It's an HTC 5800. From what I understand it's the S730 but they renamed it or something for Solo Mobile in Canada.

I saw someones device information and mine didn't match up. Most notably the CPU is a QUALCOMM(R) 7500, rather then a 7200 as I saw posted.

Could anyone give me a little more information on this? I'm new to smartphones and would love to get into them a bit more. Plus, if I were to ever flash the firmware or whatever, I would really need to know what model phone I have.

They seems to have the exact same hardware. Slightly different software loaded onto Windows Mobile.

Could I use firmware from this board and apply it to my phone? This is my major concern.

you guys got the HTC S720, here in Canada it's on a network that is CDMA only and they disabled file transfer thru bluetooth, a2dp (sp?) etc....

slightly different design than the s730 it is very closely related
