R5500 before taxes and shipping.

If it doesn't go above R6500 (I know, I'm dreaming, because they obviously have to add their "I'm gonna f*** you because you're south african" charge) I will definitely cop.

Flippin f***ing finally.  8) 8) 8)

I knew this had to happen soon, South Africans love gadgets and Nokia would be dumb not to bring this phone here. One thing 4 sure, this phone won't go for less than R7000.

Amazon is currently selling it for $500 and you qualify for free shipping, now that's what I call a sweet deal. Unfortunately, it's temporarily out of stock.

Nexus one looking powerful:

http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/01/google-debuts-android-powered-nexus-one-superphone/

"Nexus One users can rely on speech anywhere on the phone where text can be input — users can speak their e-mails, text messages, tweets and web searches. The phone also uses dual-microphone noise cancellation for improved voice quality and speech recognition, and has a vastly improved user interface which incorporates widgets that can pull in live data feeds from web services like Facebook."



Wonder if the GOAT can box with the new contender?

The streets is watching tate, its about to get ugly



http://www.htc.com/www/product/hd2/specification.html

Negatives
It's Windows Mobile 6.5. BUT, HTC Sense is so extensive that you practically don't have to interact at all with WM while giving you one of the best homescreen UI experience you can ever have now. Watch this video at least even if you don't care about anything else.


The good thing? The best hardware on a phone yet:
    • 4.3" Capacitive Display with 480x800 WVGA resolution
    • 2.64x4.74x0.43 inches profile weighing 157g
    • 1Ghz Snapdragon Processor
    • 512MB Internal Rom with MicroSD support
    • 448MB Ram
    • 5MP Camera with Dual LED flash
    • Accelorometer
    • 3.5mm headphone jack
    • MicroUSB connector and charger
    • 1230 mAh battery
    • All new updated HTC Sense, letting you access Contacts, Calendar, Messaging, Email, Weather, Twitter, Stocks, Music, Photos and Videos, Settings with a mere swipe of your finger
    • Fastest and smoothest browsing experience yet
    • HTC support for multitouch and pinch zoom across browser, media player, and gps

    And it's actually not that large because of the very efficient use of space and minimal bezel.


    HD2 Dimensions 120.5 x 67 x 11 mm, Weight 157g
    iPhone 3GS Dimensions 115.5 x 62.1 x 12.3 mm, Weight 135g

    Misc Info
    For those concerned about WM itself, basic apps and functionality such as media players, facebook, myspace, multiclient IM, mobile remote, rss readers, radio, google maps, wifi tethering, Outlook integration, OneNote auto-sync all do exist for free and work quite well, nothing to tear your hair out for.

    Another plus, HTC has the biggest Windows Mobile development community you can ever find, providing you with frequent OS updates, OS hacking, app development, and many many ways to hack and customize your phone.

    I've been on Crackberry Bold for a while now, and I have to admit, I am sold. It may not have a touch screen or look as cool as these phones here, but having always on, free 3G access is nice and I have all the apps I need as well.

    Anyone else use a BB?
