Acer F1 [S200] WM6.5,supposedly shipping the beginning of October for very cheap price's and 1900 3G band which is good for US buyer's

HTC Leo WM6.5,with "too large?" 4.3" capacitive screen but very thin.....don't know of the ETA.

HTC has many other new device's coming out but they're all qualcomm 7 series powered so they're not worth mentioning imo

nope,that's big 4.8" and fat,uses AMD cpu...more of a mini netbook running XP not winmo,moidock could probably run Wing Commander though

Interesting device,hard to imagine it will sell in huge number's.

The Acer and Leo use the same Qualcomm 8250 snapdragon as the toshiba TG01 you posted that thread about

I'd purchase one if I had the money right now. However, I'm not a fan of losing expensive phones.

And the possibility of emulation is a big thing for me, not necessary, but is interesting. I'm currently fiddling around with EEMAME on my Nokia 9300.

A favourable first impression's for the acer F1 neotouch, I can't get over how fast the youtube video's start among other thing's.
Pretty high praise from the reviewer considering he's an iphone 3GS user.

@moidock, apparently the neotouch run's PS1 game's with fpse ce 0.6 emulator at high 60fps....god knows what you use for control's considering manufacturer's seem allergic to D-pad's and proper button's these day's.
These acer's are half the price of HTC's, and can be had through expansys from most countries


Seem's quite appealing the speed but having just returned an acer F900 because of the buggy radio software/firmware ,I'm a bit acer shy until I see a couple of month's worth of user experience's for this one, and will stick with my slow as molasses...but reliable touch HD

The HTC HD2 is out now in the UK, First Quarter 2010 for the US. Either tmobile or att will pick it up.

The HD2 will be my next phone. I might import it, like I did with my Touch HD. I can't wait for it.

Why Q?

He does make some good point's,especially about the sense UI, but seem's to forget that most user's who love it will never venture beyond sense UI to even worry about whether what's underneath is "ugly" or not finger friendly, or the fact WM make's it easy to use something far more customized and efficient.

The HD2 isn't for me, it's too much of an iphone wannabe with it's finger only input, if hTC had included their capacitive stylus they filed a patent for, built in, I would consider it, if it had a small d-pad also, even better.Less option isn't a step forward in my eye's.

That is a valid argument, regarding UI and WM. Rarely handy/cell phone users would bother to understand the working layer beneath, if the performance is as expected, as advertised.

I am going by the shop and see if it is being made available here across the channel.
