Fennec or Firefox Mobile is still in the making. That means that Mozilla is testing its mobile browser for various mobile platforms. Firefox Mobile is currently available for Windows Mobile 6 but it’s still in its alpha state.

The alpha has been particularly made for the HTC Touch Pro, so if you own one you can try the Fennec out. The alpha version will offer you the Awesome Bar search field front and center, suggested search terms and search history. Mozilla built the interface for alpha 1 for Windows Mobile using CSS. That means that Fennec will be able to adjust to various screen sizes and resolutions.

You should definitely try out the alpha 1 but don’t expect too much from it just yet. Bugs may still be present so make sure you offer some feedback about all that Fennec experience to Mozilla. And let us know what you think about it.

Firefox Mobile is finally ready to enter the mobile market. We’ve been waiting for quite a while for Fennec and it seems that HTC Touch Pro owners will be able to load it up on their device next week. We’ve seen it run on a Nokia Internet Tablet before, and those guys at Mozilla surely know how to build a good browser. I’m a huge fan of Mozilla Firefox myself so I’d expect the mobile version to offer us the same great web browsing experience. We’re waiting for an official release as I am sure not only HTC Touch Pro owners need a new browser!

The AT&T Fuze looks similar to the HTC Touch Pro because it’s exactly the same phone. We know the carrier is coming but we have absolutely no idea about when that’s going to happen.

People are talking, and what they say is the Fuze is going to be released sometime this week. It’s only Monday so we’ll have plenty of time to confirm it. What do you think? Would you get a Fuze?

If you happen to go to Sprint’s website, don’t forget to check out the HTC Touch Pro. The handset is now available for $299 after a $100 mail-in rebate and with a two-year contract. You’d have to choose an Everything plan, Data Premier add-on or a PRO Pack in order to take advantage of the rebate.

With the HTC G1 out there and with the Storm approaching for a rumored incredible low price, the Touch Pro might not be the hottest phone out there, but it’s certainly a handset to be considered in case you’re looking to buy a new phone!

Verizon seems ready for a totally mind-blowing month of handset sales. Besides the BlackBerry Storm which should be quite the gift to receive this Christmas, the carrier is rumored to prepare other hot handsets for a November launch.

The Samsung Omnia and the HTC Touch Pro (or the XV6850) should be the most expected phones to arrive with Verizon Wireless embedded on them. Besides those, two other Samsung phones are likely to arrive, the Epix and the Renown. We will confirm these new arrivals once we get the chance!

The day some of us have been waiting for has finally arrived! Sprint released the HTC Touch Pro with limited availability through select national retailers beginning this Monday, October 27th.

Everyone else who won’t get one of those limited first handsets will be able to get them starting with November 2nd when the phone will be available in all Sprint stores. The handset will cost you $299 with a 2-year agreement if you already have an everything plan or a $25 data add-on.

Sorry for all of you who are waiting for this phone. But, the rumors are true, the HTC Touch Pro launch will be delayed. Back at CTIA Fall 2008, Sprint announced that it would offer the HTC Touch Pro smartphone with an expected ship date of October 19. Seeing that the date is drawing close, lots of people were checking Sprint to see details on the launch. Unfortunately, the Touch Pro will not be available on the 19, but now we’re looking to see the Windows Mobile 6.1 device around the end of October/early November.

Here is the statement from Sprint:

“Sprint expects to slightly delay launch of the Touch Pro by HTC to ensure we have adequate inventory in all channels before making the device commercially available. Customers can expect the device to become available in select national retailers by the end of the month and then in all Sprint sales channels including online at www.sprint.com and Sprint Stores by early November.”

Sprint was going to launch the HTC Touch Pro smartphone on October 19th which is just two days away from now. The new release date might be scheduled for the end of the month or early November.
Sprint officials claim that the delay is caused by insufficient supply. The phone is expected to sell really well and Sprint doesn’t want to be caught off guard near the holiday season. In the mean time Best Buy is going to release the phone before Sprint does, so check with them if you desperately need the Touch Pro.

Alltel is the next carrier in the U.S. to launch an HTC device this year. The HTC Touch Pro is their chosen device and it’s said it will be coming in the near future. We’d like to know what a near future looks like. What are the prices for an Alltel HTC Touch Pro?

The leaked photo above is the only proof which supports such a launch as there’s no official announcement for Alltel. Or Verizon for that matter.

It appears that the HTC Fuze for AT&T has cleared the tall gates of the FCC. The device, bearing FCC ID NM8RPLT, is a PDA phone supporting HSUPA 850/1900MHz networks. As with some of the cooler gadgets, the manufacturers have put in special requests to block the device photos from being published on a public website such as that of the FCC.

Anyway, it’s got the usual goodies like Bluetooth, so when it hits the mainstream, we will know more - so you’ll know more. We promise.

Word on the street is that AT&T is going to pick up the new HTC handset, the Touch Pro and they will rebrand it as the HTC Fuze. I don’t know why they want to change the name, but it’s good to know they are bringing the Touch Pro to the US market.

The HTC Fuze is said to be available “sooner rather than later” whatever that means. There aren’t any concrete news on pricing either but I am counting on AT&T employees to leak these details on time like they always do.
