Okay as a certified HTC addict myself I know where you are coming from. I was patiently awaiting the release of the Touch Hd, as the email HTC sent me promised. They then tried to disclaim that and firmly stated there will not be Touch HD in US ever. Irritated and disappointed I took the leap and got the closest thing I could find. I now have the Omnia i910 with Verizon. Pretty much kicks *** and I haven't had the problem of being slow. But you know that if Verizon can cripple something for more monetary gain they will and have on a couple things. Another site has a free fix for the tethering block and Verizon in cooperation with WinMo has agreed to provide firmware fix for GPS (date unknown though). Other than these so far that's all they screwed with. HTC promises they will come out with something comparable soon and when they do I may be interested, but unfortunatley for them by that time Samsung may have me hooked. We'll see. I would say go for it. With Verizon's Alltel merger hopefully things will start looking up. Because their cell coverage is unbeatable.

I know some may not have this opportunity, but I am a gadget freek and I get what I want, so trial and error is an option for me. If something else better comes out I'll switch again.

I am due for a new phone New n 2, looking for the largest screen with the smallest phone possible, don't need a keyboard, want flashlight capability, better speaker, the Omnia is looking and sounding pretty good...

But I GOT TO HAVE that KITCHEN. It is just too awesome to give it up. I am a recovering flash addict, but I want to jump off the wagon again.
