Is usb-host function included? Is possible to use this function to connect a pen drive?

USB host is not provided on the Trinity. Some reviews claim the chipsets included are capable of it, but the function was not activated :-(

Almost like buying a car that has V12 but you only get V6 activated... :-))))

Missing functions: GPS, Radio, USB host...

Nice :D
HTC would say: "This is our marketing strategy, after a couple of months we start selling the Trinity Pro Advanced Plus which has GPS and USB host. FM radio available soon. So get rid of your old fashioned Trinity and buy our latest model"
:) :)

So does this mean that a software upgrade that will activate these functions is unlikely? Does one have to buy a brand new device?

Sorry for the confusion, I was only joking about HTC releasing hardware without proper software enabling all the capabilities of the hardware.

HTC will most likely - if they get it working - provide a ROM update enabling GPS functionality.

Nothing known yet wether USB host will wordk or not in the next ROM update.

There is no FM radio chip inside the Trinity so this can't be fixed with a ROM update.
