The HTC Hero Android phone is now officially available across the United States on Sprint.

Exclusive to the Sprint network, the HTC Hero is a reworking of the European HTC Hero (also known as the T-Mobile G2 Touch), with a more rounded and chinless design.

    I have the G1 which from what I have been reading over the last month you can load the Hero rom onto the G1, I have not done this yet because I see there are some performance issues with it and dont feel like fooling with it right now cause I am sure I will just go back to the cupcake.

    i would really like to see the “sprint hero design” when the android devices are launched here in Brazil.

    this gadget is even more beautiful than the unlocked version.

    This is a GREAT smart phone however, there is one really big “BUT WAIT” everyone should be aware of. It does not play any websites with FLASH 10.1 very well if at all. I’ve searched all over for an update and still “NO JOY”

    So far So good,
    I can’t figure out how to delete things on the Screens though, NFL Live is on one of my screens twice at the top as a banner can’t get rid of one of them…

    A great article is as much about writing flair as it is about technicalities, but you have it all. It takes a great writer to have flair and and skill.
