    I highly doubt that. They're getting the HTC Incredible which is pretty much the exact same phone.

    The rumors behind T-Mobile are actually pretty weak. No 3G bands, nothing hinted by any execs, just pure speculation based on the fact that it might got to T-Mobile UK. I think AT&T has a pretty good chance at landing it because they have no high-end Android device and are supposed to be getting an exclusive Android phone developed by HTC.
  11. How is it better than the N1?

    its not really unless u r a sense ui fan, it only has 64 more megs of ram, i dont see how its better either especially since no one has had any hands on with it.
  14. i like this phone over the nexus, for the simple fact that its black lol

    im just attracted to black gadgets
  15. The optical "pad" is what I like about this phone compared to the nexus1. I think I'm tired of trackballs
