Ok, so i have read a lot about the sluggishness of the kaiser and everyone saying that its crap.

Did HTC announce that there is no 3D acceleration hardware inside the Kaiser unlike the the Hermes with its ATI imageon chip.

If so what good are drivers if the hardware isnt there in the first place! or am I being dumb.

We don't know what HTC is doing. But there doing it wrong. They gonna loose many costemers cause of this. Hope there will be a fix in February/March.

And yes they said it does not support 3d. (While they said in a press release: They signed Qualcomm cause of the 3d support :P)

so drivers arent going to make a difference then are they?

But the Qualcomm chip apparently has 3D... and try scrolling and/or TomTom :(

yeah ive been reading up on this chipset, the qualcomm MSM7200, does this mean that the people on this forum brand these phones as "rubbish"

HTC Wings
Toshiba Portege G920
HTC P6550
HTC Omni
HTC Nike
HTC Poliaris
HTC Erato
HTC Siruis
LG KS20
Every variant of the HTC Kaiser?

Please add the HTC shift to this list since it too uses the MSM7200 chipset
