I think matty has one.

hi mate got the htc hero very similar to this one .depends what you want from your phone personally i think its a really good phone for internet and stuff though i just brows from home as i havent paid for the internet but works fine on wi-fi good clear screen and has apps like the i phone my son has i phone but thinks this is a cool phone but he says it lags a bit but think that means it doesnt do every thing at a million miles an hour .

thanks for the info bud,

HTC Hero = Android
HTC HD2 = Windows Mobile 6.5

How are they similar? Some people don't half talk bollox!!

do tell me more, all new to me this type of phone.

Ill give ye an overview of my thoughts and opinions with regards the HD2 and WinMo in general later on bud, im just about to make me tea lol. I don't actually own the HD2, I seriously looked into it (along with the Palm Pre, but o2 don't want anyone to have that), but the lack of a keyboard was a downer for me, I ended up with the Touch Pro 2, which runs the exact same software (WinMo 6.5 and HTC Sense), but has a real keyboard and a resistive tiltscreen. HTC Sense is an absolute dream interface, and WinMo 6.5 is solid as a rock, but there is some pitfalls which need explaining in detail.

Other than that, the HD2 has the advantage of a better CPU, more RAM, and is the first WinMo device with a capacitive screen which HTC had to work very hard with Microsoft to get it working correctly as WinMo does not support capacative screens natively (personally, I think they should have stayed with resistive as my TP2 responds just as sensitively as a capacitive but with the obvious accuracy advantage of resistive, even though it doesnt have multi-touch, it has a zoom bar instead, which many people say is better than pinch to zoom).



Will get back to you on this mate.

check if the hd2 has has the blue tooth sorted as the hero still hasnt had the up grade to let it connect to other phones i only found out about this after trying to connect to my computer

sorry jase i am no expert on these phones didnt realise there where different operating systems probably not worth comparing the two phones

no worrys lansyp.


Thanks matt appreciated bud.
