HTC Touch HD Pro leaked!!!!!

[PocketPcUser]

Nope.. If you take a look at the specs, it is really a huge waste of money IMO. You don't get any upgrades on RAM/ROM, and you don't get Wifi N, which for the life of me still can't understand why these new devices are still shipping and being made with the very old B/G standard.. Why not give us the upgrade?

Anyways, like I said above, it makes no sense that this device is not upgraded at all compared to TPro. Sure the display is a little larger, but it still removes the SSD apparently, and doesn't have a hardware keyboard, and also doesn't add any additional VRAM for which this device will most likely require to run at a decent speed. After all, you have a much larger screen, so why hasn't the RAM been boosted??

Just watch the market HTC, don't do anything else. Support existing devices, and wait some time before making a new device. You could always spend all of your time on TouchFlo 4D, if it were even possible. I'd love to see you try at that.. BUT don't re-invent the wheel, when the TPro is a fabulous looking device, with a great screen and feature-set.
This HD device still hasn't swayed me from TPro, even if HD came out before TPro, I would still wait for the Pro.

A hardware keyboard makes phones absurdly huge (do you really want to get back to the days of carrying a brick that badly), ANY phone always "needs" more ram, rom, speed, etc so that is a pointless complaint. The HD runs wonderfully (WAY better than the Diamond and the Pro). The vast majority of people don't even have a WiFi connection, let alone an N connection. The vast majority of hotspots are B/G and why the frack would you be using your phone to surf the web at home??!! Not to mention the fact that with a 3G connection you should be getting close to the same surfing speeds as you would over WiFi. The TPro sucks *** as a multimedia phone and is big enough to kill someone with. The HD is the same or better in every way than the Pro and it has the best screen on any PPC.

If you want a POS brick, with piss poor battery, crappy buttons, and something that gets burning hot, buy the Pro, if you want a multimedia phone, save your money and get one of the next gen phones. The HD (or similar HTC device) or a phone based on the Tegra platform is going to be the phone of the future.

I beleive we will see gen 2 ...here in the states. Sometime mid 2009. I expect to see an unlocked version coming directly from HTC and a CDMA version subsidised by the usual suspects.

(or vice versa)...I may be wrong, but my guess is that HTC didn't think the US demand for the HD would be worth all the time and money required for a launch in the US...

R u kidding me? Sprint beats the hell out of Verizon. Come to VZW for a while & then u can c what it's like to finally get a device when it'scompletely obsolete. VZW is usually 1 year behind Sprint.

I started a thread titled HTC Touch HD - Join My Crusade!!! I would love it if

That is a great news. But like HTC said, By the time it comes to the U.S., It would not be new anymore. I will not wait for that and I will believe it when it's here. treybeno started this thread long before U started urs. So we will end it here.

Ya'll take this stuff too personal. I was just passing on info that I had received that may shed some light on the obviously unanswered questions of "if & when". That is why I took the time to reference all those quotes, so each one would get notification that there was a response to their post & they could see new info.

As for me mentioning my thread, if u paid attention to the quote with it u would see that I was responding to 2 posts about needing a place to discuss the HD without cluttering the Pro thread. I was just offering an unofficial place for people to talk. I mean I have nothing to gain by trying to take people from his thread. I thought I was helping everyone, including those complaining. Obviously some of you geeks are not going to be happy with anything I say. Is it possible for ya'll to just sit back & say OK well I knew that, but maybe she helped someone that didn't. Or I'm sure she didn't intend to step on anyones toes. I thought the point was to help each other and share info. Not knock each other down and be snippy.

WHatchu talking about? seems Like ur the one taking it too personal. It very simple what I said. We started the thread here and we will end it here. What is there to explain on that? Other HD thread was merge in here if U don't know. So thanks for the info that U gave. And do not expect that everybody will believe that.
AFAIK, the only HD thread that ever survive until now is this thread. U should be pissed at TP thread like "TP is coming" "I ordered TP" "They Shipped the TP" " I got the TP today" "Unboxing the TP" Threads. They are the ones cluttering the Forums.

Although I understand both of you, let's just shake hands, and say sorry. Shall we?

Anyways, I agree, that other thread is getting to be a little (shall we even say it's getting largely) redundant.

I'm gonna take a suggestion from the comment above and say that maybe I did jump the gun on you. Some people have talked junk, not because they are interested in what we are discussing, but just to run their mouths. Obviously that is not what you intended. Everybody is entitled to their opinion and I respect your. Thanks

I apologize If U sounded rude or whatever. It is not my intension. if U read our discussion here, everyone is giving their input and all point are considered.
I appreciate the info that U gave. it is really great and I hope it is true. If U read my post that U quoted, I always say not to wait for the HD. it is because it is really disappointing to wait then find out that it is not coming. That is why I said that I will believe it when it's here already.
About the thread, Well I guess it does not really matter which thread we discuss the issue. We all have the same intensions. We all want the HD. In the end, we will all be happy if it comes and sad if it doesn't. We are all together on this And discussing about this phone is really exciting. Where ever whe discuss the phone is not really important. The info the we share is. Thanks
