HTC needs to capture the people who say "Well, I love the design of the Hero and it's easy to use (HTC Sense), and I like that it's free on 2-year contract, but I wish it had a keyboard." Most people will play with the phone a bit, see if they are comfortable with it, then see the bottom line $$$$. The bulk of today's smartphone customers won't care that it's an ARM11 under the hood. For those who do care, there will be the successor to the Hero. @OutstandingO.

I'm just saying that I hope they take a good long hard look at the design of this new phone and make it something worth having and not just try to piece something together.

The bottom line is the bottom line and there are people out there that want a HERO with a physical keyboard, but how many really??

If not the overall size would make the g1 look like a razor. Think about it. TP2 keyboard and then the Euro hero on top. Just doesn't look likely. Not in this form. I think this is photoshopped.

Give us something more along the lines of the touchpro 2 with the inerts of an android 2.1 device with a 1Ghx processor and just all around awesome. I'm just saying.

The CPU is just not acceptable anymore, no device, perhaps except for the very low end ones, should be released with this CPU anymore. Even at 528 MHz it is too slow, making multitasking difficult (playing an MP3 while geotracking? Don't think of doing anything else.) I agree with jason.

It was barely acceptable 6 months ago when the original hero hit. Now, it's just embarrassing. I don’t understand why people get excited about slowpoke arm11 junk like this.

I was told it was the next Mytouch, not a Hero... bound for Tmobile, with a new skinned UI. In any case, the phone I saw had a 4 row keyboard and an optical trackpad, and was AWESOME!
