Thought it doesn't have a keypad/keyboard?
It's pretty much a slim touch phone similar to the toshiba TG-01/HTC LEO.
touch keyboard and everything, I really like the white one right now

Q3 2006, they say...
some more info here : http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/09/hands-on-with-the-htc-hermes-t-mobile-mda-vario-ii/
the specs are nice, but I can't say I'm too fond of the Magician-esque buttons/layout. One of the main reasons I got the Wizard is that the buttons felt a lot more accessible and integrated, and have a larger area to push, than almost all competing products.
i like this design a lot. what i don't really like, is the pink color.
It's not actually pink - it looks pink because they had a pink light overhead. I don't know -why- they chose to take their pictures under that light, but it might be related to...
It's a T-Mobile branded version. That's why the UI is pink. Just don't get a T-Mobile one - or make sure to load a different Theme shortly after acquiring it
Ive seen it available on some sites but just to buy

I think that the pink is reflected light from somewhere.

Looks nice here, I like what they have done with the keyboard / numbers
I had one in my hands the other day at the tmobile shop the manager is pally with me and took one out of the box and it is A: a lot lighter
b: very fast on 3g
c:nicer keyboard layout easier on the eye
d:a horrible colour
eddieitman, u sure it was lighter? T-Mobile's website says it's heavier that the MDA (176g vs 160g).
Either way looks like there are enough improvements to warrant getting it, when it's time for my upgrade...
Anyone know if it has the same crappy stylus design that becomes loose after a few months?
well to me it felt lighter maybe just the way it feals in your hand as it is smoother.
I can confirm that the stylus is exactly the same as the vario
Doesnt look like a drastic improvement though, I mean, theres nothing on there that would make me shell out another couple of hundred quid to upgrade
I wonder if it wobbles around on a table top like the Wizard does?

i tested one of the prototypes a few months ago, an i was very pleased with the feel en touch of this one. for me it's worth upgrading when final version is here, but if i had to pay for it, i'm not sure if i'd buy it.
probarly i would, as a gadgetlover
It seems that the HTC Touch has a smaller screen than the Xperia, it that correct ?

If you are comparing with Touch Pro or Diamond, then yes TP/TD has a smaller screen than Xperia - TP has 2.8 where Xperia has 3.0 inches. Though the size is not that different, Xperia also displays a higher resolution.
That said, Touch HD has a wider screen than Xperia probably... (in non-landscape mode). But both touch HD and xperia have the same resolution.
I know a lot of people are drawn to the really small - light weight phones. Being I carry a purse and don't keep my gadgets in my pockets or belt, I prefer the feel of the heavy bulky phones. I tried the HTC 7500 advantage, but that was just overkill - sold it immediately almost and when the HTC Shift came out bought that. In the beginning it was going to be a phone too, but turned out that I just have an internet connection .. PERFECT FOR ME. I have it with me 75% of my [awake] life .. I thought the HTC Touch Pro was a nice size. I only wish that the screen size was more the size of the iphone.
I am 99% sure now that I will buy the Xperia tomorrow - Or today if the dealer gets back to me and they do, in fact, plan on shipping tomorrow. I am just PRAYING that there isn't another great phone around the corner waiting to be released .. there isn't, is there ?? I usually make all or most of my money back when buying and selling within the same month, but shipping eats away at my bank book. I am like a kid at Christmas. I want EVERYTHING tomorrow.

Besides Xperia and Touch Pro, the other phone that i'm really into is the Touch HD, but since you didnt like Omnia and the iPhone, you won't like it either
What is the Touch HD .. I tried finding it but had no luck .. Found this, but I don't know that is what you are talking about.

Thanks. Yeah, that is not for me. Gotta have the keypad, keyboard even better. I was excited about Blackberry coming out with a touchscreen, but if I remember correctly, no keypad or keyboard either.

