I love the xperia's sliding keyboard and high resolution screen, but the screen is 3", and the overall feeling is a bit more cramped (although otherwise quite lovely). Obviously there is no keyboard (other than virtual) on the HD, but it greatly reminds me of the x7500 with its clean tablet features - just need to add a BT keyboard, and look out! ;-) @harrydevries - that is such a lovely tablet; glad to hear that you still use yours! :-) @breley – I don’t see it as an answer to anything, other than maybe a way to appease people who want a larger and higher resolution screen.

It's quite obviously very different--most importantly, no keyboard! XD I've also read multiple times that HTC actually manufactures the Xperia, but I don't actually have any proof :P I've played with the xperia and I actually found it veryveryvery blocky and just uncomfortable to handle, which the touch hd doesn't seem to be (wish I could have played with that one too ;) ) That said, I am waiting very eagerly for the touch hd review! I've been very interested in it-- I was plannign to buy one, then I won an LG viewty--obviously made me rethink the point of buying a new phone... but the viewty is definitely no smart phone. :( breley — the amount of times I’ve seen a comment like that, it surprises me.
