Do you still think that ad featured the Moment, phatning and not the EVO 4G?
Yep, it was definitely a Moment, not an EVO 4G.
Anyone else seen the ad?

yes there are several articles out now that have said that 4G will NOT cost more, I am too tired to refer you to specific posts but im sure someone will get that info to you.
Thanks a lot guys. Sounds like fantastic news to me if I'm able to hold onto my everything data plan.I'm just referring to what Dan Hesse himself said today in his keynote. I was watching it streaming live, and he very clearly compared 4g vs. 3g to cable tv and hi def channels. He said that the hi def channels are a great perk, but that the cable company charges extra for them, and then said that the 4g data improvements are a perk thrown in for free. However later he was talking about how in the distant future your data plan price will be based on how many gigabytes of data you use per month so things will change eventually.
I wish there was a recording of the stream or a transcript so we can hold him to what he said and sue for false advertising if they do try to do an additional $10 4g surcharge or something when the phone's released...
I'm honestly fine for the most part even with my Pre which apparently has terrible battery life. I charge it overnight and then take it to work. Usually by 8 or 9 pm I have anywhere from 10-50% left depending on how much I used it. When I first got it and was constantly screwing around on it, I just kept my USB/MicroUSB plugged into my desk computer and whenever I sat down at my desk I would plug the phone in. That way whenever I got up to go do something I was topped off.
Until battery tech dramatically improves, this will be an issue with big touch screen phones with 2g/3g/4g/gps/bt/wifi radios. I just keep it topped off in the car and at the desk as well as overnight. If I really need it a lot and know I won't be near a charger, I bring a spare battery that I charged ahead of time.
Thanks for the welcome!! Yeah I know they wanted to add the buttons as a means to compensate for the trackball/trackpad loss but personally I'm not to found of the size and placement. As far I know the trackball helped navigate cursor placement which is something I can live without, I know this because I do live without it on my pre. I guess my question is dos the trackball serve another purpose I'm missing? I haven't owned or used Android for a significant amount of time to know.Welcome bestphoneverThose arrow keys replace the trackball or trackpad found on other HTC devices. I'm sure you're already aware of that. I personally like the idea. After watching the first video in post #1, I get the feeling that HTC likes to go with ideas that are the most popular in their company. Someone else made a comment in another thread that the arrow keys are kinda ugly, probably because they're so large. I don't have a problem with that either, mostly because real small keys might be hard to operate. My guess is that you'll get used to the arrow keys and you'll like them.
I don't know that you'll be able to switch keyboards, but I suppose it's possible with some kind of setting change. After the Nexus One was released, a lot of people were saying they wished the N1 had the HTC keyboard, which most were claiming was better, instead of the native one that came with it.
Guess you can't please everyone.
This looks amazing man. HTC should definitely change it to that.

Sorry, I'm not "down" on Sprint. They are by far,imo, the best. Just REALLY BUMMED that this phone isn't going to drop til like June. Just sayin
Just checked spec form sprint site, and here are items, in red, that got me excited the most in order of priority:
1) 4.3
Dont know if it has been my month long obsession now with the SUpersonic/EVo, or if it just started, but I just now for the first time noticed an HTC commercial for the HD2. It touted the 4.3 inch screen and that was really it. How long has the HD2 been out? Just thought the timing was interesting, but maybe I just never payed enough attention? If it is new, im guessing the EVO announcement may have spurned it?
1) 4.3
Wow I didn't notice the tactile feedback. Do any other phones have that? So when you type you can actually feel a 'click'??
Actually, the HTC HD2 was released last November or December in Europe and it's just now coming here in the US to T-Mobile. I thought it was an awesome phone when I read all the reviews and watched all the videos last fall, but it's WinMo and that killed it for me. During that same period of time people were asking for the HD2 to be ported over to Android and wallah, we have the HTC EVO 4G and it's even better than the HD2.they're new commercials. HD2 came out yesterday

Wi-Fi Charging is an option...BUT you still have to carry extra stuff ( chargers ) around to charge your portable wireless device. A extra batt. would be easier / smaller than this item and many other options like it.
How many times have you been talking on your phone and told someone my batt. is going dead, I will have to call you back later ? The batt. is one of the most import items of any portable device. If this happens every time you use your phone because the batt. won't keep up with all the new toys added... What's the point ?

I passed by a T-Mobile store today and checked out the HD2 just to have a taste of what the Evo will be like... BIG mistake on my part!
The screen was gorgeous, the screen was very responsive, it was thin, the Transformers trailer loaded onto it was beautiful... I could go on and on.
It's now making the wait for the Evo that much harder knowing how much I loved the look and feel of the HD2.
