You know 2 people at my work have hd2's and were trying to convince me to downgrade the phone. I really like the new wm7 platform and can't wait for it to evolve. This phone IS a smart phone.
Agree with you on that although I hope MS comes with a lovely update quickly and get more apps for us on the market place

Just keep in mind it's Windows Phone 7 and not Windows Mobile 7. The change in name is meant to denote a complete departure from the old to the new. WP7 in no way resembles WM and is completely new from the ground up. Let your friends know WP7 is a whole new ballgame and they need to get involved with.

What MS needs to do is to release those 50 "Launch" titles (games) that they promised and boasted about at past press releases for Day 1. This weekly release like other XBLA titles is completely crap. You hope for a good game then get something crappy....like that Fast & Furious game.....
I like the WP7 OS as well!

Because when I initially got the phone- I was unhappy about the lack of tethering. I can still Tether with my TP2 so until or if a fix is made- I can deal with it. WP7 is worth waiting for the updates.

I believe from a "legal" standpoint actually talking and sharing ideas about developing for the iPhone is against the SDK.
Have you not noticed that this is an "HTC" forum. Since HTC don't make the iPhone, and since the iPhone doesn't run WM, there is absolutely no chance.

This forum is called "XDA-Developers" for a reason. It is dedicated to HTC devices, which at the time the forum was set up were only released under the XDA brand.
The two platforms are completely different, and share no common ground.
People may want their HTC device to look like an iPhone, but that doesn't mean the site is going to dedicate space and bandwidth to the iPhone it self.

But a therapy group, to convert might be a good idea.
But truth is on XDA it won't take long before more and more objections get it. Just because it's against the cause.
There's also no sense of discussing it.

I'd love to have android or wm6.5 running on a phone like HD7. It's a shame there aren't any phone's out that were like the HD7 that ran Android or wm6.5. If I was to invent some, i'd call the one that ran Android the "Desire HD", and the wm6.5 one the "HD2". that'd be awesome.
I guess it'd also stop people coming onto the HD7 Forum just to post irrelevent duplicate threads, or at least that's what you'd think....

Would you settle for a Ford because the garage didn't have a Ferrari? That's the lamest excuse I've heard in a long time...
It's not Close mindedness, it's common sense. You want Android, get an Android phone. You want Dual Boot? Get a device capable of doing it.
Dual booting will become a reality for WP7 devices, it's only a matter of time. But creating Dozen's of threads on it isn't going to speed things up. If anything it'll slow it down.
My prediction is all of these WM6.5/Android threads will become redundant once Mango's released anyway, and people won't want to switch between OS's cos there'll be no point.

It is close mindedness, although I agree with the fact that if you wanted a Android he should have gotten an Android (I did, only reason I come to the HD7 forums is because my dad has one and I play with his). How did devices that are capable of dual booting come to be? It wouldn't have been possible if everyone was in mindset "I don't want that cause I have this".

I've been hearing good things about Mango and I think that WP7 will become a real competitor to iOS/Android once it comes out, until then however it is another story.
Who wouldn't want a device that can dualboot. It also preserves the life of the device in a sell/trade aspect.

I've seen exactly the same thing. The 1230 capacity battery on the Desire HD is way too small for a phone with 1ghz processor and the big screen.
The HD7 has the same specs of course, but because WP7 doesn't allow multitasking and background jobs the battery life isn't so much of an issue.
