HTC announcement
The rumor has it the HTC Hero will be officially announced, along with a new operating system user interface, called Rosie. We hope the manufacturer surprises us pleasantly and shows off other aces they have up the sleeve.

If the Hero really does look like
, then that's a shame. They had the chin right with the Magic, that is just absurdly unnecessary.

^^
why are they persistent in implementing that silly curved style which was a rip-off from motorola Rizr Z8?

Hot damn, I change my mind, the live pictures look a lot better, not being pink helps as well.

And that my friend brings us to a moral. Never judge a phone in looks when the only available picture is in pink.

I have to say that I'm starting to warm to android and this might be the phone that really introduces me to it

The design on this one really hits the spot for me, not sure why but I really like it
Shame HTC put an underpowered processor in it to make the UI supposedly sluggish

Ohkay HTC!

Me too, each iteration seems to get more interesting.

So wait is this Android 2.0 or is this the special flashy version of 1.0(or 1.5?) of Android by HTC?
Posted by razec
Wow the design now looks better (as usual) but i still hate the chin design. and the back looks so boring (HTC MAX)

HTC is really turning on the heat in the smartphone space
...wondering whether there will be a more affordable android phone available

Never take bald CPU clock rates as gospel Willi, each OS requires quite different speeds to run at an equitable rate
Great review Nanu, only thing that put's me off one, as a photo-centric user, is the lack of a flash, on the whole, only the variety on offer from the app store would tempt me towards the Iphone, otherwise i'd take the HTC product.

Can only say this is a cracking phone, got it yesterday and loving it.

According to engadget, the latest firmware for the Hero is rolling out now and includes many speed enhancements to please those who were not happy with its lag

Paul @ Modaco had released this early and the speed improvements are amazing and I wasn't disappointed with the speed before
