lol I know, I have xp all around me, the only thing I can do is hijack my girlfriends vista machine so I can use chevron and get my reg edit on.

Both of my pcs at home are XP(SP3) so I would like to know if you tried it on XP? And if so what did you do. I have tried every hack out there and that I can think of, and Chevron Unlocker still gives my the "Uh Oh" error. Im still hopeful as I have seen some XP users (just about 3 lol) where able to successfully unlock with Chevron on XP.

simply amazing....!!!! Got it up and running fully on my HD2 (my activation code will be stashed at my safe for future use)

I have used it for 1.5 days as my daily driver and let me tell ya... as a former HD7 owner (miss it...) it behaves 100% identically to native WP7 devices when it comes to smoothness, and battery life

Only issues i would like to be addressed before its perfect

-back speaker sound is pretty bad... lower volume makes it tolerable
-multitouch issues... its buggy and irresponsive sometimes

... thats it

speed (lag) as well. The hd7 was laggy in some areas, but the hd2 out lags hd7
also the hd2 has dual touch but multitouch, yeah not gonna happen...but otherwise it is a good (almost beta)
despite surprisingly the dvp with all of its problems is very smooth and a great exp

I really don't see the lags you guys are talking about..i've been running it on 2 phones since the 12th and neither one has had any bit of lag yet.

you'll see it
the performance is a bit slower than an actual wp7

its way past beta. its good enough for daily use... as i said, besides the speaker and "dual touch" issues, IMO its a amlost perfect port
