HTC Legend

[lonestar86]

Just got my Legend! It feels like a very solid phone.

Anyway, just to check, how do you guys protect it other than with a screen protector?

Is the Invisible Shield really worth it's price?

i've protected my screen with a glossy screen protector

i noticed whenever we unlock our phone, swype will start running. maybe that's the reason?

nope, even when I leave the phone lying on the bed for half a day, it drains to about 75% ~ 50% battery.. battery stays at 100% now when i leave it lying on the bed for half a day

anyone knows how come m1's price for the legend ($248 with the cheapest plan) is so much cheaper than singtel and starhub ($400 - $500 with similar plans)?

ya lah why? u sure its the 'cheap' plan?

Yep. It's the "cheap" plan.
I just got it yesterday.

But I think the stocks are running low, better call and check before going down.

Can this phone edit Microsoft Office Words?

but why singtel is selling at $418? selling at that price i felt that i've been cheated by 200. i would rather get a blackberry zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Beefsteak]

I got prompted for the update, updating now.

 

[porcu]

this is still Eclair 2.1?
Not Froyo 2.2.

I have rooted my Legend 2.1 to tether wirelessly so anyone knows if Froyo 2.2 for Legend supports wifi tether?

 

[Beefsteak]

yes, this is still 2.1

2 weeks? how come? yeah, the words in the dictionary were all gone. Lucky i didn't save many words. Stock kb on legend isn't very good i think.
