android - hero - love :)
running android cupcake on my HTC Hero - the first phone i ever bought!
people ask why i didn't get an iphone....all i can say is, i'm not an apple person, i need a phone that i can freely play with and modify, so android is all for me! not to mention that the Sense UI is by far the best implementation of android yet! with support for widgets and flash and what not! also has a teflon coating which feels and looks like a white thermal tile out of NASA's shuttle! haha played around with it for 3 days and i'm still in awe :-)
when i went to buy a screen protector for the Hero, when i showed them my phone they're like, "WHAT PHONE IS THAT?" XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
thanks to dave i got the phone before it's even for sale in Hong Kong =D

looks pretty good ! whadaya think of da interface, ryan?
我本身都想等呢一部,但係舊iphone真係壞到無得壞,於是決定換iphone 3gs
Where did u buy it from?
when i first saw your photos on my news feed, i did admire you. after i flipped through your hero album, i can't hide my jealousy.
i m using GOOGLE phone too!!! do u dl the skymap? its awesome!
Ed, i'm loving the Sense UI! still exploring!
Jansen, the real thing is even better!! haha
Hi DaBi, didn't download the skymap, but will try tonight....the thing is, it's difficult to see stars in HK at night!
uau, I thought it is G1
wahhhhhh so prettty!
I have been waiting to get the US version of this phone since it was announced. Reviews are saying that the the Sense UI is laggy, is it really that bad?
not laggy so far, but perhaps the reviews are comparing it with the iphone's touch which i heard is a tad bit smoother :)
the 1st phone you ever bought :P the previous ones are gifts then? haha
it looks small (as compared to the jeans pocket)... how's Chinese support? good?
yea...the last one was a nokia 6288 that my dad won in a lucky draw -_- haha
this is a UK version of the phone, so the interface is all in English, but can still display Chinese in SMS, browser, etc. =)
WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
hurry and have lunch..i need to see your PHONE (an insert a pic of me haha)
there's no need...the phone auto links your phone no. with your facebook profile and downloads your profile pic (and other details) for my use haha
=) i wanted to get this too!
really :DDD haha we are so garp :D
yesyes when are we meeting!!!
I couldn't resist and bought one from eBay just now. Non-US version though.
HAHA THAT'S FAST! don't worry you won't regret XD is it a UK version though? so you'll still be able to use it in the states, just not 3G speed, right?
and....welcome to the android world!!!! =D
(assuming you don't already have a G1....haha)
Right, but since I am in wifi covered area 90% of the time that is ok for me. The US version of the Hero will be a CDMA phone, so I am not really looking forward to it. The Canada version will be GSM and will have US-compatible 3G support, but it probably won't be released till the end of the year.
Cool!
haha you think so? mr iphone fan? :P
definitely looks sleeker and smarter than Magic the G2!
yea i totally gave up on the G2 after seeing the real thing in the 3 shops :P
I need hardware keyboard, so I will wait for Motorola Morrison or Sholes to replace my G1.
Thanks for commenting on my app list, I replied with alternative app to your additions.
whoa, coolness! when are we meeting up.......
oh.. u make me wanna want it!!
cool! I have been longing for this HTC Hero for sometimes....cool android
awesome SHOT
yes i love using my jeans as the background...lol
kenneoh, android is love! :D
is it good? read mixed comment about this particular build of android phone.
most of the reviews i read gave the hero thumbs up....but of course it all depends on your use. if you're happy with apple then i don't think you'll like android a lot..=p
how much??!
HK$53xx...
"WHAT PHONE IS THAT?"...so did you get the screen protector you asked for in the end?
no, after realizing that it's scratch-proof :)
u guys might be intrested ! iphone 3gs vs. htc hero http://bit.ly/8nrw1
HTC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
iPhone may have won the market now. Android will get it in the future.. Hail open source!
