Rumors on the market say that HP is preparing a new silver touchscreen smartphone. Dubbed HP Oak the device is aimed to corporate business, but not only. Running Windows Mobile 6.1, this latest iPAQ smartphone has a side-slider design and also packs 7.2Mbps, HSDPA-based 3G, built-in GPS and Wi-Fi.

The guys at the Wall Street Journal are sure that in a few months HP Oak will debut in Europe and will be sold by a carrier in retail stores. Some other rumors say that Vodafone will take lead and will probably sell it in retails stores.

People close to HP said that the Oak has a large screen and feels solid, but has a “bad” navigation key that doesn’t feel very comfortable. They still have time to change it a bit.
