In Technology Group (ITG) has been toying with the idea of a Windows XP smartphone for close to 2 years, and is finally putting their xpPhone on the market. The xpPhone brings the embedded version of Windows XP to a large, 4.8 inch 800x480 touchscreen device with a slide out QWERTY keyboard.
Besides the fact that this runs Windows, the xpPhone is remarkable for it's keyboard. It's not only a 'full' QWERTY, it also has a separate numerical keypad on the right, as well as buttons that correspond to the left and right mouse buttons. Before you reach for your wallet, you should know that this retails for $798 (3G), $732 (no 3G), and $666 (no 3G, DOS instead of Windows).
