Stock Android rather than anything whizzy like on the Hero (boo!)

OLED display (yay!)

8 gig internal storage rather than crummy 150ish meg on HTC (yay!)

Its out midle of the month Hexeh, it didnt pass our accreditation at first, was supposed to land in stores last week but due to the problems held back. Its now passed and is out mid September

Wonder if anyone will port the Hero interface to other Android devices?

I'd quite like me an Andriod based phone, but O2 don't do the Hero

It's available - Haykuro is one of the chief Android community haxx0rs, so he's the guy to look for to obtain such things - but remember that the Hero's special sauce is all closed-source mumbo-jumbo, and using it on an unlicensed device is piracy.

looks alright

It looks very attractive and I look forward to trying one. However as far as contract prices go I am not going to buy one for the price O2 are asking for it. However, unlike a certain fruit-branded phone I believe the price will come down after some time (especially since O2's exclusive on the i7500 is only 4 weeks)
