HTC HD2 coming to T-Mobile U.S.!

Capacitive

I actually have some expectations of WM now lol. Its more advanced then android sure but its lacking obviously but let's hope this is Tmobile turning over a new leaf to get us better hardware in phones and if it is tmobile I knew you were listening all this time.

Capacitive screen on winmo is interesting, i hope all of htc's future devices have a capacitive screen.

First the N1 and now this, so hard to choose from

Um...we rock and we always do things first.....but i need a keyboard no choice here between them.

Anyone using Google Voice?

Yeah! Finally offilcial now we get to move this to the HTC discussion>(child boards)HD2
Cant wait for this spring, gonna be fun!

Until T-Mobile releases the HTC HD2, let's keep this thread in the "Upcoming Phones" Board

"TV/Movies at your fingertips" - what EXACTLY does this mean??

RE: http://www.tmonews.com/2009/10/htc-hd2/
Is there something ELSE coming with the HD2 like TV/Movies something?

I think it has to do with IPTV that Steve Balmer was talking about in the CES keynote.

Also, Now that you mention Manila TV, when I loaded this up on my tp2 (http://htcpedia.com/541/soft/htc-rhodium-rom), it did include a Manila TV tab!  Could not keep the ROM going on my TP2.  As soon as I synced my Outlook with work, HTC sense slowed to a crawl/unusable.


On the CES presentation, does that imply that you have to "sync" videos to your phone from WIN 7 PC?  I did not see anything alluding to direct network access to content as with Manila TV.

Man this phone is really sexy. I cant make up my mind on what I want. This or the N1. My upgrade dont come into effect until 4 months, so hopefully some more phones start peaking their head out by than...

Anybody think there is a snowball's chance in Hades that we MIGHT see WM 7 on the HD2?  Be nice!

I HIGHLY doubt it.

Yeah.  I was reading some of the posts on the HD2 blog entry.  Interesting opinions.

I definitely believe it will be upgradeable to WM 7 though.

The HD2 will definitely get a WM7 upgrade. It is currently the only device on the market that meets the WM7 Chassis 1 requirements. For example, the TP2 will not get an official WM7 upgrade because it doesn't have a capacitive screen which is required for multitouch. Here are the Chassis 1 specs.

Core requirements:
Processor: ARM v6+, L2 Cache, VFP, Open GL ES 2.0 graphics HW (QCOM 8k, Nvidia AP15/16* and TI 3430 all meet spec)

Display: WVGA (800×480) or FWVGA (854×480) 3.5” or greater diagonal
Touch: Multi-touch required
Battery: Sufficient to meet Days of Use LTK requirements.
Controls: Start, Back, Send and End are required (soft controls allowed as long as they are always present).

Peripherals:
Camera: 3MP+, flash optional, 2nd camera optional (VGA resolution sufficient)
GPS: aGPS required
Sensors required: Light Sensor, Compass (3 axis, 5 degrees, 100 Hz sample rate), Accelerometer (3 axis, 2mg resolution, 100 Hz sample rate)
USB: High speed required, 20 MB/s transfer rate.

Wi-Fi: 802.11B/G required, must run MSFT Native Wi-Fi stack, Atheros 6002 or Broadcomm 4325 recommended.
Connectors: Micro USB and 3.5mm Audio required.

Options:
FM tuner: If tuner HW is present it will be detected and supported by the Media application.
Haptics
SD Card (Micro SD recommended)
DPAD, qwerty or 12/20 key keyboards all optional
