manufacturers date 11/24/08. Raised capacitive pad still here, backlight on kb fully lit (except on the 1 key is kinda dim), side of screen still a bit insensitive, but better than my last touchpro.
Wonder when HTC will release a Pro that's built at least as well as their GSM-variant?

Hrm.... all of them? Including screen insensitivity around the borders? (You can open up notes, and try drawing a line to the borders with your thumb, if you aren't sure.)

It's not a matter of taking time to "juice up," it's that the device overheats, and turns OFF the charging circuit. Your phone simply heats up, shuts off charger, drains battery (quicker than normal,) then shuts off completely, cools, down, and resumes charging...

That's really great to hear. Perhaps the Pro will be a worthwhile phone eventually. Other people have had the same build-date as you, but had problems, so I don't think it's the actual build date we can go on. I wish we could figure out what plant made them...
