Erm... WOW!

aGPS though... No thanks.

I wonder which networks will pick up this.


aGPS is ok surely? It just uses the cell network/a server to receive satellite location info and therefore acheive a fix more quickly.

Or am I wrong?

Oh....yes....baby.... :)

I love my Hermes, Windows Mobile Pro is the best as far as I'm concerned but unfortunately, HTC can't design for s*** and they wouldn't know a decent CCD if it came and bit them on their collective asses!

I'm thinking it'll be just about the right time for me to upgrade too :-D

Good Bye HTC - Hello Sony Ericsson (or Samsung i900).

If HTC listened to its users 8000 of us might have stayed faithful, but now we have (or will have) options.

This Sony is like Phone Porn - its gorgeous. I want i want.

:) :D :D Anyone checked out the video on the SE website? The panel concept looks well funky, and it seems pretty compact too. Difficult to judge though really!

Looks freaking awesome.

check out the product home page too

HTC have served me well for about 6 years...but SE looks like they have really pushed the envelope.

What do you mean £500 + REGION ? I don't understand.

I reckon in the UK, handset only (i.e. without SIM and contract) it will be about £450-500

Likely to be in Vario III price band's i'd guess.

If you look carefully on the video, you can *just* see one WinMo panel ;p

Yep - here's hoping that SE retain their traditionally high build quality standard with HTC's efforts :)

  • Interests:The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

The device is, indeed, HTC made.

http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wond...d-htc-makes-it/

Why do HTC not make such swanky devices for THEMSELVES!!! Argh!

What are the chances they will release an "own brand" version of this?
