It is smaller and a little more refined than the TyTN's and does an excellent job at navigating.
Check it out..........
besides being smaller, it's more "rounded" in comparison to the tytn, so it feels much smaller in the hand/pocket.
i think the coolest thing in the open/close system, that has changed and is not the same comparing to the tytn/wizard. it feels rock solid.

yep, i did
i only played with it for a few minutes. i think i "bend" thingie is more solid than i thought it would be. besides that, i liked the positioning of the sim card slot. easier to access than the tytn. no need to get the battery out.

Where is the sim slot located then; like the microSD slot on the Hermes?
I will most definately go for this when it is available. The memory and the internal GPS antenna is the key for me.
When it'll arrives in the stores?

One of the rags indicate it will be released in August of 07. I have not seen an official announcement though.
There was a guy selling one not too far from me. I could have bought it but declined as I the only really desire pushing me was the one to have something as soon as it's out, (which isn't always the best ). He sold it Ebay for £390 which isn't too bad considering it's not out yet. I think the August date should be fairly accurate.

the sim is located on the sliding part. when you slide out to reveal the keyboard, it's behind the screen
the card slot is located on the sliding part as well, at the bottom of the device.

I saw one that said August. Frankly, I never believe any of them. When it comes, I will buy it (unless we start hearing some nighmare stories about it).
Anyone has any idea if T-Mobile is going to release it own branded HTC Kaiser (as MDA Vario III - for example)? My contract is going to finish around December/January, so I'd be happy to get an upgrade as xmas/new year gift.

Hey Guys,
Just thought i would ask, Has anyone tested the new manilla3d on Hermes??
They have it running on kaiser!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2758694&postcount=240
I'm waiting for my replacement in the mail soon and can't wait to start cooking this into roms and tearing it apart.
"For those of you continuing to try to use the Omnia D3D driver.. it will never work. Omnia driver is software D3D while TF3D uses OpenGL that supports ATI hardware and ATI texture decompression."
stopping tests now, wouldn't have any success until i get working drivers

Currently testing kaiser drivers
Here is a 20755 rom With the HTC kaiser drivers, Manilla3d, and the ddi.dll driver : HERE
I haven't been able to test these roms yet as my phone is dead and being replaced.
The goal of this is to see how the 3d drivers affect the hermes rom preformance and also to see if we are able to get this manilla3d interface working. as the above manilla3d thread and kaiser drivers become updated i will update this thread also.

Edit you will need to install D3d drivers i think, someone have a cab for that??

The Hermes has fine D3D Drivers as far as I can tell, or you can use the Samsung software one if you want.
It doesnt help much, never really tested it though.

yep, was sorta expecting that, you need to disable all today plugin also like suggested
As far as I can tell its a nogo.
It wont boot, its stuck at tab here to launch touchflow 3D.
Then it looks between that and launching.
Same thing happens with and without the software drivers.

Yup, that's right. This battery should pop up next month.
Translated to English..
With a bigger and more powerful battery you get more from your smartphone. The larger battery also requires a new back.
• Increases battery capacity by 20 percent
• Only 8 grams heavier and 1.2 mm thick, but with much more power

I'm looking for a new battery for my HTC Desire but not sure which one to get.
Could someone please post some suggestions?
Got £5 in my paypal so that's my limit really don't really want an expensive battery.
Cheers
£5?!
that's barely enough to cover the shipping costs ^^ add 5 to 10 more and then we can talk.
Yeah, used oem battery will probably perform better than new £5 pos.

Read this, it's a thread for that. That 94% is fake and you'll see why. After calibration I got 83% of real battery age.

You have a link there to nexus one thread and the process is the same, even eaiser with AOSP rom cause every kernel is calibration friendly. Only difference is that you have to use stock battery calibrator app (for N1) not the one from the thread. I tried to do itbseveral times with sense rom and didn't manage to do it. At the end I flashed cm7 and did it. Just read the thread carefully and follow the steps exactly as posted, it's very important.

Dear Buddy, Regard on your question, i think the most simple way is you find a repaire shop around your house, the repaire shop owner must be know the battery you need. so you don't need ask others else.:silly:

i know what battery i need just not sure which one to get, some dont last very long need someone who has bought one of ebay or amazon before
if you really want a new battery, i'd say get an htc original one..My experiences with cheap replacement batteries weren't all that great..
i recently bought a new battery made by hama. stumbled across it when i was looking for a new headset. it performs really good so far even though it only has a capacity of 1270 mAh (still lasts for a good 5 hours of non-stop usage). it was rather cheap, cost me 13,99€ if i remember correctly.
