My Nexus One is going back tomorrow, sorry Google!]]>Jan 7th 2010 4:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/
As someone who is typing this on a HD2 right now I can say that you're in for a treat ;)

however be warned that there are some bugs mostly small but the worst one being the random inability to send SMS messages without turning it in and off. Check out CDs developers for more info. Hopefully htc will have ironed out the bugs by then, then this phone will truly make a grown man weep. I can play tekken 3 with a Bluetooth gamepad on it for crying out loud!]]>Jan 7th 2010 8:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/Jan 7th 2010 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/Jan 7th 2010 5:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/Jan 7th 2010 5:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/I wonder why ATT...?

Now where's WM7, to give the HD2 the software it deserves?...]]>Jan 6th 2010 10:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/
Does not get any better than that. Will have the both the TP2 and HD2 to make my choice, depending on which one I like.

But that will mean no more Android. I was thinking about the Nexus, but I like the HD2 far better.

I am as excited about the HD2 as I was with the TP2.

And cool thing is that I bought the TP2 on a one year contract, so if this does not debut until August I can get it at a discount, but I'll pay full price if necessary. (I sell my used phones on eBay after about a year and get almost what I paid for them or $100 less. So it does not really matter what I pay, unless I don't have the disposable cash at the time.)]]>Jan 7th 2010 12:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/Jan 7th 2010 3:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/
Android doesn't do desktop syncing, which kills it for me (and Google's Outlook plugin to sync to Google Calendar, which then syncs OTA with Android, is not reliable/consistent enough to compete with local syncing via WMDC (for WM) or iTunes (for iPhone), primarily because of differences in how Google Calendar formats PIM data (leading to sync issues)).

In any case, the HD2 is going to be able to run WM7 when it ships, either by official upgrade or XDA-Devs. Also, HTC's phones scheduled for later this year are all slower than the HD2, with the focus being on increased battery life (via the smaller-process Snapdragon revision).

So overall, not a bad phone in terms of short-term future prospects either-- use it with WM6.5.3/Sense today and then upgrade to WM7 in the summer.]]>Jan 7th 2010 8:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/
I bought my TP2 a week or so after launch for $149 on a 2-year contract. They're selling for over $300 on eBay at the moment, so right now I could make a profit (/recoup enough to cover the additional cost for the HD2 if I don't get a subsidy) though I'm sure prices will drop like a rock when the HD2 hits...]]>Jan 7th 2010 8:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/I'm really glad it's coming to T-Mobile.

Only thing that scares me is:
1. They won't have full exclusivity
2. I'm scared to see the pricing of this thing

otherwise this is some really awesome news]]>Jan 6th 2010 10:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/
Arguably, anything with a keyboard is more expensive to make. My T-Mobile Touch Pro2 by HTC has a keyboard and it is now priced at $450 and was $550 when it debuted in August 09.

So I suspect this, without a keyboard, will be about $450 retail and $300 subsidized. And if they compete with the Nexus, by that time it may even go for less, assuming the N1 is down to $400 or so.

Sidenote: In the old days I would say that since it has a larger display, that would drive the cost up, especially this one with a 4.3" display. But TFT displays cost very little nowadays. So that helps us siginificantly.]]>Jan 7th 2010 1:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/06/htc-hd2-officially-headed-to-t-mobile/in response to my old comment
I read over at tmonews that T-Mobile will in fact carry the device exclusively. That makes me really happy!

How do you guys not see the biggest difference is the 4.3 inch screen??? Have you seen a side to side comparison between the HD2 and NEXUS??? HD2 basically puts the N1 to shame and makes it a completely irrelevant product. Android or not, HD2 is the sexiest phone on the market at this time period. ]]>Jan 6th 2010 11:59PM
