I Need A Hero.... :-)

[Monkey]

Hi All,

I`m new here and as I am seriously thinking of getting a Hero I thought I would "Google" for Hero Forums and found this place.
I have read that the phone is to be offered on my network of 3 next month
so I wont have to go back to T-Mobile to get 1.
May I please just ask something and I am sorry if you have read/answered
this a dozen times or more.
Do you think that HTC will issue a second version of the Hero because of the
lack of ability to take photo`s in the dark from what I have read anyway and unforgivably Not putting a Flash on the phone?
I can do without the camera myself as I have good enough one`s on my old Sony 800i and Nokia N95 8Gig but is it true that it does not have Bluetooth?
If not how do you transfer files between one phone and another, is it via the old Infra Red way?

Thank you in advance.

Peace,
Andrew.

I think HTC will be releasing another Hero-like phone in the not so distant future. There has been word of their "Dragon" phone, as well a some photos of what appears to be it. It will be very similar to the Hero (running the same SenseUI), but it will have a significant hardware advantage, including better camera, flash, larger screen, and faster processor.

Odds are, HTC wants to get this phone out by the holiday season, but I'm not sure it'll happen. And even if it does, there's really no guarentee it'll make it to the US any time soon, or to which carrier.

Hero has bluetooth, and doesn't have infra port.

Thanks for the Answers, I thought it was a bit strange the review I read saying no Bluetooth.

Peace,

There's only BT handsfree/headset/ADAP profiles at the moment, no file transfer.

Do you know if that will come in 2.0? (officially I mean, the rooted BT file transfers don't work for me..)

Get one, it's the dogs bollocks.

Does that mean that you cant transfer Picture Texts from phone to
phone either then?

Peace,
Andrew.
