I'm reading about HTCs 2010 release, and might wait around for this: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/08/htc-bravo-pictured-more-lucidly/">http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/08/htc-bravo-pictured-more-lucidly/</a><br>
Newer versions of Android will almost certainly feature better Outlook integration, especially now microsoft have opened their PST format for direct access without proprietary APIs.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2009/12/8 Cat Clarkson <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:envengcat@googlemail.com">envengcat@googlemail.com</a>></span><br>

<br>Hero has compass and gps built in - negative points about HTC - they're a bit funny about their updates because of SenseUI - they're skipping android 1.6 and 2.0 (?) and going for a 2.1 (i think?) update which is a tiny winsy bit annoying.<br>
<br>Build quality is great.<br><br>Outlook email and calendar integration on HTC hero is fantastic - however I think it's an HTC thing not an android thing, although potentially newer android versions may have great support too - i don't know a huge amount about that.<br>
<br>If you ever want to have a little fiddle and play with a hero feel free to drop me a line off list and if you're around uni a bit you can give it a go.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div><div></div><div class="h5">

I'm prepared to wait until one fitting my needs comes out, but are there any on the market at the moment that have a GPS and compass built in?<br>
Has anyone got an android phone? What one would you recommend?<br>
Or is it worth waiting for the next "big thing", (HTC Hero +1?)<br clear="all"><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br>"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?'
