[deleted post]Dude 3 days is merely enough to get use to a virtual keyboard. It took me some time (tho not that long) but i am absolutely happy with my Desire (the previous model) and can type so quick my friends think im using a keyboard! But like i said it takes a lil practice and dont think that ur typing needs to be that accurate as many ppl new to touch screen believe, as there is dictionary with autocorrect

1. WI-FI
2. Disable background data
3. Disable 3G - use GSM
4. Adjust Screen Brightness
5. Onscreen Animations
6. Never use live wallpapers

I'm not sure if HTC will release 1600mAH battery. Though, I have made an enquiries and they are aware of the (battery) problem but so far there's no indication it will be resolve sooner.

Goodluck!

I used the desire HD (DHD) for three days before selling it again, here is why I didnt like it:

1. Dont buy a touch screen phone with no keyboard if you use SMS,Email,and Chat. The on screen keyboard of this device is very good, but this, or iPhone or any other touch screen the writing is slower than keyboard/keypad and the keyboard took a lot of screen space when used chat applications such as MSN Droid and Gtalk.
2. Arabic support is important to me, in Froyo (Current software release of DHD)Arabaic appears disjointed and in reverse and you cant make up the words, not to mention the keyboard natively doesnt support. You can install some 3rd party software from the android market for free but they dont give you full functions and they screw up your native keyboard.
3. Once you define Wi-Fi's and enable data communication the mobile goes out of its wits to connect online whether you know why or not, and I tried fiddling with all the settings on my mobile to restrain data usage with no luck. Its not just cost, its privacy breach.
4. (Free) software you download comes with the google ad banner that takes from the screen real state and it feels you are cheated out of a space you can otherwise use for something meaningful.
5. I use email, moderate talk, and gmail and facebook. with this usage the mobile battery doesnt last past the afternoon.
6. Not much control over software behavior; applications seem to start without them prompting you to use, and you cant control which connection you authorize them to use. and I really dont know the logic behind the fact that there is no close button for the applications, you can "Kill Them" by downloading a separate program to close programs! only the problem is they pop up again without you starting!
7. The hearing speaker is placed in a dodgy why on the tip of the phone that you have to place your mobile in an awkward manner to hear the talk of the other party, and the outside speaker IS bad, both in ringing and handsfree calls.
8. The Dolby and surround SRS features are almost useless, especially with the sound being low both in the speaker and when using the miserable headphones included.

I realize a lot of the above goes as general features of android, other seem to be on touch screen phones with no-keypads. I hate my current Nokia N97 Mobile, but I had to sell my DHD and get back to it.

My next phone? still not sure, might wait for a querty keyboard Gingerbread (new android software) enabled phone (gingerbread should support arabic natively). I am intersted in windows 7, but it is still not mature platform. iPhone? no keyboard :S Blackberry? hmmm.. Email and BB messenger are good, otherwise (and without the BB service) not a great phone. but until now, its back to my stupid N97, at least i have a lot of control over its online behaviour and its a snappy messaging device

We were promised robots and flying cars for the year 2000, and then came the promise of the "Smart Phone".. all lies :S

As you know new technologies changed every 3-6 months. It's hard to cope up with the phones as newer phones comes out in the market every 6 months - that's where the prices jacked up. And it drops once it settle in and the another new phones comes out so and so forth.
