Re: HTC bringing VGA displays to sprint: Raphnel and Diamond
HTC keeps doing more and more to customize and improve the windows mobile UI. If MS could spend a little time making things look and work as well as HTC's add ons, we'd be at a lot better starting place. WM7 had better be awesome.
Now the only question is how do I justify buying one of these when I would have to pay full retail price? Probably will just stick with my Titan for a while. Hopefully we'll see some of this stuff ripped out of the Raphael/Diamond and running on current devices like we did with all of the Touch applications. [Edit: I just realized this is probably not going to be as easy as it was for the Touch. All the graphics would have to be resized, and we might not be able to render the 3d effects as well (are these supposed to have any graphics acceleration, better processor, etc? Anybody know what chipset is being used?). Oh well, maybe we'll see something come out of it]
A lot of these screens remind of the Manila stuff that was floating around for awhile. Did that ever make it to a production device, or was it perhaps early versions of what we are seeing now? That would explain why those Manila apps were VGA.
