Discover Windows Phone 7.5
The WindowsTM Phone 7.5 operating system is at once simple and sophisticated. The customizable home screen makes communication a snap: with the animated icon function, users can add photos of their favourite contacts to their home screen and phone, email or text them, or message them via social networks, with a single touch. And the People Hub brings all your contacts, messages and images together in one place to give you an overview of all your social interactions.


All dressed up
The elegant and ergonomically designed HTC RadarTM 4G sports a unibody, brushed aluminum shell, 3.8” screen and 1 GHz processor for fast and easy multimedia file sharing and Web browsing. In addition to its slim, compact form, the handset boasts another important design feature: high-quality, glossy, scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass.


The highly sensitive 5 MP camera has an f/2.2 lens that performs well in low-light conditions, LED flash and BSI sensor. Being optimized for low-light captures, the camera takes great pics at all times. It also features panorama mode, a wide range of settings (portrait, landscape, sport, etc.), and a Photo Enhancer function for photo editing.


The HTC RadarTM 4G is available starting at $99.95 with a 36-month economic inducement. For more information on the HTC RadarTM 4G and Videotron's other mobile devices, visit http://www.videotron.com/service/mobile/handsets
