HTC Espresso proves to be a QWERTY keyboard packin' Hero?

It's nice when things fall perfectly into place. Take the HTC Espresso, for instance. Not yet introduced to the public, Espresso  is actually one of the possible names for future HTC devices found embedded on a ROM. We told you all about it yesterday. But we digress. While no true pictures of the model exist, according to information pulled from an HTC profile obtained by Tweakers.net, the device is actually a GSM version of the HTC Hero with a landscape sliding QWERTY keyboard. Like the Hero, the Espresso has a ARMv6 chip that most likely is the same MSM7200 seen in other of the Taiwanese firm's units. This processor has been clocked at 528MHz. While the Espresso's screen size has not been mentioned, the 320 X 480 resolution matches the Hero. Yes, trying to be a Hero usually is a positive thing. In this case, we are actually adding something to the equation. If the Espresso does come to market in the form we expect, it would be HTC's second side sliding Android phone following the G1.
