Helio Ocean 2, first clear images released

Helio Ocean 2, first images released

At this point, it is not a secret that the Ocean 2 will be coming. We have already seen the FCC approval come way back in March, and even saw a leaked and blurry shot show up a few months later in June. But sadly, up till now, we have not seen any real quality images of the upcoming device. Now, courtesy of the FCC we have a few shots and not only do they show off a good amount of detail they are also nice and clear.

The Ocean 2 is not expected to hit the market until sometime in January of 2009. But the good news is that aside from these nice images, we also have a few new details. Obviously, from the pics you can see that the Ocean 2 will retain the same dual slider design as the original Ocean which gives you a numeric keypad along with a full QWERTY keyboard so you can show off your texting skills. Otherwise, it is expected to feature a QVGA display, 2-megapixel camera, stereo Bluetooth, EVDO 3G, a microSD card slot, full HTML browser and a touch sensitive navigation pad.

It is interesting to note that in these images the Ocean 2 still retains the Helio branding, of course with the finalization of the Virgin Mobile/Helio merger one cannot help but wonder if the Helio logo will make the final retail version.
