Yesterday we saw the ASUS PadFone and today, we see the TransPhone from CMIT. The device follows the same principle as the PadFone in that the smartphone docks in the tablet to be charged and provide a larger screen when needed. When we say it follows the same principle, it was actually unveiled before the PadFone which seems to mean that ASUS isn’t the only one who has the idea of combining the two devices.

I have mentioned the HTC Pyramid previously and over the last few months, we’ve seen technical specs leak and we’ve seen a render of the device. We now have the full and official details. What we learn is that the new device will be called the HTC Sensation 4G.
