I have seen and used many different phones with a variety of mobile operating systems. I haven’t seen this exact phone yet, but I can tell you that the technical features and long history of stability with the strong promise of a great future, windows mobile is a good purchase for me personally. I like to know things are going to stay around for a while when I make a purchase and the features of windows mobile phones are more than most.

I believe I read somewhere that the Snap would be eligible for the 6.5 upgrade. If not, someone on HowardForums will figure out how to get 6.5 on there.

Excellent contribution, Nicole.

I for one will be considering a Snap for SERO renewal since the Pre is not eligible..I would wait around for the TP2 but it seems to have the same brick-like qualities of the Tilt/TP1.

It’d be nice if HTC would have make the Snap more akin to the Palm Centro…the length, girth and keyboard are on track but it needs to have a bigger screen with touch functionality. A 3.5mm jack doesn’t hurt either.

I’m hoping for a $99 price point.

Anyone know if the Snap will be WM 6.5 compatible..?

So it’s between Sprint/Palm’s last attempt for salvation (Palm Pre) or a Windows Mobile phone.. I’ll pass

Sprint should have kept the original HTC design!!

The screen is WAY too small. Pass!

It really depends what you use your phone for.

If you do a lot of texting and email, the Snap would be a better phone.

I’m using the iPhone right now and it’s cool for looking at photos and impressing the kids with tapping games but not much else

Good advice for noobs. Don’t get caught in the re-direct.

I don’t think noobs come here though.

I want to see what’s to that Ace II, if it looks like the Q9c clone Ozzy Osbourne is pimping

Moto Q lover here checking in and this thing is definitely right up my alley, but damn, no 3.5mm jack. I think I’ll probably still get this though. Maybe Touch Pro 2 but probably not.

What gives Telus usually is the first with htc devices. They got the Diamond, Touch Pro and even the P4000 (Mogul to Sprint users) way before anyone else.
