drive the market. The style-ID is spot on and we’ve achieved the right balance between entertainment and business capability to give it the all important wide appeal that the next generation of Smartphones need to deliver.

Weighing 99 grams and just 16mm thin, the STRTrk (Qtek 8500) cellular phone combines model looks with a business brain. The main body of the cell phone is matte black whilst the colored metal outer shell has dedicated play, fast forward and rewind buttons as well as a backlit 1.2″ TFT LCD for viewing and controlling music play-lists. The STRTrk operates in Quad-band EDGE/GSM/GPRS mode

Once opened, the STRTrk cell phone sports a larger backlit 2.2″ QVGA screen for viewing familiar Microsoft Office applications via Windows Mobile 5.0 (Pocket Outlook and Office Mobile, which includes PowerPoint viewer , Excel Mobile and Word Mobile). From our testing, the STRTrk cell phone comes with clear resolution display screen that amaze us when we try to snap photos with its built-in 1.3 megapixel digital camera

Besides that, like other Smartphones in the market, the STRTrk Smartphone can be a adorable gadget for music lover as Windows Media Player can plays songs in an formats. To store and carry more tracks with you, there is a MicroSD memory slot that allows you buy more memory and carry all your favorite songs with you.

Accessing Microsoft Office and full direct push email couldn’t be simpler. Users are able to sync in with Microsoft® Exchange 2003 servers that run on Service Pack 2 to connect to their PC. What does this mean in the real world Consummate professionals can run their lives through one device rather than carrying a separate phone and PDA. Peter Chou, CEO & President of HTC concludes, We’re so close to the idea of carrying your world in your pocket that we can almost touch it.

Smartphones represent a significant market for us and a Windows Mobile platform with mobile email is well received in our specialist retail and corporate sales channels, said Rod Millar, MD of 20:20 Logistics. As the UK’s current sole STRTrk distributor, we believe this phone will give our customers competitive edge; providing great functionality for the business user in a compact clam style popular with consumers.
