How is the GPU on the new 8255? As in can it compete with the Galaxy S?
The look of the Desire HD makes me want it, aluminium body <3

Not as powerful as the galaxy S GPU, but reports say its close. And it is definitely more powerful than current snapdragon (adreno 200), 4 times more powerful i've read.
 
I looked up the GPU at Qualcoms site - they say 41m triangles/sec, roughly twice the current-gen Snapdragons, and not quite half the Galaxy S/iPhone 4's 90m/sec.

that 90m/sec stat is wrong. A few people reported it first, then eventually the wrong info circulates the whole web and everyone believes it. It is roughly 45m/s in actuality. You'll see, the Desire HD will benchmark very close to the Galaxy S.
 
I'm pretty stoked about this. I'm possibly moving to Europe in two years and I just got the Incredible a few months ago, so good timing!

Not really.. If you think the Desire HD will be a good option in two years (hell it probably won't still be being sold) you are SERIOUSLY underestimating how fast technology progresses, but don't worry In two years there will be something far far better to upgrade to.
