Don't get on tmob as the phone doesn't have the teflon backing.

I'd read that only the white sim-free Hero had teflon and that all the others didn't. Where did you find out that t-mob doesn't have it?

lol, the Teflon coating give the phone it's anti fingerprint and smudging feature so that you don't always find yourself giving the screen a wipe.

As far as I'm aware the teflon is on the back, not on the screen. The screen has a special coating though, it's designed to repel oil and make it very easy to wipe clean. Anyone with an older touch screen mobile will know that wiping the screen usually just moves the grease rather than cleaning it .

CPW is offering the w995 for 25 a month. 600 mins unlimted texts on O2. not sure about net bit but if you find out can you let me know.

I'mm thinking about it but have seen the world of free gifts and now trying to decide between w595 + gift or the W995

Just a little point to add regarding the Teflon coating on the HTC Hero - it is only on the white version. The other colours are just regular (well, rather nice) matte plastic. I think the Teflon coating helps keep the white casing pristinely white

That was initially, the limited edition graphite has a teflon backing too, and the phone remains surprisingly cool. Theres loads of support too asandroid os is open source!

What is the HTC Touch Pro2 like in terms of additional software? Can I for example get Turn by Turn GPS software, like TomTom or Garmin on the Touch Pro 2?

Also, the same question for the HTC Hero? What is additional software like for the Android OS and can I also get Turn by Turn GPS on Android?

Also, is online community support (3rd party developement) good for the above 2?

TP2 is a windows mobile phone so there are 1000's of aps etc out there for free. The online community for Winmo is amazing, the real reason to own on especially a HTC.
Go to XDA developers to see what I mean.
