I hope the wait's worth it. Due for an upgrade at the end of the month and i can't wait to be shot of the omnia. The worst phone i've owned.

                Radio is not that important to those getting or using the device
                They are also OK with the color, which looks great btw
                They dont mind the 512MB storage either

                        A Nokia 1208 should suit PHONE needs in that case.

                          The OS doesn't even support full Bluetooth capabilities, or does it? Not sure about this one. What I know for sure is the lack of support for FM-related stuff, screen and camera, and that's mostly it. I know no phone is perfect, but this is isn't even nowhere near that.

                            True, the device lacks a camera flash, storage, some colors, radio blah blah....

                            But the UI is very well designed.
                            If you wanna take picture, get a camera
                            Want more storage, get Bigger Sd card
                            Color Rsolution is good enough
                            Radio, use pandora, lots of internet radio out there

                              The OS is unmature and flawed. Some of its lacks:

                              Low-res screen, no internal memory, no voice control/video call, few colors, no digital compass, no FM radio or FM transmitter, low MP-limit, low video-res limit etc.

                              Don't get this beta phone. Either wait for the full Android OS, or get another OS.

                              Do whatever you want, now you know what you'll get at least...

                                Hi guys i was wondering if anyone answer a few questions i have

                                Since this phone was released did it get any firmware updates to fix the lag that the device has?

                                Does HTC hero have editable office i.e word , excel etc

                                and last thing could anyone hook me up with a website or a forum where i could really learn more about this device software/abilities and future plans to support this phone

                                Thanks in advance
