I just saw this page:

and it looks like there are TILT clones for much cheaper prices.

I cant find anything about the CPU or the Radio version - I wonder if it's the same internally

the camera is only 1.3Meg - but it has dual sim, TV, and more features

what do you guys think?

A cheap copy at best

According to Dealextreme.com (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.12789):
"- OS Note: while the interface may resemble Windows Mobile,it appears to be a proprietory OS and not Windows Mobile."
"- MicroSD/TF memory card slot supports maximum 1GB memory"

On the other hand it does seem to have a dual sim an tv tuner (ntsc) both not available on the real thing + it's half the price of a Hermes....

I say: if you can afford it, go for the original HTC (either Hermes or Kaiser)

It also only supports gsm, NOT 3G. I do believe it was tri-band though... Its all over ebay, just do a search for mobile phone with tv...
Have a workmate who got one off ebay for $0.99 with $40 delivery to australia. NOT Windows os and pretty basic. Can be a proper mongrel to find what you want and still hasn't figured out how to turn the ringtone down to fog horn yet either (supposed to be set on lowest setting before off, YIPES!!!):eek:
Cheers...:D
