The upcoming HTC Touch Diamond is now featured at the FCC site.

This could mean that the U.S. release is not far away from now, or is it? We'll see, but it would be a shame if this beauty won't make it stateside, after all this is the best HTC smartphone yet (IMHO).

While you wait for it, you can always visit FCC website and get all the information you need.

FCC has approved the rumored Motorola A1600 MING 2 smartphone.

Judging by the available documentation this phone is for the Asian market and is not planned for a stateside release. But if you really want it, there's no problem in buying it outside the U.S. and bringing it back home, as it supports for quad band GSM, which allows for worldwide usage.

Other features include Linux OS, a 3.

FCC unveiled the Samsung i770, the global version of the i760, bound for Verizon.

We've first heard about it back in November, some of you might recall.

The phone comes with GSM and CDMA radios, as well as WiFi and Bluetooth, and probably even HSDPA. That's fine.

Just one observation: they could really change the design, if you ask me.

Usually Pantech phones with a "C" prefix in their model number are bound for AT&T, so we guess the new C610 won't be an exception.

It appeared at the FCC this week. Apparently this is not a smartphone, as it will be much cheaper than the C810. Unfortunately, besides this crappy photo we have almost no info about the device at the moment; just note that it is a red 3G clamshell.

LG AX-300 is a new basic clamshell revealed yesterday at the FCC site.

The phone supports dual-band CDMA network with 1xRTT data. It also comes with an internal antenna, a VGA (probably) camera, a speakerphone, and Bluetooth.

This model will most likely hat Alltel soon, but FCC documentation indicates a couple of other models, including VX-5500 and UX-300, which might be launched on Verizon Wireless or U.

If you recall, we have first seen the ASUS P320 Galaxi Mini at CeBIT show a few months back. Now the phone has appeared at the FCC site with no hints on its pricing and availability in the U.S. Until we hear an official announcement from Asus of some US carrier, we can just play the waiting game...

Here are some of the P320's specs:

• Black color;
• Windows Mobile 6.

FCC unveiled Casio's latest handset called G'zOne aka "Boulder".

The phone will support dual-band CDMA radio with EV-DO Rev. A data, push-to-talk, Bluetooth and will be available from Verizon Wireless in the near future.

That's all for now...

There's a good chance that at least one of HP iPAQ 900 series smartphones will be available in the U.S. as it has recently been spotted at the FCC site.

The most likely carrier is AT&T, though no company has announced its intention to pick up the handset yet.

The new Nokia 6220 Classic has been approved yesterday by the FCC.

It is a high-end cameraphone with a 5Mpix camera with Xenon flash and geotagging capability, thanks to integrated GPS, as well as the ability to shoot videos at 30fps in VGA resolution.

Also it runs on the latest version of the S60 operating system, has a TV-out port, but unfortunately lacks Wi-Fi connectivity.

FCC has unveiled a new, supposedly low-end handset from Sanyo called Katana LX.

It is a clamshell phone with no camera, no external display, no microSD slot, but equipped with Bluetooth and a headset jack.

That's all we can tell you at the moment...
