Guest Sp00k Posted October 13, 2006 Report Share 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 Share 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 Share 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: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest spacerace Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 What's odd is that the slider has been replaced by T-Mobile for touch sensitive volume buttons.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... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rfsmithsr Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
