They did try hard, but Toshiba was just a bit off-target when releasing the Portege G910. It had been announced some time ago, but now it’s official.

The Toshiba is mainly focused on GPS, and has good connectivity options, Bluetooth v2.0, WiFi and USB v2.0. In network terms, there is quad-band GSM/EDGE and tri-band UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA.

The feature that stole "glamour" from the Toshiba was the low QVGA resolution in the huge 2.8" touchscreen.

Powering the G910 is a Qualcomm MSM7200 (400MHz) processor, with 256MB of ROM and 128MB of RAM. There is also a satisfying 1530 mAh battery. Internal memory isn’t a feature to talk about, instead there is support for microSD cards.

To finish, a 3 megapixel camera with autofocus was included, and supporting everything is Windows Mobile Professional, I’m guessing version 6.0.

This does come as a suprise, I still hadn’t seen a 3G/HSDPA phone without a colour screen, but the Toshiba G450 is a different case.

Taking the shape of a MP3 player, the G450 weighs 57g only and was made to be used as a modem, and it supports GPRS and EDGE as well.

It has a standard USB port, which means that it might be quite thick, so we just have to wait for the live pictures for comparison.

I really don’t like communicators, be them Nokia, HTC, Imate or whatever you want. I find it hard to type in QWERTY keyboards that have keys the 10% of the size of a normal computer keyboard.

Nevertheless, the Toshiba G920 does have fulfilling specs, apart the 2 megapixel camera. The HSDPA trend is in, but what is so good about it is the resolution, which beats the E90 just for 38400 pixels, the E90 has 352×800 resolution while the Toshiba has 400×800. If you think this is not much, you must be forgetting that the Portege has a 3" display while the E90 has a 4". The G900 did have 480×800 resolution, so I’m wondering why the change…

More goodies are the integrated GPS and the 128MB of RAM which should be enough as it will use Windows Mobile 6.

Specs include:

• Tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900) connectivity,
• GPRS/EDGE, UMTS and HSDPA 3.6 Mbps data transfer
• 3″ Wide-VGA 400×800 px, 65K color display
• 2 megapixel camera, VGA front camera
• Integrated GPS
• ROM 256 MB/RAM 128 MB
• Bluetooth 2.0, Wi-Fi, USB
• 1320 mAh battery, 460 hrs stand-by, 300 min talk time
• Dimensions: 117×64×19.8 mm, 145 cc
• Weight: 183 g

The funny thing is that wherever I went, I found this phone to be called G920 but the picture under G910. You can check the full specs here.
