i would have been mad if they put a 1.2ghz processor on this. its only the r2d2 version. i understand the global having a 1.2ghz.

Still on D1…not switching. Not until they produce a root-able world phone, at least 1ghz processor (dual core TI cpu would be nice), at least 512 RAM, at least have a cam on front and back, at least 8mp on cam, at least 720p video, at least nice cam software (the dynamic lighting stuff on the iPhone would be nice…i know…i know…), probably a 4inch screen (I think that's the sweet spot), keyboard is a must have (in texas your fingers get sticky in the summer, which makes swype impossible, this goes double when riding in the car). If no root, I will ride this D1 to my own grave. People will be viewing it and me in the coffin. Sorry, but that's just the way it is you bonehead manufacturers. I care more about freedom than warranty all day long.

Without these specs, I'm not upgrading to jack donkey doo…period. Getting locked into lagfest motoblur looks about as enticing as drilling a hole through my head. And those apps look weak. I mean come on! I'm a Star Wars fan, but those apps look like crapola. Might as well make an app that spits bantha poo in my face for crying out loud!

I'm finding it hilarious that it's not sold out yet. Verizon really botched a great opportunity... slight upgrades to the D1 at best. Blur is a disaster. Long live HTC.

I already have every piece of this phone that's interesting loaded onto my DInc. The R2-D2 skin on the back is really poorly done, so I'm not too bummed about not having that either. The only parts of this phone that seem well done are the dock and the keyboard.

Holy wow that thing was laggy. I'm guessing that was probably because you just booted up and didn't give it time to finish loading everything though.

were those 3 extra apps in the system dump that leaked where all the live wallpapers were taken from? i want the trivia one!

but the hype is, if your a huge starwars fan and in the market for a new smartphone this is a pretty awesome buy. i have the dx, but if i didnt and wanted a keyboard, i would def. get this thing, its just damn cool to a star wars fan
