I've been debating on the transformer or the Xoom....
now that the Xoom has SD access, will custom roms be next? Or is something still missing?
Yes, AFAIK still HC missing source code, although bits are starting to come out.
ugh I guess ill keep waiting...
Why wait once source gets released I'm sure the xoom will be the more worked on device
Who knows, alot of people were saying they were returning their Xooms

And a lot aren't
But the Transformer needs the source code as much as the Xoom does... so... it depends which one sells more and the Xoom has a head start.

Most if not all of the people returning the Xoom for a Transformer are doing so because of such minor issues, which will be resolved soon anyway. Getting the Transformer for the keyboard dock is stupid IMO. Congrats, you just bought a very expensive netbook.

Or you know.. Because it has a significantly better screen. Oh and wait, it's cheaper than the Xoom with a keyboard! Even if you don't use the keyboard, you still have it. Unless I'm mistaken and it doesn't come with the keyboard, because I have been not caring about the thing at all lol.

Mainly the SD card not working. But also things like the UI lags, there aren't enough apps, its heavy (I know, not fixable). Crap like that.
And the keyboard for the Transformer is $150 I believe.
People choose Transformer because it has better IPS screen and cheaper, and that's important.

Hmm. I'm not trying to be dense here but for me at least, the IPS screen is not better. Going by the iPad screen anyway, for reading it's not that great, and that's a major part of what I'll be doing with the Xoom.

This is simply a lie coming from someone who owned both and now only Xoom. I pad screen is better at everything. Its brighter AND crisper so how can't u read?
Well, no it's not a lie. Thanks for calling me a liar though.
I've read on the iPad and it was OK but not brilliant, the letters just don't "pop" like they do in a book or ereader. I haven't seen a Xoom yet but I've been led to believe by reviews that it's better for reading than the iPad.
My opinion: the ipad is too bright, even when its toned down. Especially if your in bed at night try to not wake up the person next to you or land air planes on your bed.
Hello all, I'm from over at the shift section lol and no I'm not trolling. I was wanting to see if ANYONE has an extra epic, or if anyone has an epic they don't want anymore. I'm trying to find one VERY reasonably priced. The condition doesn't matter as long as it works and the screen is better than decent. Someone please help me out here I'm dying to have that samoled and used my damn upgrade on the shift.

Sorry bub, I love my Samsung Epic. I am running it with Gingerbread. You know what the best thing is some dude is working on port HTC Sense to the Samsung Epic. Dude you are screwed. Try posting an ad on craigslist too, if you have not already done this. You might find some sucker who has the Samsung Epic with Enclair. You can probably tell them that your phone is better because it has a better operating system or some crap that that. Good luck they say a sucker is born every minute.
P.S. Maybe this person might possibly sell you his Epic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1086880

I think you should try BestBuy, they're giving out Epics for FREE w/ new contract/upgrade. Buying an unactivated used one can cost quite a bit still. Might as wel grab yourself a new one.

Its not too crazy much. That was for my zip code.
It would be interesting to see what would happen if one of our mods got their hands on one of these.
Neat! It is only 5 bucks shipping to Canada. If this came with Honeycomb or ICS I would be more interested in picking this one up.
That is a cool device.
Let us know how you like it.

I'm going to do the same thing I do with all of my other phones...use it . As far as making reach its full potential, I'm waiting for a bad ass custom ROM to surface. Once the boards are riddled with new ROMs that really push this hardware, thats when my fun really begins. For now, I'm going to run stock for a couple months to give the development community some time to cook up some awesomeness.

Just waiting for a JB AOSP/AOKP or CM10 release in a few weeks hopefully.
I really like JBs new style, and Google Now looks great. If there is a nexus device based on this hardware that would make an almost native porting environment I would be crazy happy!! A guy can dream can't he?
I would have bought a GNex but this hardware is just in another league,

What case are you planning on buying? My sister wants to put on a cell phone charm as well, but the only cases that have a cutout for the lanyard are Samsung cases that we've found so far.
Actually...I liked "Take over the world"
Buying more accessories for it than I need. Cables, cases, batteries, chargers, screen protectors, etc... till I figure out which ones I like best and use most often, then the rest will stay in a box as spares.

Anyways..the phone itself was very nice looking. I love the weight. This phone has some good weight to it because of the aluminum body. The camera was pretty damn amazing and the HTC Zoe feature was pretty cool.

I got to play with it today as well, the display is amazing! Don’t like that their isn’t a removable SD slot... You cant remove the ZOE, but you can change the home page.
It looks like a solid phone and definitely a better upgrade to the htc onex :good:

I got to play with it as well. This phone is pretty sick. The camera is pretty awesome. The zoe feature sold me. You can basically create a movie with it. Lol. The phone is smooth and very responsive. The blink feed is nice as well. The front facing camera is best I've ever seen. It has the capability to be used as a tv remote. The aluminum body felt great and not cheap in the hands. I have the note 2 and think I will buy this phone as well. The list of new features goes on and on. If they can get proper advertising, this phone will be a great success for htc.
