The AT&T Tilt (aka TyTN II/HTC Kaiser) is a new Windows Mobile 6 Professional device that runs on a fast 400 MHz processor with 3.5G support, integrated WiFi, Bluetooth, and GPS. The display tilts up so you can put it into “laptop” mode.

The number keypad keys have a white background instead of black so they stand out on the device. The keys are rubberized and quite flat on the device.
