Introduction, packaging
I don’t know what’s with me nowadays, I might be growing old. I’ve put up with the fact that I don’t know the series numbering of mobile phones and so I just nod my head and smile when I receive a phone, as I haven’t the slightest idea what do I get. There has been no example, however, of me not knowing the type of a PDA, and now here it is: SpeedShop announced me that here’s HTC Sedna, I can take it. And I’ve just kept blinking and upon receipt I realized: this is Sirius.
As a matter of fact this has been the codename of P6500 until its launch; somehow still Sedna is the label on the box. There is still some consistency in this naming, as Sirius is the dog-star, that is the main star of the Canis Major constellation and it’s four times brighter than a conventional major star. Sedna is also an astronomical concept, as to the best of my knowledge it is the furthest object in our stellar system. By the way it’s a member of the Oort cloud, something scientists couldn’t observe until the present day, its existence is proven only by comets getting near the Sun. This is so interesting that I put a picture of it in the review.
The real Sedna
Based on this information the name-change wasn’t illogic, as P6500 is at least as far from other HTC devices than Sedna is from Earth. Sirius, on the other hand, should have been left some kind of multimedia device, as the adjective “bright” doesn’t match at all such a large brick this is. Packaging is the usual, demanding box with a magnetic lid; sync cable, charger, stereo headset, textile case, backup stylus and display-protection foil included.
