Makes you wonder, on Modaco you can see the size comparison and its almost exactly the same size as the iPhone. However, you know the HTC Touch HD
won't have 8GB or 16GB built-in or even a battery to compete... so what exactly is causing the bulk? I realize the screen needs a certain frame to contain it, but the depth? No hard drive and no SDHD slot but rather a microSD? I would never get the iPhone and the HTC HD just became my new girlfriend in about a year, but I guess this is the price you pay when one company makes the hardware and another the software.
Anyway, GSM by the end of the year in Europe and Asia. Hopefully, CDMA by Spring/Summer '09 in time for my Sprint upgrade. Also, you have to know by then if it's running WM 6.1 now that it will get WM 7 and possibly even Android. This isn't an iPhone killer -- the iPhone killed itself. Gee, let's all herald a device that came out with 3G and GPS in 2008 when I've had those on my device since 2006. Okay, fanboys, back in Justin Long's *** you go.
This thing looks sick. Having said that, I can't imagine they would ever come out with a Pro version with a QWERTY. Considering its dimensions now, and then with a keyboard, it would be a UMPC. Besides, with a screen this big you do everything virtual. No more hardware.
Rant over. Next poster please.
