Re: So yeah now HTC admits the 30fps limit is software because of the HDMI port.

It seems the the majority of the discontent with the 30FPS cap yields from the gamer-inclined crowd. Understandable. I game too.

And why the comparison between Hero and EVO? HTC has acknowledged a correlation between the HDMI capability (of which the Hero does not have) and FPS cap on the EVO. Many act as if something was taken from them. I assume everyone who owns an EVO bought one under the impression that you knew what to expect, as stated, when you bought it. HTC nor Sprint never mentioned anything about a FPS sacrifice in order to deliver HDMI... and no one cared till someone want to play Call of Duty 4 on their EVO and wondered why it didn't look as good as a dedicated gaming console...

Maybe... just maybe we have spoiled ourselves with the resources/ability to over-tweak & push our devices beyond their stated expectations. We have done so for so long now that some no longer accept a handset release as-is without wondering why can it not do more and why our "innovations" were not implemented upon release.

You do remember that this is a phone, right? As long as there is a Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Telus, or Bell Mobility logo on it, it will always be a phone first. I am thankful just to have the ability to find, load & play simple games for keeping myself amused while the oil is changed in my car.

There is a reason I have a 360, PS3 and Wii...
