I have to wonder what causes these "freeze ups". spb mobile shell was the only thing to make my phone act up. But anyways, good luck with your new toy.

Did you see this........Seems that the HTC Hero has been shipped with an error that shows that the device cannot connect to EV-DO Rev. A. This is an error that HTC will be addressing soon with an update.

I came from the 800w (my first WM phone), and thought soft resets were just a part of life. I mean, at least once or twice a day I was soft resetting that damn phone...and I had nothing installed on it...completely stock.

This thread got me thinking...I've not had a freeze up the entire time I've owned this phone (1 month running)! To be honest, I've used this forum alot to trick my phone out. I bet I have 10 to 15 things installed to make this phone look awesome...still no lock ups or freezes.

I almost hate to post this for fear of jinxing this very stable device!

**On a side note, the wife is ordering the Hero on Thursday so it will arrive before the weekend** Looks like I'll have to learn a little about Android so I can walk her through it.

9 years with Sprint, and we finally have awesome phones! Gotta love the direction Sprint is headed...

I had to comment on this^... I agree 100%. I have been with Sprint for 11 years, through all the crappy service and mediocre phones. They finally have a phone selection (with more to come) that basically beats out the other big US carriers. HTC/Android/Touch screen phones are going to really help their numbers. My only gripe is their inconsistent customer service. While it IS better than 5 or 10 years ago, I still deal with reps who don't know anything, and can hang up/call right back and get the problem solved. They could do a little better with long-term loyal customer pricing as well.

I read somewhere (I think it was on the Sprint community boards) that the phone is Rev. A capable but has a display bug that indicates Rev. 0. Can't find it though.

All this business about WinMo being so laggy compared to other phones has me a little confused. I own a Diamond, Pre, and an iPhone 3G, and my wife has a TP2. Every device I own lags at some point or another, not just WinMo. Have fun with your Hero anyways, I was a little bored with it myself. However, I'm sure I'll get one eventually so that I can complete my collection of phones with the various operating systems...

I played with one in the store and was not at all impressed. Seemed too slow, and I really need the keyboard. Yes it is a nice phone, and I would carry it as a second/toy, but not my main phone. Good luck
