Iphone 3GS : 4.50 x 2.40 x 0.48 (115.5 x 62.1 x 12.3 mm) Cc=88.2
HTC HD2 : 4.76 x 2.64 x 0.43 (121.0 x 67.0 x 11.0 mm) Cc=89.2

How much difference is that?

HD2 is also lighter than the Touch Pro 2.
157.0 g vs 178.5g

yupe, my point was if someone can carry something as heavy as the tp2 in the pocket, this one is considered fine.

price MIGHT be less than 3k.

nope

ya, i'm wondering about that.
we should be subject to GST.
but i not sure how much is that? 5,10,15%

there is NO secondary camera, hence NO video call.

i have a n-series phone and i install opera mini on my phone.
even htc set opera mini as default browser instead of IE.

only skyfire can support full flash so far (for mobiles)

haha, good joke.

stand in front of the mirror, then point camera at ur reflection in the mirror while looking at ur own screen during the call. tad..

the news i read online is around 2.7k

550euro http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_hd2_now_shippi...o-news-1231.php
25900twd http://www.pcworld.com/article/181380/htc_...urope_asia.html

maybe the person just quoting the price of tp2, guessing that hd2 night not be more expensive than that.
anyway, if its more than 3k, i'd settle for the omnia2 instead, has its own advantage over hd2 also.

the tp2 launch price was around 3.2k, no doubt it has dropped since then.

the hd2 and omnia2 have different advantages:

hd2
-4.3inch capacitive multitouch screen
-1ghz snap dragon, more ram
-'nicer' sense UI

omnia2
- vibrant AMOLED screen
- better battery life (bcos bigger battery and enery saving oled)
- cheaper.

some might think the capacitive screen is great and really it is, but when sometimes you (unfortunately) have to use winmo interface which has not been skinned by HTC, interface will have small and near button, checkbox,list,etc. good luck touching that with your fat finger on a capacitive screen.

and of course you can use multitouch to zoom that window to make the buttons bigger, but that means u perform more finger actions to do the same thing that can be done if compared to resistive screen and stylus.

major parts of the interface are bigger, but there are still minor areas.
not a big problem most of the time, but of course u'd wish it could be better.

eg : watch the 'movie' at 27:40. the drop down list, he selected wrong the first time.

well, installing and using files from a developer forum would get lots of different reaction, depending on how much of a techie you are. not everyone is comfortable with it or would bother.

some ppl just hate winmo cos nth much has changed for a very long time, even wm6.5 is mostly just reskinning.
the main apps like calendar, media player are still old and not the best apps which you can use for touch compared to today's standards.

android 2.0 is getting a lot of attention because it is new and it's been backed by google, who provides most of our internet content nowdays.
the only reason i'm still rooting for winmo is because i wanna use my garmin mxt.

the hd2 launch price should be 500pounds.
