Hey all, i recently bought the HTC Touch on orange (well upgraded, but thats neitehr here nor there) and love it.... still getting used to it etc....
I was wondering where freeware programs etc are readily avalible from? and anything atall really regarding this phone/pda...
I am not asking anyone to google search for me as im far more than capible myself  but am actually looking for people to recommend anywhere they usse that is worth a mention....
hope im clear and hope to share lots of interesting facts/function/ programs with anyone

i love the device and would have bought it immediately if there wasn't the slow OMAP proc.
i know, for some basic apps etc it's enough, but why paying already a lot and not being able to use the full power of this very nice device.
i don't know what you use your touch for, but if you're into media like music and video or some intensive programs, then i'd advise you to...overclock it.
there are some interesting tools and threads.
a good site is xda-developers.
do you use any third-party full screen thumboards like resco keyboard pro? |

even though the raw speed of the cpu isn't the best out there, i read some reviews, that the touch is actually the fastest pda with the TI OMAP 200MHz proc...not bad..and i think with some tweaking you can actually get a very good and responsive device.. |

I've owned about 7/8 different htc phones and I know 200 mhz isnt going to be enough my current one is 400 and It still struggles at times... Good device though but I wouldn't buy it because I run too many applications simultaneously

maybe the qualcomm 400MHz CPU that HTC uses in the kaiser, sorry TYTN II must be finally an adequate processor |

the MHZ myth isn't like more MHZ = faster.
the 200mhz chip htc uses for the touch (and couple others) isn't the most powerfull, instead it's a very relyable.
it consumes a lot less power compared to the 400mhz.
which results in much longer standby time.
i'd recommend a tool called 'x-button' which does close applications instead of puttin' 'm in the background. so your phone doesn't get slower.
give xda-developers.com a visit, here is many many information avaiable about flashing etc.
i got myself a htc universal, just got linux running on it.
my next project will be windows 98 on my mobile! |
