Spy shot reveals possible new HTC handset(s)

OK, so we know that HTC are hosting a big event on May 6th - could some of these handsets be part of it? Well, apart from the P3470 (second handset in) we've never seen any of these before. The picture, taken from mobile-review.com (we've chopped the top row of phones because we've seen these) states that all handsets are HTC-built. Now, there's rumours on the net that the two on the right are possibly versions of the T-Mobile MDA Compact IV, however - we'd like to put forward another theory...

The first handset looks very interesting - a rather capacious full QWERTY keyboard, 3G capability (due to the face-pointing video camera) and touch-sensitive navigation controls. Now, we'd say there's a chance it's perhaps the same handset as the two on the right, just rotated and with an open keyboard. Then we'd be prepared to say that this may be a handset we've heard about already - the HTC Raphael (TyTN III). So, is this the first shot of the HTC TyTN III ? Well, read on for our thinking behind this one. :) Is this also the first proper look at the new HTC interface (Manila - third handset along) ? We'll have to wait a bit longer to see what transpires early next month. :)
