Wifi's been almost everywhere in my place nowadays, so i guess it would be fun if this phone's been equipped with at least wifi, i dont care much about 3g coz it will cost me more if i want to surf the net, but with wifi i can surf at no extra cost.. Design looks good though..

to Overseas,

reg, typing SMS while standing in train, you have a software available called thumb pad which you can install in this Windows Mobile.
This thumb pad software will replicate the number pad on your mobile screen. now you can type SMS like any other mobile with keypad.

Now, thats the power of Windows !!!

this device is a big flop coz there is no 3G support for high speed internet access or video calling.
even a mid-level to low-level spec model from nokia has 3G nowadays.

How do you SMS people standing in a train or bus ? Do you have always to use a stylus for everything ? Or is there a sliding keyboard ? Not easy to tell....

When is HTC going to run out of the TI OMAP 200 MHz CPU stock. 80 % of their devices use that CPU. No doubt its a very reliable chipset, But its too slow.

the cost of buying a micro-sd wifi will actually make buying a higher end PDA phone more viable.

wifi is free in my country for almost all public areas :)

As regarding this phone has no wifi.In this technology world of today this is unbelievable wifi is the way forward most places today give you free wifi or you can hook up to somebody elses wireless network (if its not security enabled) with skype you can also download the software to your mobile. I just wish that wifi had a faster connection.

people who say 'oh it has not got no wifi' really, how often does this get used? my mobile contract with voda phone gives me free interenet, why would you pay 5.00 for 30 mins wi fi time?? most users shouldn't be put off by lack of wifi, i'd guess that most people hardly use wifi in an average day!!! great unit!!!

stunning look but not worthy for money. No WiFi, No 3G, No FM, 2MP Cam with no Flash, and 65K Color display.
Design: 10/10
Features: 2/10
Performance: Yet to Release.

The handset looks really, really great, BUT WTF...!!! Where is the WiFi, 3G (even 384kbps would do). The least that they could have done is put a 5MP camera in. Then it wouldn't be so bad. And what only a 200MHz processor. even the P3400 has that. Come on guys. They need to step up their game a little.

It's the same with most handset manufacturers though. I think that the only company to get it right so far is Nokia with their N95 8GB and I hate Nokia so that is saying alot.
