@jjo3
The best deal i have seen anywhere currently is believe it or not Expansys on a T-Mobile deal which is
HTC Touch HD £165.99
T-Mobile Combi +Web N Walk 12 month contract @£35pm
300mins/texts & 1GB Data
Total price over 12 months = £586 but of course you get all those minutes and data for just £86 more than getting just the device and interest free credit is how i look at it. Plus of course coming from Expansys it will be a generic version with no branding.
Seeing as i made a profit on my X1 i am very tempted to now try the HD but want to check on out in the flesh first to see just how much bigger text is and if i can live with WM or not.

Hi,
enjoying the HD at the moment, but Touchflow is a bit hard to get used to.
For example, was trying to add some cites to the weather application, and flicking my finger gently over the screen, resulted in the page scrolling too quickly.
Maybe I need to RTFM and check some things out
Small sized photo's that maybe have been OK for use as contacts in the TyTn II will look awful! So re-doing photo's for contacts in Outlook has become necessary...
Big problem is CE-Star does not work.... so Japanese and Chinese unavailable for the time being...
Home screen perhaps could be more customisable, maybe there is a way, but not got to that as yet...

Hi everyone!
I am enjoying my Touch HD so far and have managed to get CE-Star working so I have my Japanese support back, for email, contacts, calendar and also for titles in mp3's
I do not see the point of writing a long review so I have posted links here to Slashgear's reviews.
part one here
part two here
From my own point of view, I do find the TouchFlow quite hard to get used to, but I have only used it since last evening.
For example, setting some cities in the weather application was good in some respects. You can touch from the list of letters a-z down the right side to get a list of countries then later cities, but when you want to find the city which is just off screen, the scrolling whizzes on past it !
Maybe just practice is required.
I was not successful with Tom Tom 6.03 and have no idea why. I also used google maps and even though the interface and screen looks great, I was positioned more than 1500 metres from my actual position.
Late last night, I tried google maps again, whilst sat in my study
and the GPS positioned me in the centre of a quarry that is about a mile away !
There are a few threads at XDA on GPS
here and
here Garmin seems to have no problems !
Contacts pictures look great but some of mine were made small size for the TyTn II and now look grainy on the Touch HD.
There is some debate here
at XDA about what size photo's are better.
One person recommends 256x256px 72dpi but another says that it still poor.
There is a utilities and programs thread that lists what works on the HD
here at XDA.
Headset that comes in the box looks cool, but the design of those buds just do not stay in place for me. The mic and headphones are integral so to use your own you need a micro-usb adaptor......
I have not tested the sound quality as yet but initial impressions are good via my headphones, although the built in speak is a bit tinny.
If I think of anything else, I will post again!
