It says GSM. Since AT&T don't carry Android, I would guess that T-Mobile will be getting this one.

uk786, 14 Oct 2009Just because it's not mentioned it does not mean it does no... moreit is called "high performance" gpu but it is at least one generation behind the PowerVR SGX gpu (Omap3, 3GS, N900, Omnia HD).
compare at: www.glbenchmark.com
not that great but it should be fine for most applications.

Hey, how about Acer Liquid vs. HTC HD2... I guess it all boils down to the OS!! Android vs. Winmo... Damn, this one is hard!!! I guess I'd go for the HD2! TouchFlo is very cool! (and maybe the HD2 will get a free upgrade to Winmo 7... who knows..)

uk786, 14 Oct 2009It has GPU do research before you post BS!Not according to Wikipedia:
"Snapdragon is a name of an architecture of a family of chipsets with an ARM-based CPU. The architecture was developed by Qualcomm (which calls Snapdragon a "platform") for use in smartphones and mobile computing devices. It is designed for real time ubiquitous computing with low power consumption for day-long battery life. The first chipsets in the Snapdragon family were the QSD8650 and the QSD8250, available since 4Q2008, both integrating a 1 GHz applications processor and including cellular modem and GPS."
Where is the GPU mentioned? Hint: even if you read the whole article, you won't even find a trace of a possible GPU!
Please provide with your own source...

i really hope it has a 3.5mm jack.
btw to those who say racheal is better, wat does the racheal do differently? as far as i can tell these 2 r very identical so y get the one that will be released later (presumably)?

No GPU = Fail
Sorry, but you can't except a high res phone without a GPU to run smoothly, you just can't. The GPU isn't solely used for games, it's used for the UI as well, and it's also the reason why the Iphone's UI is that slick.
N900, Omnia HD and even the Iphone 3GS are better than this, even despite of the lack of freedom in Iphone.
Now just don't say that I did recommend the Iphone, since I'd never do that as long as the N900/Omnia HD exist, but the Iphone does honestly deserve a sweeter spot than this phone.
It's ok if you say that the N900 rules, becuase it surely does, but don't say that the Iphone is worse, because it isn't.
