If that is true, then it looks incredibly cheap and tacky!
Winmo7 with HTC sense over the top to make it look half decent again lol
looks like microsoft are trying to make the today screen look like a bog standard phone so as not to scare away people who have never used windows mobile previously.
if that home screen isnt customisable then ill eat my hat.
Not sure anyone has view this interview before :

Ok this is very weird!
Over at one of the biggest gadget site's engagdet.com people are very positive about this! I come to XDA, then I see this. Why are you so negative??
IMO, this at least shows they are going a NEW way with WM7. I am really really excited about this.. just 2,5 hours left!

not realy surprising as engadget are a bit more geared towards out the box use as opposed to xdev's hands on approach...
I think it look great.

Yeah but I think its better first to know whats past the home screen, what functions and services it offers etc. etc. All we got here really is a big picture on a wall... and people already giving it the finger...
Engadget havent lifted it from the box yet nor have any xdevs been on the aproach...

Nice. The lack of a gazilion tiny task-specific buttons indicates that WM 7 is gonna have a real touch-based interface. I like that.
very nice interface
I want that for my HD2
IMHO - that looks really nice - now I just hope that it will be made available for the HD2...
Ugly as hell. Gonna wait for the official presentation before drawing any conclusions though.

yup..same here....
far too many rumours and photoshopped stuff going around these days. easy to get excited and think that a lot of stuff is coming, only to find out it was a fake or was removed from the final released version.
As long as it's configurable (i.e.: I can get rid of it!), the interface doesn't bother me.

I'm just bored of rumour this, rumour that. I'd rather see it working than a print on a wall.
Loved the UI! Exactly what I was expecting! Its the User Experience that matters rather than the User Interface! And MS has done that this time!
Around half and hr to go now! Lets wait and watch!
Hold your horses... Maybe it's the WM6.6... ?
Damn people ...
Take it easy guys till Microsoft shows this thing, .... I think the preview looks good. lets hope there is more to it than that tho!
Yay guys, Our beloved HD2 beats the contenders in Gadget Show's test.
John Bentley even adding codicil that, as well as being a potential iPhone beater, the hardware is superior
I love this phone
any link to this show?
I'm pleased it was a fair test too, very good report! I Love my HD2
did yo have any doubts?
they still had a snide remark about windows mobile though...

Clickety website. Tonight's show will be up to view soon.
Damn - was about to come on and post exactly this.
Just watched it with my wife who loves iphone
Beat the motorola driod & nexus one - and (as said) nearly the iphone. Bearing in mind the gadget show loves the iphone to death :S
Ouch...the Nexus One took a panning
Considering how Apple biased these guys are, I think they must have been very impressed with the HD2. For me, the HD2 is the best phone available at the moment.
http://fwd.five.tv/gadget-show/videos/jon-test/samrtphones
the spelling mistake in the URL is on purpose, , , ch5 have spelled it wrong
and who cares what anyone else think, I, and I repeat I think this is the best device for ME, period. Don't you think?
It's nice to see media are noticing phones other than Apple branded ones!
Why can't I see the video? Says I can't watch from my current country/location? What gives?

Also bearing in mind the review focused on two of the 'weaker' aspects of the HD2, the camera and text input, it just shows how good the HD2 really is (I personally think the camera is very good, up with my Ignito/Diamond if not better, and once I installed Swype - wow fantastic!)
I haven't had a single crash, no obvious issues with my 1.48 ROM + camera fix, totally happy so far

TBH the review itself is superficial, complete with classic english eccentricity, it's the outcome that's surprising considering the gadget show's iPhone fanboys
Forward to 6:51:30 and pay close attention to the her hand raised to her Ear @ 6:51:38 and Pause....that bak of the HTC HD2 !!!!!!
They have masked the front of the phone with CGI...LoL
HTC HD2 .....YEP !!! there it is !!!

the region restricted video content has not been in place long. can't see the point of a site like others that restrict viewing to the UK where it airs anyway.
I always thought that the Gadget show was sponsored by Apple as they are so biased!
One thing though...Why didn't they include the Iphone as part of the tests?? surely that would have been a fair comparison....Well we all know that the Iphone would have been knocked off it's perch and they wouldn't want to show that!
I was just thinking, in two or three years when we've all moved on from our N1s, we could band together and stick them together into a giant android sculpture, or a transformer
#random
Crazy idea buddy but good idea to honor the n1, the best bravest and most innovative phone ever but the worst treated by the media, utterly assassinated.
Maybe a site which each person with an n1 IMEI rate their n1 online on a 1 to 5 scale - and get a virtual n1 to build a sculpture with, and a place to write comments on their virtual n1.

Or maybe make a chat app like chatroulette that uses the device numbers as registration so its n1 users only then create a meetup.

