Sorry Michael but you are speaking bollocks.
The HTC Touch HD with a HSDPA data contract that I have been using for almost 10 month now is still one of the best handsets on the (european) market.
I have got a custom ROM from one of the XDA wizards on my Touch HD and it really rocks.
I am not a Iphone hater, but I just really enjoy my Windows Mobile phone. Yes, there are still some of us fools around. Just browse on XDA-Dev. some time.
Greetz from Europe,

My only issue with the Touch HD is that it was never available in the US with US 3G bands. That’s a huge miss for HTC, and one that many Americans are very upset to this day about.
I’ve spent lots of time at XDA, and I have to admit that without XDA, I wouldn’t have stuck with Windows Mobile as long as I did…

Hi Bill,
In response to your comment about XDA.
I want to take it one or two steps further.
If HTC hadn’t gone from solely a hardware maker to a hard- and software maker (touchflo and manilla for example)and without the enthousiasts at XDA, Microsoft would not exist anymore in the smartphone market.
HTC and XDA saved MS in a very big way.
I wouldn’t be on WinMo if it wasn’t for HTC and XDA.
BTW: my latest ROM on my Touch HD came from HTCPedia.com. Have a look there.
