perhaps you guys should wait for HTC HD2 Android.  rolleyes.gif

In an interview, HTC CEO Peter Chou effectively ruled out this possibility by saying "Technically, we could make the HD2 an Android phone, but I have to take care of Windows Mobile". Chou also admit that Windows Mobile innovation has been slowing down and the interest for it is waning as more users are switching camps to Android.

u mean the HTC Dragon? anyway, WM is different compared to Android. depends on users' needs.

Impressive specs but if above 3k i think its pricey, if below 3k then i think its worth it...one think it falls short on is the lack of a front camera...i find it quite useful actually
*
might be less than 3k considering how the price of PDAs are dropping, Omnia II @ 2299, TD2 @ 2299 HD @ 2399 etc etc... If it is really gonna hit Malaysia this month, then we are gonna know how much does it cost real soon. fingers crossed

you can take Touch HD price when it was 1st launched .. it was 3.3k if i'm not mistaken and i'm sure Touch HD2 will do the same
*
Yup i know it was RM 3288 when HD 1st launched, but PDAs nowadays are getting cheaper and cheaper, Touch Cruise was 2799 when it was launched but Diamond 2 was 2599 initial price. anyway it is just my hope and wish that it would be lower than 3k. wait till the price is announced then tongue.gif

if tomoro only launch why some people already have it on hand liao?

the official launch date is tomorrow for Tai Pei, 11th of Nov for Europe, South East Asia = no news. Also CEO of HTC Peter Chow will be having a press con on the launching of HD2 tomorrow, so lets see what he has to say about this.

i guess those people are somewhat related to HTC or they are handheld experts which would get a few sets of prototype and test it out before the official launch date. Even PDA Expert had 2 sets of Touch Pro before its official launch date in Malaysia during that time. there are currently no HD2 on sale worldwide yet, only pre-orders.

hey, did anyone of you guys brought handphones from overseas? (i.e. UK)
if yes, can you name me a few trustworthy ones.
i would like to purchase it from overseas or UK to be more specific, coz' it is so much cheaper . its like US$350, any suggestions for buying phones from overseas? state me the pros and cons & experiences ,if any.
*
It is no where near 350 USD for a HD2, at least 499 POUNDS. i hope you think twice before u buy. I posted once before that i was confused whether to buy an imported or local phone but after hearing it is coming soon i think i will wait for it to launch here, 499 pounds after converting it is 2800+ ringgit, just hope that it is lesser than 3k over here. the other most important thing that came into my mind was the warranty. 350 US dollers is impossible mate.

huh? they give more freebies or more discounts during PC fair.. i was a staff from PDA expert so i know this..


Added on November 5, 2009, 11:28 pm[quote=hsyong,Nov 5 2009, 08:45 PM]Thanks.

Is there any special type of screen protector for capacitive screen? Will screen protector reduce the sensitivity to touch?
*

[/quote]

My fren is using an iPhone with a screen protector on it. but the screen sensitivity is really good.. a soft touch for full response.. i dun think that's an issue, but i will definately be using a screen protector


Added on November 5, 2009, 11:30 pm[quote=hsyong,Nov 5 2009, 06:31 PM]Now still using Dopod 838 Pro smile.gif

Have a few questions, hope someone can help out :

1. Is the HD2 screen scratch resistant?
2. Is there a task switcher/killer app for WinMo 6.5?  (using VBar now)
3. Can I install CAB or EXE directly from the PC or memory card like 838 Pro? Without going thru Market Place?

Thanks.

[/quote]

It is operating on Windows Mobile 6.5, so the apps are basically the same, so u can use whatever software u used on ur 838pro on the HD2, dun worry about this. tongue.gif


Added on November 5, 2009, 11:42 pmi see lots of people are getting this. i dunno, i'm just turned off by the size and battery. u guys shud check out Acer F1 as well. just the acer customer support....well, they're new. i'm for one am waiting for qwerty with snapdragon and at least 1500mah. give a killer proc with weak battery are u insane?

There have been news about the low battery capacity and the speed of the processor, and the outcome was this Snapdragon processor is much more efficient compared to the old Qualcom processor, and a review says that the battery bar only dropped a bit even though with wifi and internet browsing, but it all depends on usage. So far, reviews are saying that this processor wont cause too much of a problem with that small capacity battery.

@reddevil, not true about your reply to hsyong. 838pro QVGA. this is WVGA. u'll find a lot of incompatibility in terms of apps and games
*
hmmm.. true that but im referring to the apps according to the platform.. but we are able to download the same software of different resolution so i dun think that's a very big problem.. but indeed my previous post was quite misleading, neglected the resolution.. opps tongue.gif

One thing im frustrated about my Dopod 838Pro is that the touch dialpad lags like hell.. need to wait for the numbers to display after pressing  mad.gif

Wonder how is it with the newer models like HTC TP, TP2, HD, HD2 etc ... any such issue?
*
starting from TD, it doesnt have this issue, i dun think u have to worry about this issue on the HD2 coz of the processor's speed.

Any belt case/pouch can fit?
Any screen protector for the huge screen ?

there will definitely be pouches or cases to hold it.. dun have to worry about it i guess..
but still wondering whether the original pouch would come with it or not like the TD/TP/TD2
