  • T-Mobile just released the Shadow device yesterday and it brings a fun, custom UI developed by Microsoft and HTC. You can now access and control all the primary functions of your device from the unique Home screen. This kind of customization is needed to bring consumers to Windows Mobile and the Shadow may be a hit.

  • HTC and T-Mobile have done a great job with the packaging that reminds me of the high quality Samsung Q1 UMPC packaging.

  • The Shadow lies on a soft foam bed when you lift the lid on the black box. It really focuses you in on the device.

  • The battery capacity is only 920 mAh. A splitter cable is provided so you can sync and charge while using the headset. The wired headset uses the HTC proprietary port.

  • The green keyboard is well backlit and every key is clear to see.
