Good news for those of you in Taiwan (and America, too) who can’t wait to get acquainted with HTC’s Touch, as its creator has reportedly announced that it will be deployed shortly in its “home base,” with an American launch to go down before the dawn of 2008. Peter Chou, chief executive officer at HTC, has purportedly stated that it would “only be fitting if the first country in Asia to sell the Touch was Taiwan,” and also noted that Chunghwa Telecom would be its “exclusive partner in distributing and retailing the handset” in that country. On the home front, all we know is that the Touch should indeed be found on American shelves before the year’s end, but here’s to hoping it’s closer to today than December 31st.

While yesterday’s WWDC may have been relatively uneventful for those keeping an eye out for hardware refreshes, Steve made sure he showed off the desktop of Leopard in as much detail as possible. Interestingly, the newfangled dock he managed to brag about may have looked a tad familiar, and as a clever user over at Maxasia points out, it is. According to him, the dock revealed yesterday sports a “troubling resemblance” to Sun’s Project Looking Glass. Of course, Apple’s icons do look a bit less grainy, but especially when you consider the silver platter that the shortcuts seem to hover over in both iterations, you can certainly start to to see the similarity. But hey, it’s not like Apple hasn’t been down this road before, right?

Just months after Philips went nuts and introduced a plethora of new input peripherals, Kensington is pulling a similar move by launching its colorful Ci Lifestyle Collection of wireless mice and keyboards. Each device was designed to be as thin as comfortably possible, sport advanced power saving abilities, and easily fit into the road warrior’s bag of choice. Kicking things off is the $34.99 Ci70 wireless mouse, which comes in around 35-percent slimmer than common competitors and touts an automatic sleep mode to save those batteries. The $39.99 Ci70LE simply adds a dash of colorful (and bubbly) design, while the $34.99 Ci75m gets even smaller for the mobile crowd. The $39.99 Ci85m sports a QuickStart feature that powers the mouse up as soon as the PC turns on, and opts for an ExpressCard receiver instead of the USB dongle that its less expensive siblings rely on. For those looking for a keyboard / mouse combination, the Ci70 Wireless Desktop Set throws a Ci70 and a low-profile keyboard together in a convenient $79.99 package, and those who’ve already warmed to the cutesy allure will be delighted to know that all of the aforementioned devices are currently available for pre-ordering.
