HTC Iolite gets outed by retailer
We’re not sure which is worse – the infamous blurry-cam leak or the tiny-pic leak. Neither affords much in the way of a satisfying visual aid but hey, something is better than nothing. This time around, HTC’s upcoming “Iolite” is getting the tiny-pic treatment courtesy of Expansys UK and though no release date or pricing info are listed, the mobile retailer is already making the handset available for pre-order. Judging by the specs listed on the product page, the Iolite is yet another Windows Mobile-powered touchscreen handset that offers little in terms of innovation or even evolution. We’ll have to wait for official word from HTC however before jumping to conclusions. In the meantime, we can all hope that the retailer omitted some stunning details that will make us a bit more excited. Until then, hit the jump for the full specs as listed by Expansys.

What more do you want from a Smartphone? Could you state the “innovation or even evolution” you expect to see. From those specs, that phone is nice!
I think what he is implying is that it has the same or very similar specs as the last several WinMo phones from HTC.
If it ain’t broke….
