unfortunatly tru...it still is windows...but htc is doing incredible things with the today screen...i loved the original htc home...and now this is so much better...
hopefully there will be a cab soon to use this home screen on my touch.
Wrong section?
And im not impressed, i can youtube already on my phone, i would like if it had a rewind feature, i hate watching youtube and cant go back.
Its sad that from here on out every single phone will try to be like the iphone. Wouldnt that just make people want an iphone more? This has all been done before with this phone called Iphone® made by a company called Apple® you should check it out.... this Diamond Touch is nothing that hasnt been done before. "For peat sake" go out and buy an iphone! I am!

So the iPhone has done GPS, 3G, 3rd Party apps before has it
Yes I've played with my mates iPhone, it was nice, slick and I wont deny was a nice phone but come on your starting to sound like Steve with all those copyright logos
Lets be nice guys. All i was addressing was, how many phones came out ever since the iphone, that didnt remind you in some way of the iphone? This Diamond is nice and all. I just see a wannabee iphone. Not being mean just saying. So please, lets respect each others comments.

Lets be nice? Why come in here and make comments that you know will cause backlash if you are trying to be nice?
Actually, I think the iPhone took a lot from older HTC phones and put it in their own package.
awww get off his back
he said nothing offensive...nor did he put anyone or anything "down"....just stated his opinion...to which he is entitled....that said...I agree that the apple more or less tends to miss quite a bit of what a ppc can do....even after it goes 3g there will be much to be desired.....just my opinion

I understand what you are talking. In my opinion, Iphone also trying to be more like windows. Apple tried very hard to add Microsoft office into their phone. And they also start to open their app to 3rd party (windows had done it long time ago). I think that each phone is trying to add as much as ability they can to become the most powerful phone. It is hard to say which phone copy which phone.
i think we shouldnt start the old iphone discussion again, but:
The iphone was more innovative than any other phone. Appel was the first that realised that mobile Internet will be the future.
But i wont even buy a iphone, okay
But what the hell did htc with windows mobile, its unbelievable and great, so please hack that **** and make me cab or buy me a Diamond
oh i forgot, make some drivers for mit touchcruise too, because i cant wait 1 hour for reading a email

Holy crap! Apple invented mobile internet!!
IMO....
I don't think it wants to be an iPhone but an iPhone killer. Personally I (for the first time) skipped a generation and didn't get a Kaiser upgrade from my Hermes (AT&T branded) as it didn't seem as impressive as the upgrade from my Wizard to the Hermes... actually my Wizard from the Blue Angel was the most impressive jump, then I met Jose Faria ...
The HTC Raphael (Diamond with a keyboard) is definitely worth the wait I believe.
As for the iPhone, big deal. To me it's just an iPod that can phone home. The browser IS nice but that's about it. As a phone it sucks. Edge sucks. No DirectPush email sucks (so what that it'll be available in June or so they say) And the lack of a real keyboard.... SUCKS! Very few people I know are really happy with their iPhones, but then that's probably just the crowd I hang with...
Just my two cents ...

simply no
their have been a handful of phones that try to imitate iphone... but the majority that dont far outway the majority that do...
simply put i think users want to imitate the iphone more so than the companies
Personally I believe discussing which phone is best, without specifying your needs, is pointless because it's all due to perspective. However, as far as "comapny's and people trying to imitate." Thank god they are! That's the type of competitive marketing that brings new ideas and technology. Hell, that's why the iPhone is here. So please stop complaining "Th3yr try1ng t0 b3 li3k if0ne!" because after all, the PS3 is just trying to be like Atari!
That being said, I am more interested in the Raphael than the Diamond. I wasn't impressed with trying to use the OEM keyboard on the Touch, so unless they fix that, I'm loving my QWERTY. Although, if they fix it, it WOULD be nice to be able to type single-handedly..
just had a guy at ppcgeeks tell me Android is to the mobile market what Linux is to the desktop market. talk about having your heads in the clouds. im soo glad i ditched winmo and moved to the hero. after seeing the disaster of wm7 today i made the right move.
Wow haha... that man has been misinformed obviously. MyTouch 3G? Droid? Nexus One? The only Android phone I could really say that would fit his description would be the Samsung moment (haven't heard of many people with one).
Sound like the grown adult man working as a parking lot attendant living on the days of his tenure as a high school football player who scored the winning touchdown.they will catch up soon or later
Cant and wont agree with the comment from the guy at PPG, however the 7 phone is far from a disaster and I fully believe that it will bring WinMo back from the dead...even more so than WebOS did for Palm. Its look features, and functionality beats the **** out of everything on the market except Android. Anyway, I'm with Android to stay (though maybe not Sence next time around).

