HTC Hero approved by Global Certification Forum, rocking GSM and HSPA

We're unfortunately light on details here, but The Unwired is reporting that HTC's Hero has been approved by the Global Certification Forum, listed here as "HERO100," with support for quadband GSM/GPRS/EDGE and dualband UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA at 1800/2100 MHz. With the company's touted London event just around the corner -- this Wednesday, to be exact -- we wouldn't be surprised to see the phone and its oft-rumored "Rosie" Android UI take center stage, in possibly two variations. Other than frequency bands and the associative name, the GCF isn't giving us anything else to work with, so for now just sit back and hope this uncertainty is cleared up sooner rather than later.

Looks cool, but I could do without a 4th of the phone being slant.

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could take a look at my site www.iboy.me and see if it works with the HTC Hero. In particular I am interested in knowing:

1.) Does it come up in a mobile format (not the wide PC/Mac screen).
2.) Does Google maps work on it 'Map' link at the top of page.
3.) And does the pictures from Panoramio work. You can get at them from the map screen 'GetPics' or from the World Places and Photos.

Thank you in advance.
-Al, iBoy.me