Here you have a comparison of the most recent smartphones:

What do you guys think about this? Would you trade your nexus one for it?
http://www.mobilewhack.com/google-nexus-two-pictured/
Um.. unless it has a better processor, then.. I think I'm ok with my Nexus One.
Kinda ugly. I'll stick with my N1 for the time being. I can't see a phone topping it for a few months.
is that really what its gonna look like?! that looks like ****!
Until they release a flexi bendable phone with 1.5Ghz+ I'm not upgrading
yuck, that thing is hideous... personally i dont like the droid and i typically love physical keyboards over touch screen...

thats not going to happen for awhile
why cant they put dual snapdragons in one phone?!!?
Isn't that just an artist's rendering? I don't see any capacitive buttons. Not digging the look either, but the keyboard looks superior to the Droids.

like dual core or a pair of snapdragon processors?
dual core is coming within a year. a pair of the processors like the N1 has in one chassis would set the phone on fire and have terrible battery life.

Yeah it was just a theory...Engadget did a thing on it
this thing has been going around the web for like a year now. being called the google phone the tmobile this and the sprint that. Anyway i think its fugly. keeping my N1
if what you say is true, then i guess no one will consider upgrading coz the new phone looks total crap...
Oh god, not that thing again. It's not a Nexus Two.
And it mings.
Seriously all these phones with the keyboards and D-pad need to have the D-pad on the left, it just dont feel right on the right hand side lol
its like playin the playstation with the D-pad on the right hand side, just wouldnt feel right lol
i for one would appreciate a physical keyboard. but it better come with something else too. like more ram, a better processor, or a tilt screen.
Im good with my nexus, we haven't even begun to find out what are the capabilities of the nexus yet.
That's quite possibly the ugliest phone I've ever seen. Sticking with my N1.
that looks like a droid 2... yuck
Glad to see HTC finally acquired motorola's design team.
Well, trying to make things positive..
Maybe it is simply a mockup, and the final design will surely be different?..
Hi guys, I'm writing to you in order to get some advices/experiences. The old handy of my wife is slowly dying and it's time to think bout something new. I'm writing in this section because she is a Sony Ericsson lover and she grabs my HTC Desire whenever she can to play Angry Birds...
The point is that I don't have ANY experience on Sony Ericsson Android models...plus the few of them I could hold in my hand didn't really impressed me at all..actually..let's just say I didn't like them at all..
So..beacuse of our budget I first was thinking to get her a ZTE Blade, which seems worth its cost..but before moving on I would like to read some of your opinions: you that you own this X10...are you satisfied? Would you recomend it?
And last but not least: is it a tough phone? I mean..I know with tecnology you HAVE to take care...but my wife just can't do that: she really doesn't pay ANY attention to her "tecnological stuff" & she's SO MUCH in love with her present handy cause it survived any sort of torture you can put ur handy through!!
So..I could get the ZTE at his full price on eBay...or the X10 with a discount of around 200€ on a local shop...which one to choose?
Hope I didn't brake any forum rule with this..
Anybody there?

When i had my x10 it had a rubber case and it was pretty resilient, the stock screen protector on a new x10 saves the screen some damage but a touch screen phone in the same pocket as your keys is a bad idea.
The only hardware problem i can think of is the microusb port on the phone has a habit of coming loose (although i never had a problem with it)

Mind you the x10 has got a larger screen, in general feels like a more quality phone. You can pick up a cheap case (the rubber ones not silicone). The buttons on the front are subject to some wear and tear, should be fine if you don’t torture it
There was a guy from India ,he posted his phone which got under a BUS..screen cracked,buttons not working but voila he could make calls,half of the screen was working with touch...if you talk about build quality X10 indeed is on the strongest phone.
and with 2.3 X10 is as par with arc as i know women don't care about bravia display,exmor r crap and all..!!

Oh, women DO care, actually!!!
I was just watching a anime called "Health and Phys Ed for 30 Year Olds" and grabbed this screen shot. Think it's a X10? It's the first time I've noticed that they didn't have a flip phone, and there are few phones with only three keys on the face. (Other character have PSPs to play with).
Looks like it!
x8 maybe?
good find!

nha it's an x10
x8 is smaller
The X10 is very popular in Japan, so I think he deserves to perform in an anime
Oh thats definetly a X10. Lol good looking OP.

Yippie my phone's in an anime! But it looks a bit thicker though. Haha.
If you look at it carefully, it looks more like an X8 or mini, because there is no silver line on the side, and it seems as the back cover is covering the sides.

If you look good it's a x10 or x10 mini pro. Just can't see if you can slide it or not.

There is a grey line..... It's an anime is isn't going to be 100% the same, they could get sued over that
That is definitely an x10
