The latest HTC Athena specs shown at The Unwired now match closely to the specifications I’ve seen and I feel quite confident that these are true.
Rather than the 3.5″ screen, its got a 5″ screen at VGA resolution and there’s the 624Mhz Xscale there rather than the Samsung 400Mhz CPU. 5″ Screen. Its going to challenge the Nokia Communicator/E90 perhaps?
Shame its not an 800×480 screen but it should make an awesome net-connected PMP. Will HTC offer the VIA Ondemand service on it I wonder?
Here’s the Unwired news with full specs and remember that this device is rumored to be just around the corner!

Now it’s getting interesting.
I’ve been waiting for something more along the lines of a tablet.
Now, if they could just put some sort of tiny lcd or audio caller id in bluetooth headsets, this would be killer…oh hell, it is without it.

Um, the 624Mhz Xscale is slower than the Samsung ARM9 400mhz.
This is close to the specs of the HP hx4700 released more than a year ago.
