Had iPhone on Tmobile USA, that sucked. Then thought I found my niche with the BB Curve 8900 but this phone is super sexy. <br><br>Any rumors as to what US carrier will get this. I know T-mob is the only carrier with android phones but what in the rumor mills?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[R2D2]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2009 4:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have Tmob too and would love to upgrade my Nokia 5310 up to this sweet azz phone but I doubt Tmob's gonna get it. Rumors on here are swirling like crazy and to be honest, our best option if it doesn't come to Tmob (which it should!!!) is for it to go to AT&T. At least it'll be GSM that way and we'll be able to use it on our network too. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[blaster master]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2009 4:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[There were rumors that sprint was gonna release this phone then ATT or around same time, there was also rumors that this was a NO, NO for T-mobile so who knows again those are just rumors.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Periks19]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2009 4:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[But if it goes to ATT, even if its GSM, it won't have the 3G that Tmob USA uses. I wanted to move into the android arena or touch screen smartphone but Tmob is always slacking (don't like the mytouch 3g or G1). <br><br>If this goes to ATT I think I will switch, unless theres an unlocked version with Tmob USA 3G bands. All other carriers have better phone options. Tmob is always 100 steps behind in the game. For example, all carriers have a 3G Blackberry except for us (Tmob clients).<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[R2D2]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 17th 2009 5:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[This might just be phone for me!

Hopefully Att does pick it up, but if not, I will gladly pay the $600 for a unlocked US version. I'd just have to save up.

The screen resolution is actually lower than the other HTC phones that are coming out (with the exception of the Snap), this will be the last handset HTC produces that doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack, and the screen is somewhat smaller. I would have like to see something more comparable to the iPhone or the Omnia 2. It will be better than the My Touch, but there will be better devices coming out this summer.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dwayne]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 18th 2009 11:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dwayne, the Hero is the first HTC device to come with the 3.5mm jack AFAIK, not the last to be without it.<br><br>I think you should hold judgement on the screen until you actually have a go with one as well, the stores will have demo phones around soon enough, I suspect in practice it will be absolutely fine.<br><br>Going on paper the Nokia N97 should be awesome, I thought it was a sure thing for my next phone but now a couple of people at work have got it I can definitely say that I won't be getting it. Not when there is this little jem out there. The general user experience of a phone is the most important aspect to me (this includes all of the phones functions so media playback is definitely important), and whilst I have a 5800 at the moment running S60 5th (and I am perfectly happy with it), on the N97 it just doesn't sit right at all (but I thought it would).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goose]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 18th 2009 3:00PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[i like the rubbery black coating much better anyhow.. keeps it from sliding around.. feels good.. white teflon is for women :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mwbob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 19th 2009 4:04PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[while web browsing, or using any app for that matter, can the phone be turned so its in landscape mode, and the trackball be used like a pseudo mouse? if so...im freakin sold! <br><br>if anyone has any info - PLEASE! - share it! lol]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gigaddon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2009 4:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[yes...i know a trackball is a pseudo mouse! lol]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gigaddon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2009 4:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[Here are different versions of the hero; g2 touch should be the one for t-mobile usa with umts 1700 ?<br>Notice the should-be-enough 288mb RAM !<br><br><a href="http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdamaster&posted=1&model=HTC%20Hero%20100" rel="nofollow">http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=pdamaster&posted=1&model=HTC%20Hero%20100</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vincent]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 22nd 2009 1:57AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[More importantly i heard this device should have multitouch; can anybody confirm this ?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Vincent]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 22nd 2009 1:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The HTC Hero has landed... in our hands]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/07/17/the-htc-hero-has-landed-in-our-hands/</guid><description><![CDATA[From what I've read elsewhere, most agree on a fall release date, with several stating the specific date as Oct 11th.
