Where, oh where did this come from?

 I am not totally sure how this one slipped under the radar, but it appears as though a new device should be dropping pretty soon from O2.
The O2 stealth has appeared on the US FCC website, giving the device approval to be sold in the US. The information is quite sparse at this stage, but it appears as though the device will have the following specifications:
- Tri-band GSM (900/1800/1900 MHz)/GPRS,
- Windows Mobile 5 for Pocket PC Phones,
- Intel PXA 272 416MHz processor,
- 192MB ROM,
- 64MB RAM,
- miniSD memory card slot,
- miniUSB,
- Bluetooth 1.2,
- WiFi 802.11b/g,
- 2.4" (240 x 320) 65k color QVGA TFT touchscreen display,
- 2 megapixel camera with flash and video recorder, and
- 4.3" x 2.0" x 0.88”.
This is obviously quite a small device that is similar to, though not as well spec'd as, the i-Mate JasJam.
The most amazing part of this whole story is that the device is rumoured to be available at the end of September, according to the CNet review of the device.
Hopefully, there will be more information forthcoming soon.

Update (14th September 2006 21:46 AEST): We have received official information that this device will be made available here in Australia before the end of September. Also, they tell us the price of this device is RRP AU$940, which is incredibley cheap (in my opinion only of course). The information indicates that the numerical keypad will be an alternative input method to the touchscreen.
Of note is the fact that it includes A2DP, headset, handsfree and other BT profiles, however, it also has an Audio Jack with 10pin connector whatever that is!
