Take this relatively boring TS605, for example: yeah, it's got a microSD slot, a 1.3 megapixel cam, and me-too thinphone styling, but we can't help but be drawn to the mystery of a candybar we can't get in these parts.
The 220 x 176 display is subpar, the 1.3 megapixel cam perfectly average, and the 64MB of internal memory with microSD expansion merely ho-hum, but the integrated FM radio, A2DP, and touchscreen with Chinese character recognition are pretty nifty.
Of course, the most interesting part of the device is that numeric keypad on the face of the phone, with a semi-automatic sliding QWERTY keyboard tucked behind, but at 0.7-inches thick, it looks like HTC managed to keep things relatively slim, despite the extra keys.
