Going way back to April 2009, when the sky was the limit for Windows Mobile and half-dozen.5 was our groovy hope, Toshiba was simply ramping up their plans for devices. Nosotros had the monstrous (at the time) TG01 on the scene (though no U.S. 3G on board) and then came word of the TG02 and TG03.

While the TG02 eventually saw the light of day (for a refresh, see our easily on with video), the TG03 disappeared from the creation. Until today.

According to theunwired.net information technology looks like the TG03 has received that sweet Euro certification from the Global Certification Forum (GCF), clearing it for near-release condition. Information technology was signed off with quadband GSM/GPRS/Edge too as triband UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA at 800/850/2100 MHz, and then you lot know what that means...

The 2009 specs would still exist solid for today, if they are unchanged: a 4.1 inch touchscreen, Snapdragon processor, a 5-megapixel camera, 5.1 (simulated) audio pumped out of two speakers, and "video box" mode to easily get video off the device. Then again, we'd find it difficult to believe that some of that wasn't upgraded in the last year and one-half.

But the million dollar question is: what Bone? Unfortunately, we just don't know. While the original TG03 was a WM6.5 device, it makes sense with the timing that this would be Toshiba'southward push button into WP7 territory--even if they're not named as a launch partner. Then once more, that petty damn droid bot has been stealing our thunder...
