if it ran like crap you had 30 days to return it, flat out. You complain all across these boards about the Touch yet you STILL use it?
So they should spend thousands if not hundreds of thousands of more dollars to produce drivers for you for nothing? Just like sprint should have spent the extra money to let evdo do voice/data simultaneously and every other corporate decision where the consumer thinks the company should do x or y costing them $$. guess what? It happens- all the time. And and MORE LIKELY here it was Qualcomm who was the source of the problem wanting money for the driver that HTC wouldnt pay insane extra $$ for to slightly enhance performance. So what now dont buy a Qualcomm chip phone? oh yeh too bad mostly all if not all EVDO phones are...

htc advertised the touch hadmsm 7x00 chipset, which has the integrated ati infineon graphics acceleration. I always wondered why my wizard and wing had smoother video playback with a significantly worse processor. You sir, are a victim of corporate BS. A corvette is advertised with a 6 liter v8 so you buy it, cause its got 400 horsepower. A month later you realized that not only you, but everyone's corvette is only running on 4 cylinders and effectivly 3 liters, crippling it to worse then a cobalt, when all the bits to make it fully functional are there. How is this situation any different? And a class action lawsuit would yield positive results. How can you argue quoted specs that are still being released (the msm 7200/7500 chipset in each of the current htc lineup) but are purposfully crippled so that later on "new" models that are slightly less uncrippled can be released.

PLEASE show me the HTC touch ad where 3d graphics or the chipset was advertised, post it up... HTC didnt advertise jack, you saw INTERNAL DOCUMENTATION from Qualcomm with the spec and just expected it to be enabled. It was never ever advertised by HTC or any carrier.
Dont insult other people since your analytical skills are lacking too. See the above point, there was never an advertisement of 3d capabilities outside of leaked internal documents on the chipset (which also say an 8mp camera, tv out, etc etc but none of those are enabled either. they are just theoretical maximums of the chip that CAN be added for more $$$), so there was never any expectation to be had at the time of purchase based on advertising. so that analogy is moot.
A class action would yield nothing positive except a fat check for the attorney and less progressive technology in out smartphones in the future. Class action is only good for the attorney running the show, and even further, there is no case which is why its been all talk so far and no attorney will take the case. Because its poor at best and you cant prove anything to a judge to win anything. i sure as heck wouldnt risk my reputation fighting HTC on it (or even worse Qualcomm) with little to no convincing facts of any fault on their part and no provable false advertising.