Recovering the costs of new development, and gathering anticipated profits to MS (or any other large company) will have to be realized before any new stuff is released. So they will slow the industry momentum down in order to maximize the money that can make. Money is fine. Slowing everything down sucks.
Now they can slow things down by screwing up others, ie.. specifications for open systems designs and so forth.
Only when they see their customer base being reduced (-14% winmo) will they react.
Google on the other hand supplies a "cloud base" and should be impervious to change costs on platforms. That could mean the introduction of new platforms and system upgrades. Certainly a more open environment.

don't hate I love my andriod more than my old winmo phone, but when html5 getting running everywhere. Now I say this with a tear in my eye(of happyness) there won't be a need for a closed app stores and alot more web based apps
Well after spending approx 500$+ what do we get..???
An awesome hardware with not so awesome OS..!!!
I feel like I am using Windows 95 on my Quad Core Desktop..!!!
We still have no Android Port [I know its not an easy task & I do respect the people who are workin on it], we are not gonna get WM 7 on it..!!!
So finally do you really feel you've got value for your money..???
I am using Iphone too [its 3G not even 3GS], to be frank I find its OS much better than WM 6.5..!!!
The thing is whatever I can to on my LEO I can even do it on my ELF juts has small screen & less graphics..!!!
My friends said "Hey why did you spend so much its almost like your overgrown HTC TOUCH, has nothin that new"..!!!
you know i keep hearing ppl unhappy...tell me, what the hell is wrong with wm6.5! with sense convering the main stuff, everything else is snappy. what on earth is so bad about wm? and yes i have used an iphone and android, and iphone is too simple and boring, android seems good but i dont feel that it offeres much more than apps which i hear isnt that great anyway
so tell me...what are your gripes with it? imo the HD2 rapes everything out there
you just said its crap and havent said what exactly is crap
I feel i have my moneys worth...yes the HTC Sense software can be buggy at times, freezes, crashes, but MOST of the time its pretty darn good!

anything that keeps the missus occupied for a hour allowing me peace and quiet is a damned bargain for me!
having owned HTC devices for about 5 years now, i never get bored with them, mostly down to this community right here... i have you all to blame for many sleepless nights flashing roms, customising themes and general geekiness
to put the whole Iphone/HD2 thing to rest...
when presented with a half-finished product, a man will attempt to solve its problems and get the most out of whats on offer... 99.998% of women allowing for the few dedicated female members here ) would get bored after 5 minutes and give up.
when presented with a product thats all form and little function, a woman goes 'wooo! shiny! all the celebrities have one so i must too!' a man looks at it, thinks "what a pile of chrome plated poo" and will never again set eyes on that product.
as you can see i'm clearly biased, but then im a man and i wont let the laziness of a few microsoft employee's get the better of me
in short, the amount of time my missus and i will share tinkering with the HD2 (without arguing thank god) is easilly worth the money i paid...

Im uk based mate. on t mobile too. got the hd2 for free and 50% off line rental on the friends and family scheme, making it 17.50 a month for 1200 mins unlim txt and unlim internet i was taking the piss cos he doesnt wanna belive that the hd2 is a good phone, so its sad for him to have spent so much on a phone he doesnt even WANT to like. I gave him reasons to like it and he ignored them completely
$500......? I know I didn't even come close to spending that. I spent all of $50 to get mine. So ya I feel I got my moneys worth.
Ok, I don't know if I am going through a buyers remorse but here are my 2c
The phone (Hardware):
One word F**kingawesome (yes, thats a single word...according to me )
Software:
OS:
Has my type of apps that I can tweak and play with...that's a good thing
Stability:
Hangs on me a couple of times a day (my mistake, I keep putting stuff on it and testing apps a LOT) but thats the way I like it...
conclusion:
Awesome phone as it...but
eagerly waiting for the android port (not so much for Win7 though...it doesn't look like a tweaker's OS)

In their review for the hd mini found here
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/...eview-HTC-HD-Mini-is-smaller-and-smarter.html
the last paragraph comes out with this little nugget..
And, unlike the HD2, this phone will not be upgradeable to the flashy Windows Phone 7 Series later in the year so you're stuck with the current version. Even so, the HTC overlay is so successful, and the phone itself such a joy to use, that it deservedly wins a fifth star.
Either they know something we dont or are very behind the times..

