    I have had my HTC Touch HD for just one month.
    I am absolutely amazed how so much technology can be put into such a compact,
    user friendly phone.
    I normally use Nokia, but am really pleased that I made the change.
    I cannot find any faults with it,
    HTC have created the perfect phone/laptop7notebook and so much more.