I have. I went into the tmobile store to browse around (I like using the mytouch to remind me how fast my nexus is) and a black guy (no offense to black people) that worked there was like (literally) "Oh shiz you gotz a nexus two? Beast phone evar." And he whipped his out. So I showed him mine.
Long story short, he payed me 50 bucks to make his as awesome as mine.
Too bad I forgot to mention I voided his warranty xD

lol, unless you happen to be from small town #34, NJ I doubt it.
I wonder how long it will be until Google has a manufacturer produce another developer phone?
The Nexus one is the most perfect phone for me and I cant see anything but another developer phone replacing it. It's beautiful, cutting edge, gets updates quicker, is with T-mobile, and is not under carrier control.
What more could you want?
I only know two other people who have nexii one. And they both bought one because they saw how awesome mine was.
Im sure we could get google to organise something like this, an N1 graveyard of kings.
I wonder how well it would've sold if it had been available in stores.
Now that Google have announced they have the final batch of N1s from HTC, I went and ordered another one! I'm going to leave it in mint condition.
I have had range of different cell phones since 1993 and none come close to the N1.
I know that the future will bring much better phones, however, I do recognise what Google was trying to achieve with the N1.

I unlocked it, rooted it, upgraded his radio and kernel (OC, UV - and he was still running 2.1 update 1. Working for Tmo you'd think he'd get the upgrades first xD) And after that, I gave him CM6, cause that was pretty much the easiest way to get all of the GOOD mods in one. I gave him ADW using the paperless theme, and he thought that was way cool, along with the black desire notification bar. It probably took me, including download times, about 25 minutes using his laptop. So, if I could do this for a living, I could charge $120 an hour =D

Good idea for an APP. Kind of like Google Latitude, but open, and it only shows other people with the same phone. =D

Not a lot, but what if they come out with a phone that has 1gb of RAM and a dual core 2ghz proc.
I'm pretty sure that if there was a developer phone with something like that, I *might* drop my Nexus, and run drooling to the online store =D

i was
i was actully in the bank here in miami and a person asked to see my phone and went omg this is a nexus one he said he has never seen one before lol made me feel good about the 400 bucks i paid froma guy on craigslist lol.. even at the tmobile store where i bought my case all the employes liked flocked over to check it out.. we do have a great phone feels good to have something very few around me have... kinda like day one when i got my g1
While reading some of the other posts it seems ppl are so excited to get there phones and are upset about the suposed delays. So for those people who are wanted to do stuff with there HD without having it here are my sugestions :-
-- Making some cool theme ieas in the theme section
-- Dessuss the accesories that look good/bad in thee accessories sections
-- Looking for cool new apps (thats always fun)
-- Pass the time catting to fellow HD owners to be in irc (freenode #DesireHD)
-- Reading this thred you probably spent 10-15 seconds reading this you have now gotten 10-15 seconds closer to getting your phones (yay !)
I do Not recomend
-- Refeshing the Realese date threds every three seconds (which i seem to be doing)
:-D
-- Alternatively, Stop procrastinating on those assignments
-- Email all big tech blogs and beg for their Desire HD reviews!
Buy an iPhone 4
^Wow that is a good one! Nice idea
I think if we have developers around here, maybe rooting could be a good place to start? I mean, we do have the original rom to take apart.

Waiting for DHD
Well guys I am going to buy a desire 2nd hand and then see what the reviews say about the DHD and make a decision then.
After all how much can I lose £50???
I just purchased desire brand new £250.00 already sold to someone for the end of the month pickup.
Now where was I ow yes living
I just got pipped at the post on ebay. I dont mind paying £250 but its difficult finding one at the right price.
Try gumtree that's where I found mine. You could buy mine and I could get another!

The iPhone really sucks. You have to wait for a jailbreak (and that's going to take a while) and you can't tweak the iPhone. Just wait for the HD.

A bit extreme - personally, I will never use a "closed" device again. Android is the light in the Apple Dark.
Well guys I bought myself a second hand Desire this morning and the seller rang me up to confirrm despatch.
The great news is that I can get rid of my iPhone 3GS and have use of a "better" phone for me.
That means that I can be less anxious about the DHD release but will wait for the reviews etc and then decide whether to skip the DHD for the new dual core phones out post xmas and which should run Andriod 3.0
Keeping my pre order with Clove though and hedging my bets
Here is some good naughty stuff to get you started:
http://tinyurl.com/3x2ljt7
Got email from Mobilephonesdirect.com this morning.
We are
expecting to be able to fulfil your order in the next 15 working days which
means your Desire HD should be with you by the end of October.
I pre-ordered this back when delivery date was the 7th.
Looks like none are getting them before the end of this month, ow well at least we know now.

Im gonna overclock my touch hd as much as possible... doesnt really matter if it breaks anymore!
Actually, I need to sell it... oops

It shouldn't...but that concerns me lol...

Ok so the note is quite big when you hold it to your ear but you have to remember, or i did anyway I was used to a smaller device. So the trade off for this for a short time before it feels like the norm...better web browsing, great battery life and the ease of being able to snapshot anything write directly to the screen and get any info I have about any given subject out there so much easier. Il take the trade off any day
Those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.

Its no problem at all to hold it to your ear. It does require two hands to use it (maybe I can learn to use it with one hand after I've had it for more than a day.)
