Engadget did not mention it (but they are part of the apple PR).
Any official statement yet?

[Q] Will this work with T-Mo?

I've recently been debating a switch to Sprint so I could get an Evo. However, the Desire HD has stolen my, well, desire.

I'm wondering if this will work on T-Mo though. Here's what I got from the HD product page on htc.com:

* HSPA/WCDMA: 900/2100 MHz
* GSM: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz

According to wiki, T-mo "uses the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 1900 MHz frequency-band" and "1700/2100 MHz AWS Band for its 3G network."

So, forgive me for being a dumbass when it comes to network stuff. I see they match on 1900 GSM and 2100 HSPA. That means it'll work, right?

Also, HSPA+ isn't another band is it? I know the processor in the HD is HSPA+ capable.

Super excited about this phone. I just hope it'll work with my current service.

it will work. t-mobile work with HSDA 2100 only, the phone and all the 3g phones support it, so it will work fine, BTW, if you will go to tnt that work at 850/2100 HSDPA - then you will no always get full 3G.

Play.com is taking pre-orders for the Humble price of £459.99..Due for release on the 13th of October..

Unlike Expansys who are taking it for £499.99...

I always wondered does anyone still buy from Expansys any more. They thoroughly abuse their leading position, I think they are going to lose it (or have lost it already?) very soon.

Modaco is also selling it for a reasonably good price considering the extras.

The last time I bought a phone to Expansive, my Blackstone when it came to streets, they were selling it a bit cheaper than MRSP price and the same to the HD2...

But now, they are becoming a lot greedy and are selling phones at the same MRSP prices...

By the way, does anyone knows if there's going to be a page on the wiki for the best selling prices of the Desire HD??

According to a source, the specs of the device found in the official PDF in HTCLON it appears to be an LCD, while on the Desire Z they did mention it's SLCD.

Which website confirmed it's an SLCD?

 

[riz157]

Play.com £469.99 due to release 11th October. Bought sgs for £400 will have to get on contract, My contract is coming to end in Oct hopefully will be available to T-Mobile by then. I hate Vodafone, terrible customer services.
Anyone know which network will be getting it first?

 

[sub0min0us]

Yep. It is just an LCD instead of SLCD. You can easily notice this in some videos available in youtube. A let down imho.

EDIT: Ooops! This video says super LCD so SLCD? Let's wait and see.
