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.

New Android 2.0 devices with high resolution screens like the Droid are much nicer. I've had VGA screen on my last few phones, no need to downgrade to HVGA.
That said, I will wait for Maemo phone without a keyboard .. it will be nice to know that I support the same technologies that I use on the desktop by buying a phone.

the way I see the Droid and ads, it is designed to appeal to those that were interested in Windows Mobile and the iPaq a while ago. I think the strategy is to get a lot of developers and serious apps for Android before thinking about the walmart and itunes market.
