Hi All,
I work alongside the I.T department in a large international company, I am in Australia. We deal with tech toys and computors (PC) all day every day. We are seeing the real day to day challenges with the company contract phones which include HTC, iphone and other popular makes.
Just some feedback regarding HTC interfaces/menus, despite great design, technology and overall build quality, it would appear most of the HTC phones have a slightly "awkward" menu with access to simple things like contacts and other core functions a few more clicks away than you'd prefer. Also emails are often displayed in less than professional format.
Another comparison, is the quality and responsiveness of the HTC touch screen to date has lacked compared to the iphone.
BUT, All in all, if you want a touch phone, HTC make the best device for professional office compatability.
iphones are evolving into good devices too, but when you weigh up the apps against professional uses they are far from ideal if you need serious synchronisation with the VERY established typical microsoft platforms over laptops and desktops found in corporations around the world.
Something else I read about a lot here is ppl commenting on speed and a phones performance online. It should be well noted and considered that often this will have much more to do with the service provider, here in Australia we have great differences in network coverage and performance and variables such as time of day or location can change a phones online performance, this can be said for many countries around the world that share the same network technology.
I am not bias for one or the other, BUT if you are an exectutive and need on the file/media/email compatability with microsoft or if you simply don't want the restrictive media properties of the "i" devices, you should seriously consider HTC.
Good Luck

Anthony, 02 Nov 2009WinMo and Android
There are too many differences to list.
... moreDear Anthony,
Firstly I must say that I think you are perhaps the most sensible user of this site and I support your responses to NICK.
I have recently started to consider this phone after NOKIA announced yet another delay to the release of the N900.
As you seem to be so knowledgable about phones, please give me your opinion of which of these 2 is the better.
I am a professional who travels extensively and theerefore need a reliable hand held computer. I have little or no knowledge about programing etc.

Luka, 02 Nov 2009Can anyone tell me what is the diferent between WinMo and A... moreWinMo and Android
There are too many differences to list.
I will just give the main ones.
1. windows mobile OS was made by Microsoft to be a version of windows for small portable devices (cell phones being just one of them).
Android OS was made by Google and it is a version of Unix for cell phones.
2.Winmo is made to be 100% compatible with Microsoft products (no conversion needed)
Android is made to be 100% compatible with Google products (no conversion needed) {THIS DOES NOT MEAN that they don’t both understand other file format or support some of each other’s products}
3.Android is open source.
winmo is hacked/mode so openly online that people think it is open source :-)
4.Android OS support 16m colours
Winmo OS support 65k colours
Hope this was of some help...

come on people nothing is special about this phone except it is oversozed. I have tried it. My friend lent me one. Screen was not that responsive and features not to good. Plus, it was too big in my hand. I just wanted to put it down and stomp on it because it was so slow. I showed my friend the omnia II and he loves it. He is gonna buy it soon.

If you are not in the UK you will not pay the tax price on the web site.
If your country has an import tax on cell phones, you have to call DHL in your country, tell them you are importing a cell phone, give them the value of the phone and they will be able to tell you what the tax charge will be.
