The HTC Athena is huge when you look at it as a smart phone, but it is small and compact when you look at it as a laptop. The phone is hefty and weighs 12.6 ounces and it can fit only inside a big purse or a bag. The design of Athena is very much similar to a laptop and the full QWERTY keyboard is a flat piece that is attached to the phone using magnet. This keyboard doubles as a cover for Athena. You can view battery life, time, network strength and other information directly without opening the cover using a window at the bottom.

HTC Athena features a massive 5\" TFT LCD screen which makes it more than just a smart phone. The large screen is wonderful to carry out your business tasks and view multimedia content. The touch screen is pretty good, but when you have the keyboard out, you have to press the screen hard to activate menus and actions.

HTC Athena runs Windows Mobile 6 operating system with complete office suite and Windows Live Integration. The apps available in the phone certainly help you to stay connected with your office on the road using this tablet like phone. Athena has an array of connectivity options and it also enables wireless synchronization of mobile devices. Both Internet Explorer and Opera can be used on Athena and home screen can be completely customized.

The huge HTC Athena may not be preferable as a phone, but it certainly allows voice capabilities. There is no earpiece as it makes no sense for a huge phone, but it has a high quality speaker. The 3 megapixel camera shoots pretty decent images and videos, but the quality is not just sufficient for a smart phone that doubles as a tablet. "; include 'phone.php'; ?>
