Hey c'mon, this is the tilt! The design is a 10/10! Who gave it a lower rating than features / performance?! Unbelievable!

The phone does have auto focus. Notice that GSMarena rarely updates their first set of specs, and please try researching other sites before you bash one of the best phones to come out in years.

Well, well, well what do we have here? A marginally improved HTC TyTN? I noticed the camera has no autofocus. No improvement in the camcording. Screen's resolution is still QVGA. Colour palette is still 65556 colours. It will be difficult for it to compete with i-mate's upcoming "Ultimate" series. Mind you if it performs reliably, and the keyboard responds well, coupled with a reasonable browser and price I could be swayed.

I'm starting to worry about when I buy it, the fact that it would start to hang or freeze when I open 3 or 4 aplications at the same time, can any one tell me about the media 'cause I really like to ear music and wacht my favorites videos and I would't like to buy one thing that does't work like I want.

Got the 20 channel GPS working on MioMap and TOMTOM software.

So far, satisfied with the pre-production of P4550

There is one problem though, CPU isn't very good at handling multiple opened programs at a very fast speed.

Other than the CPU, everything else I am satisfied.

A great improvement in this model relative to all features but i prefer it to be less 40g in weight and it'll be great if the display resolution is more than 65k.

To DamZ

There are a few comparisons that need to be addressed when comparing the p4550 (Now officially called the HTC TyTn II) and the Toshiba G900.

First of all a fairly important difference between the two is the screen resolution. The G900 and the P4550 both display 65k colors (Which is both sad and disappointing for such high end mobiles), however the G900 has 800x640 vga resolution versus the P4550 240x320. Also the screen on the G900 is slightly bigger. This all means that the screen will look more vibrant and bright on the G900, but in turn will burn through a battery substantially faster than the P4550. If battery life is your concern go for the P4550 and if over all presentation is important take the G900 (though in my opinion the screens will not be that much different from each other other than brightness).
A main difference is the bands they run on are different which would be a main deal breaker for any USA user. Since you are considering the G900 I would assume that you are of the Tri-Band group so this comparison is of no consequence to you.

Another clear difference is the camera quality. Again this a talking point that is based purely on preference. If you don't care about a camera then this is not a consequential topic. However, it is worth mentioning the 1 mega pixel difference in the cameras (the P4550 has 3.2mp camera versus the 2mp of the G900)

Also, I saw that you were concerned with the lack of the 3.5mm jack. This can be easily rectified with a AD2P bluetooth headset (which both handsets support)

Take all of this information how you will and use it to make the decision that is right for you.

Which is better?? Toshiba G900 or Kaiser??
I get enough from considering the e90 with kaiser but the G900 is worth considered too

Btw!! where's the 3.5 mm Jack audio port!? at least gives the 2.5 mm one!!

HTC, please do something about this one

Excellent. But had it been with 256K display with Video/Aoudio output it would have been superb.

Although I feel as though I have spent far too much time learning (and obsessing) about this phone, I still am curious how the GPS will work. Does this mean that this phone will have a GPS program that I will open and then be able to track myself just like a normal GPS without paying any sort of monthly fee or buying maps?

Luis,
The way I understand it is that the phone does indeed use the SiRF III Chipset.
