Something strikes to my attention. A new design MID (Mobile Internet Device) featuring Intel ATOM processor. 47 buttons QWERTY keyboard, compact size of 180×80x20mm, ultra wide LCD screen touch with OLED technology, trackball, 7 configurable action buttons (accessible when phone is closed and opened), 2 USB slots, microphone and audio input, SD card reader, stereo speakers, docking connector and sexy sliding good looks.
What is cooked ROM?
The iPhone - you either love it or hate it, and as I've never been very good at making friends I openly admit that I hate it.Yes, it looks great, it's sexy and it has a lovely big screen to watch your videos on but with today's technology I'm not the only one that thinks the iPhone could, or even should, do a lot more.
The Omnia looks quite nice, and is packed full of all the great features that the iPhone lacks but it runs on the Windows Mobile 6.1 platform which unfortunately isn't renowned for great usability. Samsung have tried putting their own touchscreen interface on top of this but unfortunately they aren't renowned for great usability either and you end up using a combination of two not-as-good-as-the-iPhone interfaces. 
Killer
The Touch HD comes complete with WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth connectivity which traditionally are all very demanding on battery life. One of the most important features of the Touch HD is that it comes with a 1350mAh battery. I'm not going to pretend to know what that means, but I do know that this number is bigger than usual and, as a man, that impresses me. It turns out that as a result of this higher capacity battery the standby time on the HTC Touch HD is up to a total of680 hours. That translates into a total of 28 days. I can only assume that by 'standby' what HTC mean is 'find a 3G transmitter and put your phone next to it, turn all the features off and make sure nobody rings you for a month' but it is still an impressive figure compared to the standby time of up to 300 hours for the iPhone.
The battery allows for up to 480 minutes talk time on a standard 2G network, compared to that of up to 600 minutes talk time with the iPhone so for big talkers the Touch HD doesn't perform quite so well.
HTC Touch HD - iPhone Killer
Google Maps is provided out of the box and it looks great on the Touch HD's big and beautiful screen helping the navigationally challenged to get a bigger picture of where they are in relation to everything else. The HD Touch also provides push email and office applications so that on the rare occasion when you're on the train and want to do work you can edit your presentation or word document at the last minute and email it back to the office.
To top it all off Windows Mobile 6.1 supports the new version of the Opera internet browser which in turn supports the viewing of Flash files within web pages, although HTC haven't explicitly announced that the web browser will support flash so it's a 'maybe' in that box for now.
The HTC Touch HD also comes packed with exhilerating features like Text Message Forwarding, MMS Capability and Custom Ringtone Selection which could make it a true iPhone killer.
I can't wait to get hold of one and co-incidently pull it out the next time someone tells me they just bought an iPhone.
