PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless PureMobile sent us in the GSM version of the HTC Hero, one of the most popular Android-based smartphones out there. There are already a number of in-depth reviews about this phone out there (here's one), but here's my own take on what I liked, and what I disliked.

Scary language situation

It almost sounds like the early days of Mac OS X when a lot of applications were not localised for Japanese, but the English would work its way onto the display in a later release.

HTC is probably right to replace the UI so that all of their phones work the same way, but knowing that Android is the base would make me want it to work the Android way. I remember a review of the UI over Windows Mobile said that it was sluggish to respond. I wonder about a comparison between the two.
