HTC Arrive
At the Windows Phone 7 launch event in October, HTC gave us a glimpse of the HTC 7 Pro/HTC Arrive. Unfortunately, this wasn't a working demo, so we could only get a look at the phone's overall design.

Similar to past HTC Pro models, the 7 Pro has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. However, the phone is smaller overall, which is a good thing.

Though the phone is smaller, the size doesn't compromise the keyboard's ease of use. With the spacious buttons and raised keys, it felt quite comfortable to use.
