man i hope the desire z and dhd goes to maxis..

wanna get it with contract so its cheaper

what if 1 year later there is another phone u really like... what u gonna do wt ur contract?

Sign again... LOL

Im on a desire z. Hehe. Really nice. Even better than i tot. But the trackpad seems a bit unresponsive, any desire z or g2 users having the same problem?

where u got yours from?? how much??

Spring doesn't last for too long.

and DZ is using another mechanism, it's a Z-hinge. not slide but more like 'lift and drop' type. and no locking mechanism. Go check out some youtube videos on DZ.

The phone is really slim if compare to most slide-out big screen QWERTY keyboard phones. And it feels really solid when hold, no cheap plastic feel.

I use the touchscreen more often than I do the trackpad.

the trackpad works when u need to 'micro-select' something.

trackpad is there for reason, mostly for web browsing to scroll up and down web page. other than that, just use ur finger

If depends on the situation and what's being displayed on the screen. If there's a button on the screen, it's much faster to just touch it rather than scroll to it with a D-pad or trackpad.

The only times I've found the trackpad on my Hero useful is when selecting text. But that doesn't happen and I can usually select text too by touching the screen except when the text is very small.

that's why I said "accurate"...

you post pictures like we've never seen it before. It's the Desire Z thread, we've had multiple pictures posted already, no need to spam.
Also, the one you posted is the G2

Yup, but you didn't say in which situations it would be more accurate or helpful. Also one of the main disadvantages on a screen full with buttons is that it's slower because you have to scroll to the button you want. In such a situation a simple touch on the touchscreen would be more faster and accurate because it's direct.

well yeah, I meant spam as in posted so many pictures.

got it from Madman. with receipt and all la.. now sellin it for desire HD. guess i cant live without 4.3 inc screen

True i seldom use the trackpad, in fact hardly use at all. overall user experience is fantastic on desire z. i feel unique just by using it. hahaha.

the new HTC Sense has brought android UI to a whole new level, especially on web browsing and multitasking!

now i dont have to press menu->windows to jump from one page to another, and no more long press home button ! hehe

lol yay
