Re: OpenGL Driver
 

They signed the contract last year, and nVidia will make a new processor every year

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

I looked up the specs of the Superstar........Pretty nice but if the rumors are true the X2 would MURDER it. :)

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Thats if the rumors are true.....and also I would never get a Sony PPC, I'll stick with my PS3 for now ;)

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

LOL. Sony makes some durable and really advanced products, as seen in the PS3 so a PPC by them cant be too bad.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

you can't top it. haha.

yeah, that's true.
it can't be tooo bad.
:D:D

But I hated the first xperia. lol. so I don't know if I'll like the pro. lol.
Although I was looking at it and was pondering waiting for it. haha

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

all this talk about the new phones, and we dont even know what they look like yet! (Or am i wrong and missing something? :P)
The Superstars specs are from the leaked list of 2009 phones right? If so, wouldnt the Thoth be pretty badass? 1 GHz cpu and a 4.8 inch screen? *drools* Imagine the possibilites with that!

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Ehh....it's more like a smaller netbook, not like a PPC

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

ah ok thanks for clearing that up for me. Is it also true about the TP2 being slower then the TP?
Im on bell and since bells getting a GSM network soon i was going to upgrade to a TP2... now im not so sure...

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

well the processor is an older model.
I read somewhere that it could still be more powerful due to the driver upgrades and blah blah blah more and more technical things.
but with Nfsfan's rom, the TP is better. :D

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Well i would love to get a TP but by the time I can afford to payoff my contract, or my contract expires, newer phones will be available on bell, which is why i was looking to the TP2. Maybe if bell ends up with the GSM we will get the Superstar or one of the other great phones that are coming. *Fingers Crossed!*

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

If Bell gets GSM you can get any phone in the world, as long as it's GSM...

But see from what NFSFAN says TP and Tpro2 have the same processor 75001a, but from a spec sheet for HTC...it shows the tPro2 CDMA with a 7601a Processor

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

how can that be?
maybe it's his bell carrier that has done that to the tp2....

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

That maybe true, if they are going to GSM...the processors are 7201a, just like tPro, but CMDA is different, tPro is 7501a, while tPro2 will be 7601a (it's unconfirmed by HTC, they won't comment on the leaked spec shot)

Also, I will tell the honest truth, no device is worth buying today or anytime unless you are guaranteed a WM7 upgrade for that device...the reason being I'm holding out for SuperStar

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

you are guaranteed that wm7 upgrade with the TP2.
it was everywhere on the net a while back.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Then where is it then Cody? You show me the proof, cause right now all directions point to only 3 devices that are coming out this year to being WM7 capable:

1. HTC SuperStar
2. HTC Star
3. HTC Thoth

Please note that all 3 of these are the 3 coming with 6.5 stock this year

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

I told you earlier broseph,
it was in all of the mobile conference videos of the preview of TP2,
where the unveiling of the TP2 was.
they said it will have the 6.5 upgrade (as it will be shipped with 6.1, but now that 6.5 is complete, I wouldnt be surprised if it comes with 6.5 instead) and then they went on to say that it was verified by microsoft that the tp2 will get the wm7 upgrade.
I'll have to see if I can find that video or some other kind of info for you later.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

The X2 gets WM7 =D

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Ok I want to see this video Cody (and I do remember you saying that)

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

I would like to have the Touch HD. But it probably won't be CDMA.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

lol, I dont' feel like searching for the video anymore.
there were like 40 copies of the mobile world conference tp2 release that would pop up whenever I searched with anything that would even be the remotely-est related to the TP2.
now I can't even find one.
what gives.
edit: okay I found some versions of the video now,
but they're all the short ones. :/
I had the extended one saved in my book marks, it was 45 minutes long,
but it was deleted by the user,
and I can only find 15 minute ones. :/

eh, I was looking at that a while back,
but no thanks.
I'm waiting for a year to see what will be out.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

White or Firestone is suppose to be dual cdma and gsm

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

How is that going to work?

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

With a "Global ready card" at least thats what I think its called.....Its basically a sim card and makes the phone GSM out of the states.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

I presume that they jsut have a slot for the sim card,
and are compatible with both the gsm frequencies along with cdma frequencies.
I just wonder if they're going to be a pain to unlock like some gsm phones can be.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

I don't get why we don't all just use one type of data. I guess it's money for them... it would be so much easier for the consumer if they all had the same type. But since when do corporations care about us anyways? *sigh* I mean... they each have their benefits, but come on! Combine the good parts, drop the bad! (and what did I head about a TDMA service or something similar that verizon's supposed to switch to?)

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

ugh, I seriously need to get out of my contract.
I don't want to get verizon. ahhhh!
Dangit alltel,
why'd you sell out. lol.

But I'm gonna have to research that Tdma.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

ill just be happy as long as the GSM network comes soon with Bell because right now, they have NO phones at all... theyve got the Touch, Diamond and TP.
Whereas rogers has all the android devices, and unless bell gets GSM soon, Rogers will nab all the new HTC phones as well.:(

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Andrew your not looking at the big picture, you can buy the phones out of Europe before they even think about coming here and use them with GSM.....that's the only reason why I want AT&T or T-Mob

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

haha. that sucks.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

i know you can buy phones from overseas but for me that is unfortuneately not an option as i cannot afford to buy a phone online and then get a plan for it. ive also got 2 more years on my vogue contract. which is another reason why im closely following bells gsm news, for my next phone. believe me if i could buy a newer phone i would, not to say im not happy with all you guys have done for the vogue. :)

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

lol, that would be nice though.
I would have been able to get the TP2 no problem then....
would have been heck of a lot cheaper too.
grrr at cdma.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

lol f*ck the tpro2, I would be getting the Firestone or Whitestone as soon as it came out...the GSM side of the devices is much better anyways CDMA is horrible for developing and updates

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

because so many places use GSM, more wrinkles are worked out more often (horrible english I know but eh **** it, I am tired). CDMA though is a much better technology though. From what I understand, msot of the GSM 4G technologies being proposed are pretty much related to CDMA.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

haha, yeah, forgot about the tp2 ****tyness.
but all I have to say is **** the firestone or whitestone.
afterall, wasn't firestone the tire that kept bursting into flames a few years back? why would you want a phone that is named after something like that? it's like asking for a device that will burn down your house. haha.
I predict it now, the device is going to cause tons of houses to burn down out of no where. hahahhahaha

yeah, that's what I've gathered from TONS of research on the subject.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Pfft....I barely notice any difference between EVDO and EVDO Rev. A, so what 3G and 4G that big of a difference? I mean what 1 mb more?

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

that's why it's really considered more of 3.5g instead of 4g.
atleast by the hardcore techies that work with that stuff and develop the different gens.

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Yeah, a true 4G technology must be capable of having a maximum 1Gb speed, capable only, not that the network has to implement it. the rest are 3.5G (similar to the 2.5G stuff that was out before true 3G came about).

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

Well SPrint is suppose to be bringing out the first true 4G

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

I love this thread.
I see that there are new posts and I check it cause I think there might be news about OpenGL and every time I check there is a diff topic being kicked around. lol
This has to be the best thread of the year! Forget the cage.
So I ask with hope, OpenGL!?
PornRom!?
Anybody!?

Re: OpenGL Driver
 

doubt it haha.
:D:p:D:p

haha, yeah, what about that pornrom? lmfao.
and there was news of open gl a lil bit back.
I think whosdaman posted it.
said something about Nfsfan saying the wrapper is done but has kinks in it,
or something like that, not sure, check back a page or two.
