So happy with my new toy!

My iPhone has about had it. It still worked, but not with Bluetooth, or WiFi, and the main radio wasn't exactly 100% reliable anymore. I have turned quite angry with Apple since I originally started on iPhones, mostly because of their "We say so" attitude. I'm not allowed to use my device to do everything it's able to do.

I now have an HTC EVo 4G. Finally, I can use OGG/Vorbis files again, like I've tried to do from the start. I still say my old iRiver E10 was a better music player than my iPhone was. I can do anything I want to it with Linux without having to use a commercial application anywhere. To me that's as important as any cool hardware feature, which this thing isn't lacking in. It also has an access point built in. No more relying completely on my apartment complexes iffy resident shared WiFi.

This things like Linux in my pocket (technically it is) - complete with a well stocked APT repository. I love it!

This thing is nice, it has a kickstand which I like, however very few of the applications work in horizontal mode. The "desktop clock" applet should at least work in horizontal. Probably comes with OS updates.
