Hi All,

Its my first post over here, I've been lurking all the while  tongue.gif  (sorry~!)

But it seems that there are a few questions which I wanted to ask, was already asked by someone else. Unfortunately, it wasn't replied by anyone  cry.gif  Therefore, I have to register and put myself into scene.

Just to recap:
Are all SiS shipped Touch HD units supplied with SanDisk 8GB microSD? Or could it be other brands such as Transcend etc?

My own personal question:
Touch HD is really really nice, but its a bit wee expensive. What makes it so expensive as compared to other sets? (Especially the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, which is very much cheaper but also with the same specifications - GPS, Wifi, Touchscreen, everything!)

Thx all! thumbup.gif
*
lol memory card m not so sure

secondly touch HD is expensive because:

1. it is a windows mobile phone (the software itself costs more than symbian)- makes it a PDA (Pocket PC) not a smartphone
2. the screen resolution and size is different (5800 is QVGA 3.2in) whilst (HD is WVGA 3.8in)
3. comes with more RAM so u can have more stuff open without worrying it close accidentally
4. Touch HD has a 5MegaPixel camera
5. it has the ability to create word documents and excel spreadsheets
6. Dedicated Youtube application

these are just some perhaps others can add more icon_rolleyes.gif

Wow! Thanks for the fast reply.

1. How much roughly does windows mobile cost?
2. What is the difference between a PDA (Pocket PC) and a smartphone?
3. QVGA and WVGA that much big difference? (Anyway I still like HD's MASSIVE screen!)
4. It has a 5MegaPixel camera, but no flash, which, doesn't make much difference? (especially at night)
5. Probably some third party applications are able to edit documents as well?
6. Youtube (Symbian is now able to support flash doesn't it? So its almost the same?

Do mobile phones hardware cost very expensive? (RAM, graphics, etc) If so, maybe that's why the HD is way much more expensive as compared to other phones. Still wondering why the HD cost almost 3X of Nokia's 5800! rclxub.gif

Any HD users here regretted spending so much on this gadget?  hmm.gif
*
1. no idea but I think the licensing is quite a bit more
2. Pocket PC are supposed be "substitutes" for laptops, smartphones merely complement usage with a laptop
3. yes QVGA is 1/4 the resolution of WVGA meaning if u view a webpage on both phones u can see more of it
5. yes but u either have to ahem or buy the license, HD already comes with it out of the box
6. yes but the dedicated youtube application is similar to the one of the iphone/ipod touch way more user friendly

well yes bro the quality of HD is a lot better compared to 5800...

I've read on LYN some users of 5800 have found cracks rclxub.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

sorry for this late reply was busy

Still am waiting for tv out cable for HD.. Watching movies on the go is superb on HD.. however, if I can travel with movies inside my HD and a TV out cable, i can watch movies on TV in any of the hotels I travel or anyplace that have tv. I travel a lot. hopefully TV out cable for HD will be available soon.

the cable is the same one as for the Touch Pro right?

last 2 weeks i asked Baronic about his recommendation for my 1st PDA phone that im going to buy. he recommends me htc tytn II because my budget is rm2.2k. last week i went to Queensbay Penang (my 1st time too) and found this HTC shop at the 3rd floor. quickly went there and leaved my gf alone to take a look at htc tytn2. but then i look at htc touch hd and i think this is the best pda phone i could get. i dont care about the price anymore then i withdrawn my money just to get my 1st pda phone. after 8 days using it, i could tell u that htc touch hd is worth for its cost. proud to be htc touch hd owner !!

I already read o that page, but it didn't write support up to how many GB and internal memory storage, just written the ROM & RAM only, pls notice it.

I heard that windows mobile 6.1 don't have garbage collector, when unnecessary data increased, will make the OS slow perform & become lagging, unlike Linux based OS which included a function garbage collector.


Added on February 6, 2009, 9:17 pm

Will the OS performs slow if you opened too many application? How big the memory card support? Can it record video with VGA 30fps just like Nokia N95? Coz i'm using Nokia N95, pls tell me more about this HTC Touch HD, thanx!
*
RAM is the internal memory currently can support up to 16gb

no it will not lag even if many app open, no it can't record vga video sweat.gif only max cif@30fps

Hi...my HTC Diamond ROM is 1.37.707.1 WWE

I wanna upgrade my ROM to the latest one...

But there is 2 version...

1) 1.93.707.1 WWE
2) 2.03.707.2 (which is the latest one on HTC website)

my questions are:

a) Do i need to install ROM 1.93.xx before i update it with the 2nd one 2.03.xx
b) Is it advisable to update it to 2.03.xx since it is quite new...afraid got problems
