Orbit 2 is NOT launching tomorrow

[boz]

Well I must like girly devices!
I remember from previous posts you were after an Exec replacement, still found nothing to your liking then?

[Mr X]

Not really, I really do miss the Exec

Im using the TyTn II for the time being but the keyboards not up to the Execs and for my slim device these days I'm very happy with the iPhone so the Orbit has gone to the Mrs. Checked out the Orbit2 just in case the lust factor got me but alas it's the "Exec2" that my heart desires

The HTC Omni is still supposed to be out there somewhere!

[Mr X]

Yes true but its not exactly "Omni-present"!

It's the button panel on the front. With the Touch, Kaiser, even the Trinity, I'd expect them to survive a little tumble as they feel robust. I don't think the Orbit2 does. Just about to unpack it now (long weekend) and get a good look at it!

I would like to know what you think Dave compared to the Touch and Kaiser (for speed).

I'll let you know comparitively tomorrow about the Touch mate, but to be honest its been a while since I used the Kaiser in anger. I remember I thought it slower than I expected but can't remember details.

I'd be interested in how you compare it to the Touch being as the interfaces are similar.

Well, the Orbit 2 may or may not have launched to consumers, depending on which sales person you speak to at any given time but Expansys have just confirmed that they have received their first delivery of the HTC Touch Cruise and, as of this evening, still have 430 in stock after fulfilling the advanced orders (including mine!).
