once I saw the review of the HTC HD2 I was hooked. Finally a phone with the screen size to match my PSP. Plus all the other bells and whistles. I am an avid Windows Mobile user so I was a little disappointed that once in the states, the HD2 will not be running WM on the Verizon version (Passion). However, that’s just my own lack of experience or change. After reading a bunch of reviews, it sounds like not having WM OS will be a plus.
Good design but there is a negative that I do not like – no stylus
i’m not really a stylus kind of person though so i don’t consider that a negative. my old phone had one and i lost it. got a good deal on this one at gsmauthority.com. i love the design of the phone as well. some ppl think the screen is too big, but i love it.
I bought my HD2 nearly month ago, already got lot of apps on it however need more of course. Nonetheless need to in finding higher PDF reader, with better fullscreen mode and multitouch. Making plans set up android on it however it’ll be no longer very soon.
Yes I would like the elements at the home srceen with news updates, yes I want contacts visable at any given time, I desire a train app, a flight app, a highway congestion standing app and yes I desire a phone so they can respond to my each command and no longer dangle/freeze or shutdown like my present Nokia E72 or my previous Blackberry Bold.
