I've tried searching for the 'net counter' app but I can't find it. Anyone got any ideas? or maybe something similar?

Right, I want to get this phone next month when I am eligible for my upgrade. Have a question about the wi-fi though - can you set the phone to automatically switch onto your wireless network if it is in range, or do you have to do this manually?

Does any device do this without human intervention?

Sorry I thought he meant if Wifi was switched off, will it switch on when near a wifi that it has access to.

Im sure there could be an app out there that would switch it on when gps sees you near your location

Even though mine's set to vibrate, it only vibrates on calls, not text messages. Is there anything in the settings to change this?

SMS pop up.

Sorted.

Combine with ChompSMS for an excellent combo.

Is it right the Hero has flash support?

I believe it has. Flash support as in can play Flash out of the box or as in it can once an update enables it?

Wikipedia HTC Hero page said:
It is also the first Android device to support Adobe Flash.

It says "Video supported formats MP4, 3GP" on the Magic page at HTC's UK site.

There is a media player app which will play mp4 off the memory card.

Can you copy Music straight from the CD Drive or does it have to be put in the Library of iTunes or WMP?
