HTC LEO – Is it a MID?

Over at our sister website, WindowsPhoneMix.com, we have published some tasty pictures of upcoming HTC’s flagship model, HTC LEO. Immediately after taking a quick glance at its specs, it was pretty clear that this phone is big. But, is it big as a MID? It is still very much pocketable and slim just like iPhone (which is also a powerful MID, which, unfortunately, cannot multi-task).

The HTC LEO is rumored to be the first Windows Mobile device to sport a capacitive display just like iPhone. However, HTC LEO has much higher screen resolution than iPhone: WVGA (800×480), which will allow you to see much more information at a particular time. Oh and the display size is 4.3-inches!
