HTC HD2

Is there a point where your mobile phones' screen size just becomes ridiculous ? Not for me...that's why im drooling over the recently announced HTC HD2.

Packing a processor that matched the first DELL I ever bought, a 1GHz Snapdragon and the usual connectivity options - 3G, 7.2MBPs HSDPA, GPRS, EDGE, WiFi, BT 2.1 and GPS, the specification that really stands out is the ginormous 4.3inch 480x800 WVGA screen.

Another new entry is the capacitive touchscreen. The first for a WinMo device. Capacitive meaning the touch interface is like the Samsung Omnia HD or the iPhone as in you use your fingers and not a stylus. A subtle hint that its WinMo 7 or Windows Phone ready...For multimedia, as slim as it is,(11mmx67mmx120.5mm) it still has a 3.5mm headphone jack and a 5MP camera with dual LED flash and autofocus. It also comes with an accelerometer and a proximity sensor.

With all this, what concerns me is the slightly low end 1230mAh battery. For such a huge screen, will the battery be sufficient? or die after 20 mins of using GPS? Also, HTC hasn't been the best with its built in camera's...How will this 5MP pan out? With the limited release set for end of the month, we'll just have to wait for the reviews.

In the meantime, have a look at the pictures and video :)

Summon for Eating while Driving

I think, just like phones, the cops should fine people who are caught eating while driving.

If it's just simple pop in your mouth snacks, then its fine..but as long as you require one hand to be holding the food, I think the cops should be able to stop you. I'm guilty of trying to eat a McD's burger while driving....nearly climbed the curb ! :P
