Man, we hope this is true. Switzerland's Zenum has been talking up its gorgeous "Opus Operis" concept Pocket PC
for a while now -- but as is too often the case, the alleged release date came and went with no product in sight. Zenum's site has been reborn recently, though, suggesting that the company is still on track to eventually offer the QWERTY device, this time with a spring '07 launch. Though the site shows Windows Mobile 5 as the platform of choice, we trust Zenum will have the wisdom to switch over to 6 by the time the Opus gets out the door. Other specs should include 128MB ROM, 64MB RAM, 2 megapixel cam, 802.11b/g, Bluetooth 1.2, and a tri-band GSM radio (no 850MHz, apparently) atop a 200MHz OMAP750. We'd love to see a successful launch on this one, folks, but we'd
gladly wait a few weeks if you could squeeze some quadband action in there. Oh, and Windows Mobile 6, while you're at it, eh?

I wonder who actually makes this. Specs-wise it is probably a Ubiquio 501/JAQ3 under the hood, with even the same placement of the miniUSB port, headphone port, SD slot, speaker and camera. So my suspicion is that it is a TechFaithWireless job.
I wonder how much the premium is going to be for a shiny shell, but what doesn't look like a very useable keyboard?
Like the Jaq3/4, no 3G or HSDPA.
Looks nice but whats the point if you cant access data quickly.
Its not coming nor will work in this country.
