Other than the smartphone’s paint job everything will remain the same so you will still be getting a high end smartphone complete with a 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus display touting a 800 x 480 resolution, 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage alongside a microSD/SDHC slot, 8 megapixel rear facing camera with 1080p video recording, 2 megapixel front facing camera, 1850mAh battery and Android ‘Gingerbread’ 2.3.6. On that note, holding off may not be the most necessary thing but let’s be honest, the device in white looks a lot sleeker.

No word on a price point or release date but as soon as it’s made known we’ll push it your way.

HTC was the first company to launch an Android smartphone in the United States, the first to launch a WiMAX smartphone on Sprint and the first to sell a 4G LTE device on Verizon Wireless. “We will focus on the product next year, better and more competitive,” HTC’s chief financial officer Winston Yung told Reuters, noting that the situation isn’t that serious. “Other than new LTE phones for the U.S. market, we also have phones for the global market. We will launch some worldwide flagship products. We’re confident in them. We have six quarters of improvement, the most conservative guidance is 45 million units of shipments this year, a lot higher than 25 million last year.”

Citigroup blamed the weak fourth quarter sales on “inferior products” that weren’t able to keep up with Samsung’s Galaxy S II and Apple’s iPhone family. Additionally, investors aren’t so sure that HTC can maintain the innovation that has made its past phones so attractive. “More foreign investors are still selling HTC as the company doesn’t have many bets in hand,” Masterlink Investment Advisory vice president Tom Tang told Reuters. ”And unlike last time [the company was in this position], HTC didn’t make a share buyback plan this time.”

HTC’s ongoing lawsuits will not help the situation, either. The company recently said that it will not appeal a 2009 ruling that gave IPCom the winning hand in a patent lawsuit. The decision could result in a German injunction against sales of HTC’s smartphones, which could hurt sales during the holiday season.

BGR recently reported exclusive details surrounding two upcoming HTC smartphones — the HTC Ville and HTC Edge — both of which are expected to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain in February.

Now the folks in Mountain View have created an extension for the Flash desktop app that allows you to export your working files to something a little more up to date with a single click — or a combination of keystrokes for you pros. So if you’re worried you’d have to brush up on your coding wizardry, it seems you’re safe… for now. If you’re sporting Flash CS4 or newer, hit that source link to download the goods.

The company also reported an increase in net income, raking in $178.3 million for Q3 2011, up from $151.6 million last quarter and $84.9 million last year. The company’s CEO, Jen-Hsun Huang, unsurprisingly attributed the growth to the mobile market as well as the outfit’s GPU business, and continued to boast of future good times, riding the quad-core wave.

For many a year now, Apple and also HTC have been fighting it out to get top spot when it comes to who may have the very best smart-phone. HTC made the decision that peppering the market industry with almost all they have would have been a far better approach compared to Apple’s concept of simply focussing on the one particular smart-phone, giving it all of their Apple power and seeing exactly where it got them. Well, so far so good for Apple as they have perched at the very top of the tree for a time now, untouchable by all around them.

Well maybe now they might start stressing a little bit about their rivals. HTC now have armed the fortress and are really rallying their own troops in this fight in an attempt to oust Apple from the top of the tree and they are getting quite close with some of their newer handsets. The likes of the HTC HD7 and the Desire HD are definitely pressing Apple’s buttons.

Everyone knows that HTC have got the ability of developing an iPhone beating smart-phone of their own although I think they’d rather just spend their funds on a couple of good devices and one or two excellent handsets instead of spending all their cash on just one awesome smart-phone. You can see their reasons behind this yet after Apple’s results with the iPhone you can only wonder if they ever thought about concentrating all their work on one unholy, unearthly great handset to blow apart the iPhone, and Steve Job’s huge mouth as well!

Whether they will do this, as of yet continues to be unknown however any kind of hardened HTC fan would perhaps live in the hope that they would do this. However the chances of them really doing it is quite slim. So we shouldn’t blabber on too much and get peoples hopes up. It simply isn’t fair; they must be able to make do using what is already available on the market at the moment.

The truth is, would be that the marketplace is constantly transforming and there are fresh mobile phones being released each month, so you might think that the Apple iPhone would struggle with new handsets being released but that isn’t the case as they tend to be so precise in the way they market their own handsets and the one, key thing is the quantity of apps that are available for you to download from the App store. This my buddy is what keeps the Apple customers happy and it is also where HTC are lacking, the majority of the HTC handsets working on Google Android and also the amount and the quality of apps that are available. If you would like one of these handsets then why don’t you have a glance around and who knows you may find some very good HTC HD7 deals.

GPS is one of the latest and most innovative developments in the world of communications.  Due to the nature of the technology, which thrives off radio signals delivered by a network of satellites orbiting the earth, it is easily able to extend its functionality to mobile phones as they work in similar fashion with cell phone towers.

Many of the cell phones today have GPS capabilities that allow them to perform a wide range of useful functions.  Connecting with emergency response teams, location tracking and navigation are just some of the abilities cell phone owners enjoy.

From Space to Your Phone

Navigation systems in general are supported by the aforementioned constellation of satellites.  24 hours a day, 365 days a year, these satellites are orbiting the earth in cyclic patterns.  A minimum of four satellites are accessible to any single point on the earth at any given time, which enables them to start tracking the device.  Once the device has been activated, the satellite signals are automatically transmitted.

The exact location of your cell phone is determined through a process known as trilateration, in which three satellites work collectively to narrow down location points.  During this process, a fourth satellite compiles the information and determines a match.  Distance calculations are based on how long it takes the signals to travel between the satellite and GPS receiver.

Mapping capabilities are then displayed on your screen via the cell phone network’s database.  The accuracy of these maps will all depend on how frequently your provider makes updates to its database.

Improved Accuracy through Your Mobile Phone

In order for any GPS unit to function properly, there must be a clear line of sight between the sky and the receiver.  Because this is not always possible, it is very common to receive inaccurate readings or no signal information at all on a sat nav device.  Using your GPS-enabled cell phone in a building, near a tall building or in the obstruction of trees may result in these signal problems.

To achieve better results, many of the newer cell phones rely on Assisted GPS, as this enhanced technology uses a cellular network’s assistance server in addition to the satellites.  Using cell towers, the phone relays satellite data to the server.  Because the server has the ability to process incoming data at higher rates than sat nav receivers, the information is transmitted faster, which often results in better accuracy than what the device could achieve on its own.
