Here’s an interesting new Windows Mobile Phone for CDMA users. According to Phonescoop, the HTC Libra will have EVDO Revision A high speed internet. It’s also got both a phone-style numeric keypad on the front, with a slide-out keyboard. Look at where the spacebar is on the keyboard though. I don’t see a directional pad either.

The next HTC phone to sport the legendary imate JAM form factor will probably be the HTC Trinity. It sports most of the features you might expect in an upgrade from the Prophet model, such as 64MB of RAM, 128MB of ROM, a 2.8-inch QVGA display, Bluetooth, WiFi, EDGE, HSDPA, a microSD slot, VGA and 2.0 megapixel cameras.

The 60GB version has the same dimensions but weighs 5.3 ounces (the 60GB iPod weighs 5.5 ounces). …
