You can the hack the phone and put various ROMs on it. Best aim app so far is Beejive, it's in beta form and it's free. http://forum.xda-developers.com/ is the mine site I use.Originally Posted by Emmanuel Goldstein

HTC Leo Now Speculated as Athena Replacement, Athena2

There have been so many identities for the leaked and rumored HTC Leo that it's beginning a lot more difficult to manage. The blogosphere is now stating that the Leo is in fact a replacement for the HTC Athena, a device that blurs the line between smartphone and mobile internet device (MID). While the Athena has phone features and data access for wireless connectivity, it's larger size accommodated a larger screen in its day with a detachable magnetic keyboard, making it a nice internet tablet.
The replacement for the Athena was documented in the HTC 2009 leak as the HTC Toth. The lineup features the Toth as a 1 GHz device with larger than 4-inch display, a screen size that is larger than even the Toshiba TG01's display.
Here are some rumored specs:
-Manilla 2.5
-WVGA/16:9 Screen/4.3"
-Snapdragon/1GHz
-8MP Camera--NEW (up from 5MP?)
-WM6.5
-320mb/512mb RAM/ROM
Perhaps this is the Athena2? Given that the Athena wasn't really officially announced for the US market, we'll have to wait and see if this device makes it stateside being subsidized by any of the big four carriers.

Get the TP2. The MyTouch is for chicks if you ask me. I dont even use it. Microsoft is gonna open an app store in the fall so you can download more apps on the go. Plus its much easier to manage Microsoft Office files if you need to look at some things from school while your out and about. If anything, you definitely need a keyboard if your gonna do anything with school. TP2 > G1 > Dash 3G > MyTouch 3G my suggestion for you.
Yea thats the only thing thats making me worriedOriginally Posted by Mastamind89
DOEBOI would you mind not having a keyboard?

HTC Hero Sense UI Ported to Windows Mobile

They sure do work quickly at XDA-developers, don't they? Zenulator (with help from vilord), from XDA, has ported the Android powered HTC Sense UI to the HTC Vogue (Touch). Despite the older specs of the Vogue, it's supposed to run quite well. He claims that his latest Hero build is as close to the real Hero as you'll get at the moment, without having to go out and buy the actual device. The video below backs that statement up as you can clearly see it running smoothly on the HTC Tilt.
Apparently, they've managed to get data, audio, GPS, Flash, Market, Gmail and all the HTC apps & widgets to work so far. SMS and the camera are also partially working. "From first boot up, it goes right to the HTC setup. After that, it goes straight into the Sense UI. There's a bit of lag initially, but after everything gets settled down, it becomes quite usable."
Zenulator has been working on two different builds, the full Hero UI and one that he calls BackInBlack or the "minimal build." The latter is a stripped down version that is a lot faster while still utilizing Sense UI and HTC widgets. Currently he's concentrating on the minimal build because of its speed, but he will have the full build out shortly. So far it is reported that it works well on several devices. Check out the XDA-developer's thread to see the lively discussion or to attempt to port it to your device.
(Thanks for the video, enatefox!)
