25If you remember back in December, there was the T-Mobile HTC leaked roadmap, and on that list was the HTC Tera, which was slated for an April release. Well, it looks like they’re behind schedule, because now rumor has it that it will be a Q3 2010 release and will only have Windows Mobile 6.5 on it. Its rumored to have a 3″ WQVGA resistive touchscreen, dualband HSPA, WiFi b/g, Bluetooth 2.1+EDR and GPS/aGPS. It’s based on Qualcomm’s 600MHz MSM7227 chipset with 512MB of ROM and 256MB of RAM, and measures 115 x 53 x 15.5 mm. So it is definitely smaller than the Touch Pro 2 and also no Snapdragon processor. So, with Windows Phone 7 just around the corner, would you buy this phone? We’re thinking most people will wait for Windows Phone 7 to ship.

13First we heard rumors that the HD2 would be upgradeable to Windows Phone 7, there was even a picture of it (which was determined to be fake). Now we’re hearing that it is not possible to upgrade it because it lacks the three button requirement for WP7. Its not that it lacks the three buttons, it actually has five buttons. They’re also saying it lacks other hardware requirements, but haven’t said what those requirements actually are. They should release some of the hardware requirements later this month at MIX10 Developer’s Conference, so hopefully we’ll have a definite answer by then.

5For you HTC HD2 owners out there, there’s been much debate on the Windows Phone 7 upgrade options. The hardware should be able to run it just fine, but will there be an upgrade option available? We’ve heard yes and no, but nothing official from HTC or Microsoft. Now you can voice your opinion in an online petition.

20Our forum user TMartin has pulled the cab from the T-Mobile HD2 ROM for Slacker Radio.
It should work good on WVGA devices, but please report back how it works on other resolutions (VGA, QVGA, etc).
Also, Slacker is an internet radio service, available in the US and Canada, so we are not sure if users from …
