HTC Star Trek on sale in Asia as Dopod S300
Well, hello there sonny. The HTC Star Trek just went on sale in HTC's home country of Taiwan as the Dopod S300. Remember, this is that quad-band GSM / EDGE Windows Mobile 5.0 smartphone which pocketinfo.nl called the "fastest Windows Mobile power device" they had ever seen. So just to put you out of your misery (or perhaps, be the cause of it), the Star Trek has, uh, landed for NT$13,900 or about $428 US dollars. We're still expecting these to go on sale in Europe any day now with the US, hopefully, soon thereafter. [Via MS Mobiles]

I can't wait to get my hands on one of these. Not normally a clamshell fan, but c'mon, it's HTC!

Taiwan does't usually get the latest HTC phones. In fact the Dopod 838 (Wizard) was introduced several month after European debute and just 5 months (including delay) than N.A. introduction. To be only 5 months ahead of the US is almost like a slap in the face for an Asian country, especially one that's a leader in mobile technology. Not to mention the fact that they get to pay more as well. I guess that HTC heard the complaints and finally released a cool phone in Taiwan before anywhere else, and the PCHOME special even includes a friggin HTC t-shirt, as that will make it up.
All that said, to compare the V3/Razr with this phone is a joke. The Star Trek can do 100x more thing than that chick phone. It's not even in the same league.
