It's pretty big, one of the biggest phones on the market (the only bigger one I can think of is the Dell Streak), but in terms of physical size, it's about the same as the Galaxy S2 (I think), because the beval is so small.
I also really like the look of the 'Sensation XL', but I've been looking up Windows Phone 7 videos for a few days now and I really like the way they work, it seems so intrigated and works well with how I use the phone.

I have a HTC HD7 which runs Windows Phone 7
I really really like it.
I like the tiles thing.
And I like the way it intergrates with everything else microsoft that I own, even down to xbox live.

whilst the integration is clever / sexeh etc...
it does worry you to some extent, no?

In what way?

the whole closed ecosystem thing

I'm not quite sure what you mean.
It's a phone and it does phone things with the added bonus of being well intergrated with my desktops laptops and xbox.
Personally I don't see any problem with it.

not in terms of your day to day usage
but it's the principle of being walled into a closed environment, like facebook etc.

I don't feel "walled" at all.

that's not the point.
not that I'm in "giving a shit" mode, but it's walled gardens like tesco that did for cornershops.

anyway. morning etc.

I really dont understand.
Are you taking a dig at microsoft?
If so, I fucking hate the cunts.
Point is though, I like my phone.
Which is what this converstation was about.

Oh sweet ! The HD7 looks wicked, that's the one I'd go for if there wasn't any newer WP7 phones.
Are you running Mango on it? It's got really deep facebook intrigation, which I use all the time. I'm looking forward to developing for it too.

Um, no idea if it's mango.
It's got what it came with.
I'll have a look when I have a moment.

Ahh, when it comes out, which I think is pretty soon, you'll get some amazing new features.

Cool, I'm assuming it'll be an auto update.

More than likely
