Hey guys,

Any review on this phone. Seems pretty cool to me.

Function-wise, it's about the same as the other smartphones in the market. Afterall, the manufacturer is HTC.

However,what sets it apart is the OS which is being used. Immediate impact will be minimal, however the idea of open source code means the more people using this mobile, the more applications will be available as developers takes interest.

When buying the phone, do take note of the hardware or the software specs before you commit.

On a side note, the mobile phones in Japan are already using LCD tv engines to power their LCD screens. That's what really impresses me.
