It is becoming quite hard to produce an original intro to a review of another Pocket PC from High Tech Computer (HTC) as there have been so many lately. The HTC P4350 (codename HTC Herald), which is in the spotlight this time, was a pleasure to review. I would like to thank Sunnysoft, a mobile solutions company, for lending me a specimen for review purposes.

Such a large portfolio makes it difficult to differentiate individual models substantially. A quick look at the technical specifications will reveal many similarities with the HTC P3300 (Artemis) that we reviewed recently, although the devices look completely different. In short, take out the GPS module and the unique HTC RollR? control, add a slider keyboard and voila: we can herald a new device. The review is going to be detailed as usual, but if you have read the big review of HTC Artemis, it may sound familiar to you at some points.

The HTC Herald is going to be sold under mobile operator brands with graphic themes and bonus applications different from the one reviewed herein. This was a model sold as HTC P4350, with black and green as the dominant colours.

A 2-GB microSD A-Data memory card was inserted, and the device was connected to an Asus S6F laptop PC. All parameters, benchmarks, applications, and screenshots herein pertain to that version of the system and may vary from other versions or configurations. I started writing this review with a pre-production unit without the HTC logo and with slightly different colours, as you can see in some photographs.

The stylus is 90 millimetres long, 3.5 millimetres thick, and weighs 3 grams. There are two of them included in the package. The stylus consists of several parts: the main, shiny part is made of some light metal, the tip and the top are plastic. It holds well but the grip would have been yet better if the main part were a little thicker.

The black case is quite ordinary, looking much the same as that bundled with the Artemis. It consists of two pieces of leather (or leatherette) joined together by four elastic straps to form a pocket. The upper part of the rear piece flips over the opening and attaches to the front with a magnetic buckle to protect the device against damage. In addition, there is a belt clip on the back. The case does not provide much protection in general: whereas the front panel including the display is sufficiently protected against damage, the sides are left more vulnerable as a price for easy access to various controls.