Agreed. It's a one night stand of an OS to me. Unless it gets hacked to pieces so I have the functionality of WinMo it will always remain a toy to be occasionally flirted with, that will no doubt leave me feeling guilty and dirty the next day and running back into the arms of 6.5 apologising for my weakness.

Well were coming up to to the month milestone of when Tom dropped the news of having WP7 running on his HD2.
I know I will get flamed for this, but I am niave and a part of me still despite no real proof being given, is hoping.
It would be great if we got some news/proof at the end of this month.
Seg
da_g and chainfire have stated this exists....
that's plenty of proof in my book imho
please people, let it go....nobody was gonna get wp7 on the hd2 before the news and so there is no difference if it was all a lie...
that said, i do belive in it, reputable people have said its true. just enjoy the damn device and when wp7 comes, it will come, and i would like to see a thread with all the non belivers apologising
I know some good reputable ppl have clearly stated that its true. I am not doubting them for a minute. I personally expected to hear or see something else since the initial statement. I do enjoy my device, I just love trying new things.
The conversation surrounding this, had died a little lately, so I thought I would spark up some more interesting conversation/debate.

But thats just it, how can you EXPECT something from somebody when they dont owe you anything? you can expect customer service from HTC, or expect an official statement from HTC about wp7 (which we got), but you cant expect news about someones personal project...you arent paying them, they are doing it out the kindness of the heart and the passion they have for this phone...
well thats my opinion for example...i fix my friend's and family's computers from time to time for no charge. nobody can expect me to fix it in any reasonable time frame, nor even even expect it to be fixed at all, even if i say i can. if they do, then its really unnappretiative and its quite hurtful. alot of people did ***** about the videos of wp7 on the hd2, if it was me, i wouldnt even bother giving it to anyone, just on the fact that so many people grinded me down about it.

yeah I asked him last week in a podcast he visited on ppcgeeks...said a lot including a test rom for tg01 which also makes a lot of sense. I've said on htcpedia that I wouldn't be surprised the devices we see in the fall are very similar to devices released LAST year with minor improvements in hardware (if that)
If the htc touch hd2 and the g01 were the true test devices that wp7 was based on, then as a developer I'd just go hey why do I need to make a new device? Use the old internals and I have a wp7 device. I think for early devices that's what is going to happen but again that's just my speculation on htc and toshiba. Dell et al probably have devices built from the ground up...
I mean I want to try wp7 too and its looking better and more fluid every single day that gives me hope that microsoft has made a better "coded" os that when unlocked will actually be more open than the devices we have right now. To get to that point will take time, but that's what xda is for. I mean zune hd is hacked, I expect wp7 to be hacked too. just depends on time and devices
edit
hoping this conversation remains civil because so far no flames no claims of it was publicity and I said on htcpedia again why does a site like that need publicity it averages in US daytime 250 members per hour! late night 125! a site like that doesn't need real advertising.
We can't say its an april fool either that's come and gone. so the only other logical outcome is that it exists there are some issues (lo and behold tom said there were graphics issues)
so I am waiting enjoying wp 6.5
Does anyone actually know Tom or Da_G or ITJE? Could they ask them for an update? Anything is better than nothing.

I just don't see the draw towards WM7. I stopped using the iPhone because the locked down environment... even after jailbreaking. WM6.5 w/ Sense is the BEST OS and GUI that I've used on a phone. It has usability elements while retaining the functionality of WM. It seems to me that M$ is moving backwards.

Im with you 100% on that statement. I feel like M$ is turning into Apple.
I don't understand why you are talking like this actually..
Sure, WP7 is locked down OS with many disadvantages, I agree with that!
BUT it brings lots of new features and its going to have full flash support etc.
it's not all bad.. basically this whole thing is not part of this discussion!
This is about WP7 on hd2 which was claimed to be real by tom.
Cheers
Apart from the HD2 WP7 exists/doesn't exist...
....
I don't get why there isn't any news from tom_codon or any other people and why they aren't releasing it..
Sincerely, I'm not understanding why tom_codon gave the news of WP7 on HD2.
I mean... okay, WP7 HD2 ROM does exist, noone apart tom_codon and some other people has got it, but why are you saying to all that it does exist if you can't/don't want to release it?
It's not so mature and smart in a community where all is shared and that lives on the ROM sharing to say "I've got WP7! But you won't get it! Hah!!"........ am I wrong?
