There’s no large-capacity built-in storage so it has to come from a microSD card. The Li-Ion battery is also rated at 1230 mAh. Based on previous handset prices of HTC HD here in the Philippines, it won’t be a surprise if this unit sells for over Php50,000 when it lands here.

i already have this phone, but I’m having trouble with the internet settings of the phone.

I asked globe and sun, both of their tech people don’t know how to setup the phone. Really incredible..

50k is way over the top. The Omnia 2 16GB is selling around 28K many places. & the Omnia 2 has LED, not the older TFT technology. I doubt the HD2 will be over 30-35k if HTC gets their act together

I don’t think it will be priced as 50,000 pesos.. Maybe it will be a little lower.. Since I asked one HTC store here

Yes 50K is expensive but for me it is worth it since it makes my life a lot easier and a lot more fun. Definitely not for avereage users. Only for fanatics. I currently have the Touch HD but I’m going to buy this as soon as it hits the market!!!

I like the generous screen size. DLNA and 802.11n support will be nicer. But yeah, too expensive for me at least.
