Online retailer Expansys has leaked the HTC Iolite in its UK website. The Iolite hasn't been announced by HTC yet, and it's the first time it appears in public.

The device appears to have no keyboard, and controlled by a 2.8" touchscreen, with QWVGA resolution, only. The design is somewhat similar to the HTC Touch Diamond in layout only.

The Iolite features HSDPA and HSUPA connectivity, as well as A-GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a 3.2 megapixel camera. In technical specifications, there is a Qualcomm MSM7225 processor with 528 MHz, 288MB of RAM, Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system with HTC TouchFLO 3D user interface, and a microSD memory card slot for expansion.

The phone weighs 103g only, and will last 6.7 hours of talk time thanks to its 1100mAh battery. Price is not available, nor is the release date.
