HTC Tytn minus UMTS/3G, minus front camera, 17mm tick: Welcome HTC Herald. Polish PDA Club has a review with nice photos, for a warmup. Enjoy.

It looks nice but has that idiotic usb/audio combine connector on the bottom.

It really sounds like the just-announced Cingular 8525 which everybody consider as a modified TyTn: front camera is gone... are we sure it isn't the 8525?

no its not, we have the Cingular 8525 in Singapore n its Dopod 838pro whereas the HTC Herald is Dopod C800

Note, that TyTN's (and 8525) keyboard slides out from the left, but Herald's from the right.

HTC will introduce it as the P4350, according to Mobile Review.

Looks like it's got a 200mhz processor...so is it going to be slower than the Tytn?

It is spring hinge not the old normal lousy hinge

Its got a similar processor to the Prophet. Even though the Prophet has a slower processor than the Magician, it runs much faster. I own both and speak from personal knowledge.

The TyTn and the Herald are completely different under the hood(or bonnet depending on your side of the pond). Slower processor does not equate to slower performance. Taking into account everything the TyTn is running, this may be a case of a Mustang(TyTn) vs. a crotch rocket(Herald).

Could someone move this Forum from "Upcoming" ? I DO have it in my hand right now ;-)
