[neversommer]

Hello Guys

I am new here and also bought this very cool deal from Modaco.

I currently have the Iphone 3G.

I cant wait to get my hands on this Desire HD

Thanks for the amazing deal

[Rascar]

Hey guys, i'm kinda new to this stuff so one question. I'm from Holland, Europe, so when i'd order this Desire HD would i still be able to use this as a simlock free phone with 3G and provider settings? Thanks.

[PhoenixAG]

Yes, if its sim unlocked, you can use it all over the world on a GSM network.

And seeing as this deal is giving it to you sim unlocked, yes, you can use it anywhere with 3G and provider settings.

Why no shippign to Canada :S! This sucks!
USA is on the list...I want this phone too!

[bobbyphoenix]

OK, like the previous poster says it is available to ship to the USA.  My question is can anyone tell me what the actual cost is before I click submit order?  When I select US for shipping I get the "fill in all info, and click submit order", but the cost is not in US dollars.  I just want to make sure I have enough on a certain card I want to use for it.  PS Thanks for the great deal.

I should have searched first.  I found a converter.  If anyone is interested here it is for the USA.  Total including international shipping in EURO is 456.49, and converted to US dollar comes to $627.47768 delivered to your door.

I would buy it directly if Madaco adds ARABIC language to fully support the phone and the ability to change the font style for the whole phone.
is is possible?

We've worked with superetrader to put together a special offer for MoDaCo members which gets you your HD and a bunch of accessories at a grea price that is designed to be competitive, not to mention getting your name down for a device that is going to be very popular and is expected to sell out!

• Car Charger
  
• Swirl Black Leather Pull Up Pouch Case

What did you use to convert?  I was already charged for my order.  I even upgraded the package to include an extra battery, and an invisible shield protector, and my total charge came to $674.37 USD (with shipping) to Florida.  

As far as service I'm not sure about HSPDA+, but I know over here in the states we will only get 2G for regular data, which is fine for me since my T-Mobile coverage here is spotty, and I actually only use 2G by choice.  This phone is also suppose to be fast even on 2G with download speeds around 500kbs.  Right now I get about 200kbs and I'm happy, so the HD will make me happier.  Also using 2G is limited anyway for me by my use of always being in places with Wi-Fi.

Why do you all talking about euro? The only price I see is in GBP, which is absolutely not equal to euro.
Wtf?

PS: 456 GBP = 721 USD

Hey Guys,
It looks like a great deal, I am living in London, but I wonder if Hebrew is supported already, since I need to use it on my phone, I will have English as the system language, But I really need Hebrew language support (right to left), Do you know if it is a built-in support or i will have to wait to root to add it manually?
Thanks
Roy

Every time I looked up costs to convert all the places showed it as £488.79, and they converted it from EURO to USD.  That was only the fist choice of conversion, so I should have paid closer attention.  You are correct.  Sorry if I confused anyone.  Still it is worth it for me.  I can't wait to get it!  All hail DHD!

[PhoenixAG]

There's a lot of talk about the stocks of the DHD getting delayed.

I have sent in 2 emails to superetrader, first to their sales department and then to support with absolutely no response from them whatsoever. I cancelled my preorder at Play.com (who I trust) to superetrader only because of the backing of Modaco (a site I trust as well).

However, absolutely no response from them is making them seem like a fly by night operator.

Can we have some update on WHEN the phone is expected to be in stock and ship?

[PaulOBrien]

The date is very fluid at the moment, and is 100% dictated by HTC.

Rest assured that whatever happens, we should be in the very first shipment of devices, so nobody will get them before us!

Sadly these devices slip EVERY TIME there's a new launch...

[PhoenixAG]

Well, I guess posting here helped somewhat as I got an email from them today!

Anyway, as stated above, there's nothing the retailers can do about it as of now. It's all in HTC's hands, of course. However, it is very disappointing that while HTC hopes to compete with Apple and the rest, they still can't come up with a release date and pricing for a phone and then actually release it on that day. They surely would annoy much fewer users, if the threads at XDA are anything to go by.

[keef319]

I see Superetrader are now saying the DHD is expected to ship mid-late October.  

Makes me wonder why the original date of 11th October changed to 6th October. It was only a couple of days ago that I read it'd launch on 10th Oct...

[PaulOBrien]

I wish HTC would just set a date and stick to it!
