Like most new HTC codenames, the Rose had been a bit of a mystery to us when it first came out of the woodwork in some Bluetooth SIG documentation; it later turned out to be the very well-concealed S740. Unlike the ROSE100 model that we saw with the SIG, though, the FCC latched onto a ROSE110, giving us fleeting hope that there might be some North American 3G buried in this one. Alas, it's nothing more than EDGE 850 / 1900, Bluetooth, and WiFi -- a crying shame, considering what a unique little beast the S740 turned out to be. Maybe we can hold out hope for a ROSE120 down the road?Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
