Hmm I wonder if companies like Tomtom will port their programs across?

If not then I will be sticking to a Windows based smart phone.

HTC certainly make some nice handsets, I am looking forward to see what by third HTC phone will be availble when my upgrade is due in the next few months..

wow it actually looks like a great phone after watching that !

the thing that worries me is that they say its an open source phone so developers can change stuff on it etc... so what they going to do? make loads of hacks for the phone like unlocking it from T-Mobile so it can be use don all networks some kind of way to get free internet from t-mobile without paying.

Infact why am i worried, thats great lol

If it's anything like the windows based smartphones then people like XDA developers http://www.xda-developers.com/ will do most legit things.
