We will just have to keep our ears open then!! I hope they do, as you saw on the root thread, I am looking for that wi-fi routing that NCX Designs mentioned!!

It will take awhile because HTC will need to work on 2.2 to get Sense working with it correctly.

Windows vs Android are two completely different animals

Android doesn't require "tweaking" to make things compatible with the OS after updates occur. As long as there aren't major changes to the UI that is.
if its new features and what not, that can be baked into a regular update like software updates are. almost like a patch on a game console like the Xbox 360

HTC will probably unveil a new version of Sense before they do anything major, like the leap from Manila 2.1 to Manila 2.5 in WinMo with the HD2 when it came out.

Was that in response to me?

Just because you can update a regular version of Android doesn't mean that it will mesh correctly with Sense UI.

Sense UI is just an "app" so to speak running on top of android
it can be disabled in the application settings, it doesn't need to be running to use the phone

i'll leave it at that, i don't feel like getting into an argument

Hey guys, doesn't matter what our opinions about sense are , you both know HTC is never in a hurry to update a vzw phone. Be nice ! !

No argument from me I just don't agree with you.

ok Back to tips and tricks, I'm a new Android User so I may post things some of you already know, but it was news to me so it may be to some..

: Long press on any widget on the home screen will allow you to move it.(I know..that one is simple but it leads to the next one)
: While holding your widget, you can then use the optical pad to change pages and drop that widget on a page that has space.
: Long press on the HOME key will bring up the list of running programs.
: Long press of the SEARCH key brings up the voice search.

Good tips.

Only if I can convince my wife to take my Droid. She doesn't like the idea of another $30 for data though.
