What's your email address?
Dude my trust email is about 6 years old on an old ISP I don't use - just updated it (i hope) could you resend please?
Thanks muchly!
I'm gonna take them up on this I think, it's still gonna work out cheaper than cancelling and taking a new contract out with T-Mobile, will try one more time to get the handset price discounted but if not I'll pay up.

Just ordered a Hero, was deciding whether to get a SIM from Orange to use in my Nokia just incase there was any more decent android phones around the corner but I can't see anything on the horizon really.
Try Orange, I went to town on Monday, no stores had them out on display but they had them in the back, managed to have a play on one whilst the assistant was sat with me =/ not ideal but at least you can have a go!
Anyone know if any shops have these yet? Been into t-mobile, phones4u adn carphone just now and none of them have the hero

It's the paid applications with copy protection that do not seem to be appearing on the Hero's Marketplace for some reason.
There is a topic about it in the Market's help group but no response from a Google employee yet.
UPDATE: The email I just recieved from HTC blames Orange, possibly the modifications they have done to the firmware blocking it.

I think i read an official FB app is very close to release
I really like it, although I have never used the iphone. There are times when you click on something and you get "loading" but considering its just come out people shouldn't complain (the amount of updates the iphone has had
)The misses has the HTC touch HD and this thing blows it away, the touch screen is smooth and responsive and even though I struggle with the keyboard its spell checker sorts me out.
Am looking forward to more stuff coming out and its a phone that will get better with time
Best thing to do is try a 3g out in a shop. The hero is good but the iPhone has more choice of apps at the mo and quality apps in every area.
There us a lot of rubbish apps bit there's a lot of excellent apps too.
Android's Market isn't as mature.
The hero's CPU should have also been more powerful.
If the software you want on the hero is exactly what you want then go for that; for me at the moment the apps I use aren't as good on android.
Looks like I can actually get a better deal directly from orange.
24 months, £25 p/m 600 mins, unlim texts + 500mb data
Phone costs £97 but I'd rather pay that upfront rather than £50 and an extra £120 over the 24 months on the £30 p/m contract.

My Hero arrived from T-Mobile yesterday.... Its actually black, and not browny black like the offline one. It also doesnt look graphite to me, it looks like teflon. Or am I crazy?
T-Mobile do say on their site 'exclusive special black eddition'.
I have to say it feels VERY well built and actually heavy (in a good way). But I don't like the chin, so its samsung galaxy for me.
