Got this on upgrade yesterday and it's awful. Perhaps if you're a regular WinMo user you might get along with it, but all the hoo-har about TouchFLO is unfounded -yes, there are improvements to previous pocket PCs, but it's not really possible to operate it without the stylus and it's soooo slow. I understand it does a hell of a lot more than most phones (watched a YouTube vid on it last nigh...v. good) but the basics are pretty shoddy. I would be wary about swithing to this if youve never had a Windows based handset before. Watch for mine on eBay!!

O2 confirmed price in the UK, it's free on the £35 tariff, £99 pounds cheaper than an iphone

Why the ratings are different?
- not the same people rate it
- if you buy the real thing (HTC) you get a unit working as it was designed
- if you buy it with O2, you get a useless operator SW, that not only takes up space but also limits the functionality. Specially when you are roaming....

its really HTC, but o2 have made their own version, but all the spec is the same as the original htc, also t mobile have got one, called the t-mobile mda compact IV. they all look good

i bought the htc,waasnt too happy, lags alot, batt life is poor and it heats up at the back. Now i got the SE g900, and what a phone that is!!!

> In reply to V @ 2008-08-19 07:13 from nF@Swrong...google the term 'sister company' and you will soon find out that typically it relates to companies under one umbrella, sharing one parent company.
O2 and HTC are 2 seperate entities without any root link except for their business collaboration.
tw*t!

Yes, HTC is a mobile manufacturer and O2 is a mobile service provider. And YES they are also sister companies.

V, what sister companies means in simple english is that they are working together/ collaborating each other to produce the needs of each party.ok. Now, if you think those two arent sister companies, why is this handset produced??? made by HTC branded by O2???

Its the same with HTC and Tmobile. MDA Vario VII.

what an airhead.

and whoeva said HTC and O2 are sister companies...no. O2 is a network provider and HTC provider of the handset.

all this is the HTC Diamond with 02 branding, which is basically what most UK Phone companies do, its not a copy of the original, its exactly the same with 02's software incorporated into the software design of the phone, basically how tmobile have called this Phone the "T-Mobile MDA Compact IV" this is what 02 have decided to call it, the why do some people think its 02's version of the htc touch diamond, its exactly the same!!!!!!!

wow. it really is identical to the touch diamond, right down to the dimensions!! :O

I just hope it does have better "in use" battery life than the diamond, which is fairly poor.

plus this had better have a nicer to hold back as well... touch diamond feels weird in your hand lol
