You might remember i-mate for its rather decent lineup of rugged Windows Mobile smartphones, but the company has been nearly falling apart recently, reportedly due to some rather unpleasant business dealings. Now it seems that HTC might be slowing acquiring the company. There isn’t any official confirmation of such a deal just yet, but the fact that HTC has ported a phone number stating that they would be honoring i-mate warranties might be a good tip of things to come. Do you miss phones from i-mate, or do you think what’s on the market are already good abundant?

Windows Mobile will now receive Opera Mobile 10 beta which is similar in both look and feel as with the Opera 10 for desktop and Opera Mini 5 beta. You do get a host of new features with Opera Mini 10 beta for Windows Mobile which ought to offer a close resemblance to a desktop-like browsing experience though, thanks to a new interface, the inclusion of tabbed browsing, Speed Dial, a password manager, pan and zoom and Opera Turbo. Apart from that, the new Opera Mini additionally plays nice with touchscreen-enabled Windows Mobile smartphones.
