Thinking of getting this phone. Actually I prefer wildfire over this but of course, budget constraint.

I have a few concerns tho.

One is the screen, 2.8", is it really small?

Another one is, the internal memory, is it enough for apps?

smile.gif Yes, I felt the screen really small........the worst point
Regarding internal memory, actually I not confirm what the actual size of the ROM, using the system info and show total ROM of 184MB ( i not sure whether it include the OS)

but once it upgrade to 2.2, it can install into SD card, not the issue anymore

for the RAM, the level control by OS automatic, most of the time is 6x - 9x free RAM, this level is normal for many device. I dint feel lag

Is it really that small? What about other uses here, do you find it too small?

How about typing sms, how does it feel?

Btw, the layout of the pages of apps, can be changed right?

I like the layout on the HTC Wildfire tho.

Hows the screen quality compared to wildfire?

Yes, you can change the layout.........

Screen quality is much better than wildfire
3D performance is much better than wildfire

Can change it to slide down the list like wildfire instead of left and right?

Btw, how about the home screen, I really like the one on HTC wildfire. Possible to make it like that too?

Where the cheapest place to get it right now and how much?

So far the cheapest i've seen is on LYN here, for RM630. Anyone got it below RM630?

Btw, hows the availability of accessories for this phone like screen protector and case?
