ahh i hope this is right, makes the scrifice worth it :)
It's not often the postman brings me a lilac coloured Pocket PC wink.gif It's not often I get excited about the arrival of a lilac coloured Pocket PC either, but in the case of the new HTC / Ted Baker Needle, the excitement was more around the unknown than any hot new features or specs.
So here it is... and it has some surprises in store!
The Ted Baker Needle is a HTC Touch variant - exclusive to Carphone Warehouse in the UK - and is a result of HTC / CPW's partnership with Ted Baker, a UK clothing brand.
Over and above the standard HTC Touch specs (200MHZ TI OMAP, 2 MP camera, TouchFlo etc. etc.), the Needle brings:
* Customised branded startup and home screens
* A different keypad design (which matches that of the 'O2 XDA Nova' in Germany)
* An actually-not-too-bad-in-the-flesh lilac colouring
* Ted Baker external branding
* 256 MB ROM / 128MB RAM
* An updated ROM build featuring HTC's new 12 / 20 key software keypads

I dig it. Its a great phone and a nice color, plus its great because you know its a phone that not too many people have. I personally hate when everyone has the same phone as me.
People think the phone or phone user is gay because of the color? Thats the trashiest thing I have ever heard. The color is nice and the phone is great. Let's have a little security in ones lives, ok?
Its no different from the Prada, Armani or B-Phone.

just picked it up, i hate the color :( so ill be lookin for a case asap, also the buttons are different, so id imagine a replacement case is outta the question, the rom layout is absolutely terrible, the internal keyboard takes up 80% of the screen, and is just nasty

Believe it or not, I actually sold my white elfin (noone thinks THAT ONE is gay?) to get the ted baker needle and I love it. I just love it.
Call me gay anytime, I don't give a tiny little rat's @ss. Lilac anytime over white. I would've preferred silver like the ipods, but lilac is very nice too. I used to have the plain jane black elf, and I saw the other one too (kinda dark gold) and I think lilac is for me. One thing though, the white elfin has some kind of special enamel on it that makes it both shiny and slippery, and more resistant to cracks, and that would have been nice to have that in lilac because a lot of them get cracks on the upper left top corner.
