Dopod D810 successor appears Down Under

John Chan | Aug 17, 2007

Users in Australia are the first to get the HTC P3600i, the successor to the HTC P3600, more commonly known as the Dopod D810 in this region. This PDA-phone has started appearing on Australian online stores, and some enthusiasts on message boards based there have already been discussing their purchases.

As was reported earlier, this new PDA-phone will come with more memory and a faster processor. It has a 500MHz Samsung chip and 256MB of ROM, though the RAM remains the same as the D810 at 64MB. ROM is used for storing applications and data, while RAM is temporary storage for running applications. Other features remain largely similar with HSDPA connectivity and built-in GPS. Its design is also similar to the D810, with the most obvious difference being the HTC logo rather than Dopod.

CNET Asia spoke to a HTC representative who confirmed that the P3600i is already available in Thailand, too. It will go on sale in Singapore at the end of August, but the company was unable to confirm its release for the rest of Asia Pacific at this point. No official pricing is available yet either. The Australian online stores list this model with prices just slightly past the A$1,000 (US$777) mark.

Thanks, Allan, for the tip.
