Thanks to Expansys, the HTC Iolite has been revealed prior to its official HTC announcement. Based on the specs published, it would appear that HTC is positioning this in the middle of their device catalogue.
The HTC Iolite will be powered by a 528MHz Qualcomm MSM7225 processor and Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional with the HTC TouchFLO 3D user interface. It will come with quad-band (850/900/1800/1900MHz) GSM/GPRS/EDGE and dual-band (900/2100MHz) HSDPA/HSUPA connectivity, a 2.8-inch QWVGA display, 288MB RAM and 512MB ROM, GPS and A-GPS ready, 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.0+EDR and A2DP, 3.2MP camera, microSD card slot, and an 1100mAh battery.
At this point, there is no word on when the HTC Iolite will be announced and what it will sell for. There is word either on whether we will see a North American version.
