HTC Touch HD Update
My Touch HD experiences so far are mostly good with a couple of bad.
The good:
- Phone book transfer to Bluetooth devices
- Discovered the photo zoom (circle gesture) feature (in and out)
- Bluetooth discovery of devices and reconnect is excellent
- Internet connection sharing - switches on by default - awesome
- Connection manager is very handy which appears on USB connect
- Vista ROM update possible (via WMDC)
- Multiple stocks on HTC Touch Flo (nice UI)
- USB, USB, USB (Makes charging so much easier as well as transfer)
- Bluetooth activesync is solid
The bad:
- Occasional few seconds delay (update below may fix)
- Phone call interface can cause redial
- When opening a text message the keyboard can fold away when you don’t want it to
- HTC Telstra ROM update is cognisant of ROM region (so cannot update)
- Minor: Quick GPS data reloads each week
- Minor: Sometimes it would be nice to get rotated keyboard (by a shimmy you can bring up keyboard in landscape from Opera Browser and quick shift to another application)
- Minor: TouchFlo has poor Calendering interface IMO
To-do:
- TomTom
On this update points there is an HTC update from the 12th thanks to Tarquin Swift for pointing this out to me. Here is the link:

Please note (as I didn’t) that the update requires it be run on the device and not on the PC.
