i think we need to start a petition.
this is why every other phone appears smoother than ours!
for whatever reason it is currently no winmo capacitive phones!

Wow that is awesome. Probably expensive though, especially due to it being made by nvidia.

Some Mobile Provider is gonna eat a big loss if they want to carry, and actually get people to buy it... looks like a couple thousand dollar device there...

HTC is going to put out a WM6.5 device that uses the Nvidia chip. Not sure that it has a capacitive screen or not though.

i doubt it will happen, at least right now. because wm6.5 is still designed for resistive only, too many small spots to tap for capacitive. im hoping wm7 will change that

The better processor is the only good thing I see about this device honestly. I don't wanna be cynical or anything, but touch-screen only devices aren't my thing. I gotta have a button or two on the thing

.

Put one of those nvidia chips in the next winmo device, and I'll be really, REALLY happy. Too bad my wallet won't be though >_>
