You'd better read that spec sheet a little more carefully. It says that this new phone will have VGA color, not VGA resolution. Actual pixels on the display are spec'd as "TBD". So don't expect 640x480.

If they pump out another QVGA phone in 2008 I'll give up completely on them and get an unlocked phone for at&t.. I mean this is ridiculous.

Oh, this phone might be useful for international calling. The 7500A appears to have GSM/GPRS capability in it.

Wow, that's misleading. "VGA color", WTF is that? VGA can be grayscale, 64k colors, 262k colors, 16.7m colors... it's a resolution, not number of colors. Someone at HTC is a dummy if that's what they meant.

Or maybe it's all a hoax...

You need to read the wikipedia page then for VGA, it can mean color depth as well as a resolution, as well as many other things....

If that is true about the VGA.. why do they insist on screwing us out of 1999 technology?

so well have to buy the successor which will be exactly the same with 10 more mb or ram?

The Wikipedia article listing VGA specs was mainly historical, what the original VGA specs were when IBM introduced it in 1987.
Nobody uses "VGA" to describe number of colors anymore, if they ever did.

Since its not the Titan, the convo should stay in the linked thread. I hope GSM users (like me) get the Xperia first though
