Guest richard_d Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 Maybe it looks prettier in the flesh :rolleyes:
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 12, 2006 Report Posted October 12, 2006 A bit, but not much (IMHO) :rolleyes: P
Guest Sp00k Posted October 13, 2006 Report Posted October 13, 2006 When will HTC give us what we want, rather than what they think we should have? Micro-SD yet again... Having to buy a new memory card at twice the price of the old one for exactly the same capacity is NOT funny! Added to which, HTC are now getting a well-deserved reputation for the crummy low-res cameras in their devices. This phone does nothing to endanger that reputation. As for the design.... Ye Gods! Are their case-designers graduates of Art Schools or Blind Schools? (With apologies to the visually-impaired, to appease the Politically Correct nuts out there!) Sp00k...
Guest genaldar Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 I can understand microsd in some tiny phones but while this is really thin I don't think the extra thinkness for minisd, or even regular sd, would've made a noticeable difference.
Guest Monolithix (MVP) Posted October 14, 2006 Report Posted October 14, 2006 If you think about it though, would you rather have one of these or a blackberry? It isnt that bad looking really... :rolleyes:
Guest spacerace Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 What's odd is that the slider has been replaced by T-Mobile for touch sensitive volume buttons. From what I've read the slider was quite usable...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 Been reaplced by T-Mo or HTC want to keep the 'JOGGR' for themselves? :rolleyes: Who knows! :( P
Guest peekie Posted October 15, 2006 Report Posted October 15, 2006 Just wonder when the orange version will come out , it is due here in holland this month if they can get the shipment released , still no spv phones here to buy which seems to be a htc problem and no good for orange , not sure if the dash will come here either as knowone knows anything about it at t-mobile holland :rolleyes:
Guest rfsmithsr Posted November 6, 2006 Report Posted November 6, 2006 If you think about it though, would you rather have one of these or a blackberry? It isnt that bad looking really... :rolleyes: I gave up my Blackberry 7105t for the Dash. Much better in total functionality. As a note there is a registry hack that restores the Joggr functionality that T-Mobile disabled. Works great. Ron
