I don’t understand the negativity towards the keyboard. I wasn’t even remotely interested in it as a touchscreen – just buy an iPhone if I could get past the fake keyboard.

But with the real keyboard it would be at the very top of my list. I have a Blackberry now and the only thing I really don’t like about it is the lack of a bigger keyboard like I had with my Sidekick.

actually, I think it combines the best of both worlds. the only problem with the iphone is the lack of QWERTY. the dream looks in fact like a dream…

I’ll take one. Stop looking at the phone and look at the specs.

He should have breathed away from the mic, just like that “chocolate rain” guy… =p

I like the white – classic google – but I hope they ditch the qwerty keyboard as is – maybe if it slid down for a pearl-like format instead of to the side? I say ditch the keyboard entirely, but idk if google is going for something that high tech

Damn! I thought I was the only one who thought that was funny.

not really bad. but i didn’t hope for it to be the Android either. it should be better than that.

You guy’s think this will be new phone for T-mobile or all carriers? I wonder when is it coming out exactly. I want to get new Iphone but then I don’t want to lose opportunity with Android.

I hope it’s just an ugly large prototype.

This looks like the one a Google engineer showed me at the airport. I liked the form and the interface.

Looks real for sure. The nice thing is the sliding qwerty keyboard. This will give iphone a run for its money.

what I noticed is the slow response from the touch screen, reminds me of MDA and Wing. So not interested

It’s…it’s…it’s…oh my god!!! It’s most likely some new sidekick!!!

There’s no way in hell this thing is an Android phone.

I am so underwhelmed I have to take a dump.

It looks like a reference design. Either way, I don’t think a phone should be THAT big. There are smaller devices that run Vista.

That breathing is sooo funny!!!…anyways, I dont really like the design of it. Looks like its on steroids

This jives with the form factor/specs from the htc site:
The device itself, which measures about 3 x 5-inches, sports a touchscreen, navigational controls at the base, and a full swivel out keyboard.

I hate god-damn mouth breathers. And while I’m feeling aggravated – I also harbor a strong distaste for videos of touch screens where there are 3 or four mis-touches to get something simple to happen. Doesn’t bode well for the device, or the user.

I’m with everyone else who hopes this isn’t the “Dream”.

Well i’ll cross the Dream off my list too. Hopefully the X1 wont dissapoint me as well

Looks OK. The keyboard looked a little to SideKick-like though.

Personally I thought the video is very poor. The person who posted this should learn to work a video camera first and focus. Make sure you watch the video before posting. With all the hype over the net, I will believe it when I see it. There have been too many times rumors are posted then the product is delayed.

you guys are all wrong… this is actually the HTC P.O.S

I’m very disappointed if this is the real deal.

Whats with the “Rasputia” breathing? I’m siding with “Gauntlet”.

This think looks like a Sidekick Slide on steroids, LX edition. I dunno…
