I'm not sure why more people are not excited about this device but it truly is a great effort by HTC.

WM has always been easily customisable with various registry hacks and I've already added a few myself including enabling 802.11n support and a battery meter that shows more granularity.

But now it seems, a Multitouch API for HTC HD2 Windows Mobile phone has been discovered! so we can look forward to some more exciting new apps as this is developed

@ masseur

How do you find the size of the HD2 compared to the iPhone...?

How you finding the sound quality for music and battery life...

Cheer

size-wise, its only a few mm wider and taller and its no thicker but the huge screen more than makes up for that
the screen itself is just about as good as the iphone in terms of touch responsiveness though the virtual keyboard is not as accurate as the iphone

sound quality if very good actually, but as might be expected from the 1ghz processor, battery is not as good as the iphone but so far it has not let me down for a days usage... and as anyone that follows me knows, I charge my devices every night because I sync them every night and so I am never looking for endless days of longevity.. and at least the battery is replaceable and at not great expense, so I will probably be getting a spare for my trips back to oz

pocketnow have a specific sectoin for HD2 and there's a fair bit of news today with a 3D driver patch being available, new of o2 unlocking their HD2 for customers of good standing and a registry change to remove the button protection while in a call.

I have this site bookmarked now and its been quite informative looking back through previous HD2 articles

spent some more time with the HD2 tonight and still very happy with this, but...

My office uses WPA2 Enterprise for wifi security and though the iPhone supports it quite easily I can't quite figure it out on the HD2. Googling suggests that earlier WM versions had a simple registry tweak to make it work, but that fix doesn't seem to work with WM6.5

has anyone managed to get a WPA2 Enterprise connection working on the HD2?

ok, moving on (he said talking to himself!)

The HD2 has an official ROM update coming soon, but if you can't wait, you can get it from here

ha ha, yeah that's part of being a winmo user, not many people know enough to help! Thanks for the links. I guess the update is only fixing issues and nothing new. Is there a list of what's fixed? Typing an Esato post in landscape mode in Opera is infuriated. The cursor jumps all over the place and so does the view. Also in opera auto capitalisation and auto full stop is not there.

I haven't seen a full list of fixes yet but yeah, nothing new as such. Some have said that it fixes some purple tinging in the camera, but I haven't seen that issue myself so can't comment

I have found that the typing experience is a good deal better, and more accurate and smoother and also virtual button presses seem more accurate now too.

I can now log into my youtube account though it doesn't seem to do what I thought it would do, i.e. show me my favourites and other personalisations withing the you tube app, so I've now got to figure out what logging in actually does for me!

btw, in the same way that the new opera mini 5 beta 2 is available, so too it Opera mobile 10 beta 2 available for WM and I do prefer that over the built in Opera 9.
