XDA Flint packs a punch (and an overnight bag)

UK’s O2 has just launched the XDA Flint – an out-of-the-ordinary Windows Mobile device that’s sure to catch your eye. Sure, we’ve seen it before in the HTC Advantage, but it’s worth singling out again.

[ad]

The XDA Flint has 16GB of flash storage, GGSM/GPRS/EDGE compatibility, WiFi, Bluetooth, dual cameras (3mp and VGA), video output, and an ATI graphics chip. It’s is driven by a 624 mhz processor with 256mb of ROM and 128mb of RAM. The XDA Flint is also GPS-enabled (reportedly through a SiRF StarIII chipset) dual speakers and, yes, a 3.5mm audio jack.

Even though it packs all that, it’s still only 4.5 x 3.9 x .06 inches and weighs only 13.2 ounces but in comparison to the HTC Touch Pro (4.02 x 2.01 x .71, 5.82 ounces), this thing is a beast!

HTC Touch HD on Orange UK has issues?

Orange Shop

There’s a strange story coming out of the British mobile scene about Orange UK’s sales people talking their customers out of upgrading to the HTC Touch HD of which they have obtained exclusive rights to in the British market.

Apparently there have been a slew of returns and complaints about this exclusive phone. A source over at msmobiles says:

Just tried to upgrade to the Touch HD and had the operator telling me about the high rate of returns. Apparently poor battery life, and that horrendous camera are putting people off them. The operator tried her hardest to put me off until I pointed out just how many Windows Mobile powered phones I have had (Windows Mobile 2002 and on). So not just returns but actively trying to encourage customers to not buy the orange UK exclusive.

Anyone here experiencing any problems?
What has Orange UK done to this phone? Or is the device flawed right from the gate?
