I emailed Easy Devices asking when they would have the HTC DESIRE HD USB SYNC CRADLE WITH 2ND BATTERY SLOT in stock. They replied below:

We do not as yet have a confirmed ETA on this - we are hoping in the
next 4-6 weeks, i.e. in time for Christmas.

Best regards,

Hmm I didn't get mine either, lost in the post I thought. I contacted them and they said they'd send out a new one... If the new one doesn't turn up I will let you know. Perhaps they overestimated with their availability date and are just playing for time?

 

[RussWWFC]

Seems strange, I guess we can claw back our money via Amazon if nowt turns up. The did send a confirmation of dispatch on the 19th to be fair to them.

I prefer the red one on eBay, they claimed to have sent that today so hopefully I'll get it tomorrow with my phone

Anyone know what the highest class/highest speed card the DHD will support? Class 10? x133? Faster?

Want to order one in the next day or so but struggling to find info.....

Hmmm. Looks interesting but it does say "* Best replacement for the original battery with comparable standby and talk time.". Now if it was really 1500mAh compared to the standard 1200 would they not claim more?
I think I'd be wary of these type of batteries until/unless someone had tried them.

I would avoid that at all costs to be honest.

It looks to be a Chinese knock off and a lot of that stuff tends to be knocked together cheaply. They know you can't easily pursue them if it knackers your handset and it costs peanuts to make stuff like that so they get high profit.

It's fair enough with cases etc. but batteries can be a funny thing to be honest and I'd probably not risk a 3rd party battery without a decent brand behind it. If it fries your DHD your warranty is useless.

Bought it ... but still waiting. Said it had been despatched last weekend but not seen it yet. I'll give it until the start of next week then start complaining!

As for 'is it any good', I'll let you know but I guess we're the pathfinders from this respect - with so few people having the phone as yet.

HTC Desire HD ACE Pouch -

Got this on the weekend, lovely case, fits a dream. However, there isn't a hole for the charger or headphones..unless that is, you put it in the case upside down. The little tab that pull up to access your phone is very cool though.

I think you are supposed to put it upside down (phone in)..but then I put the argument of how do you know of notifications to your phone?

Erm - don't all bluetooth headsets come with built in mics?

Hi,

The case that I'm using with my Desire HD is the one that was actually made for HD2, so called "HTC HD2 Pouch (HTC P/N PO S511)." HTC - Products - Accessory - PO S511
More info and review here: Original HTC HD2 Leather Flip Case - Dress up your device!
This case is (almost) a perfect case for the Desire HD too and it was listed as an optional accessorie inside a small leaflet that came with the phone. Nevertheless it is not a perfect fit. HD fits inside the case very tight, not a bad problem but the back of the case, where are the openings for camera lens and two LEDs, does not fit 100%. LEDs are hidden behind the back side of the case therefore you cannot use the Flashlight funtion etc. with this. But in any other way it's quite ok case. It keeps the phone slim enough and gives a decent protection.

Question: does anybody know if and when HTC are going to release a similar flip case that is designed from the ground up for the Desire HD?

Updated

Not released until the 3rd of December according to that page. It also appears to be a different design to the 400 which makes me think it may be more suited for the DHD being designed specially for it.

Looks better to me because this one doesn't do the car panel thing that the 400 does, so that suits my needs

This is a good retailer on amazon with original HTC products and lower prices than those on HTC's official store: FoneM8store @ Amazon.co.uk:
