Pls help in Purchase

[morphosin]

Hi folks...

I have been a part of this forum for years now... I started with the Himalaya and moved on until the universal... Last year i gave up my universal and now am lookin forward to comin back to the WM platform. Unfortunately, there are not many options in the US it seems. I was considering buying a Herald (T-Mobile WING). Does anybody wanna guide me by comparing the stability of the ROMS and the hardware quality between a Universal and a HERALD??

Is it worth the money??

Thanks alot.

Regards,
KT:)

well, a ROM is a ROM, is it not? It really depends on the skill of the creator. We only have two main chefs, PDAVIET and Itje, and only Itje regularly releases new roms. We're all waiting for his touchit v2 for the wing, which we all expect to filled to the brim with kaiser converted goodness. He's already released it for the herald. Heralds and Wings have different hardware keyboards and, as i understand it, not much else.

Hardware wise, the Wing is quite a solid phone. There have been battery life issues, but thats an issue with all WM phones. Other that, there have been no serious problems. The processor IS a bit slow, but we all overclock to 247 or 273 mhz, so it doesn't really matter.

Aesthetically, the wing/herald is much sexier than the Universal. It's actually quite thin, and I believe was one of HTC's first phones designed for for both aesthetic appeal and functionality.

Anybody in the US willing to sell their Herald? Pls do let me know..

Understandably I am not looking for a defective\ torn up piece... Its just that if somebody thinkin of upgrading or switching from WM platform and wants to sell his/her Herald.

For a safe and easy transaction we could conduct it through eBay. Thanks
