Aren't the minimum specs of Windows 7 Mobile at 1 gig for flash ram.
Memory: 256MB+ DRAM, 1G+ Flash

The HD2 has only 512 flash ram

Since this has visual voicemail I question whether it can actually activated on SERO

Everyone is commenting on the damn chin (which I am glad is gone), but doesn't the fact that is has a capacitive touch screen kinda overshadow that?

"a 3.2-inch capacitive touchscreen with pinch-to-zoom capability"

I don't get why people have such a hardon for a chin, I think the chin looks kinda dumb. I would take this version easily over it, I think the steel faceplate looks classier than the total plastic looking version of the Hero. I love my Touch Vogue form factor and this looks like a bigger version of it, hopefully this is indeed the phone for Sprint.

I seriously doubt the HTC Touch Pro 2 will require a certain plan. This isn't a phone that is going to be released with any fanfare other than to the geeks and business users that want it. Also every other carrier is going to have the same phone that can probably be activated on any plan, so why would Sprint make themselves less competitive by requiring a certain plan.

There was an amazing Pip Boy 3000 theme for ThrottleLauncher which works on Windows Mobile but Bethesda shutdown the theme with a cease and desist letter which I am sure will happen with this theme also.

How about they deal with Switched Video and release BOCUR tuners so media center can get basic on demand services that cablebox users get.

I don't get why people care about this phone.
Samsung release a crappy upgraded version of their "exclusive" phone that is still inferior to their own Omnia.
The upgraded version still has a 2 MP camera? What did Samsing actually do to update this phone other than make it more round?

Am I the only one who doesn't give a @$%! about Comcast's On Demand HD service? How about actually giving us some actual HD channels that we can view on TV, especially those with cablecard who can't view the On Demand content in the first place.

dammit comcast, add some HD channels to Jersey...we have nothing!
