    Remainders - The Good, Bad and Ugly Things We Didn't Post (and Why)

    Abandon all hope, ye who enter Remainders. Today, we've got: Windows 7 needs less tech support than anyone expected, Acer's Olympic-themed laptop, Sprint's Android phones skipping Android 2.0, and a leaked Panasonic (non-Micro) Four Thirds camera. More »

    HTC Legend Creeps Out Again, Looks Even More Like The Hero Than We First Thought

    That HTC Legend handset from the leaked roadmap we saw the other week has just been given another airing in public, with the Hero-esque aesthetics and specs revealed. LED flash, anyone? More »

    Leaked Shots: Android 2.1 Running on HTC Hero

    We haven't heard from HTC after its promise to update the Hero to Android 2.0, but maybe that's because it's updating the Sense UI for Android 2.1 (expected by year's end) instead. Click to zoom in on the screens: More »

    Sprint's HTC Hero Takes Inevitable Price Dip to $100

    After the HTC Droid Eris, a rebadged Hero, debuted on Verizon for $100, Sprint's Hero couldn't well sit at $180 and expect to sell—and now Best Buy has stepped up, selling the Hero at $100 with contract. [Engadget]

    HTC Hero Among First To Get Android 2.0 Update

    According to HTC's Twitter feed, the no-longer-tragically-flawed HTC Hero is getting a sprucing up with an update to Android 2.0. Will the OS actually shine through this time, or is HTC's Sense UI gonna continue running the show? [Twitter]

    Heads up: Sprint's HTC Hero Now Available to All

    The CDMA Hero is now available to everyone, after first dibs went to Best Buy's Reward Zone (and those willing to deal with Sprint's telesales). Arguably the best U.S Android phone, it's $180 (after rebate; with 2-year contract). More »

    Archos 5 tablet models starts trickling out, Garmin's latest GPS is shipping, and best Buy rewards Zone members can get an HTC Hero on Sprint two days early. More »

    Verizon's HTC and Motorola Android Phones Caught Red Handed

    Verizon said this morning that it will drop two Android phones "within the next few weeks." And all signs point to these being them. That's likely an HTC Hero on the left and the Motorola Sholes on the right. Updated More »

    Sprint Hero Review: Faster, Stronger, Uglier

    Take the most daring Android phone yet, but make it faster, stronger and better (but blander). You have the Sprint take on the HTC Hero, which happens to be the best Android phone you can buy. More »

    HTC Hero Firmware Update Available Now, Fixes Terrible Sluggishness

    Would-be American Hero buyers, look at the bright side: Before Sprint's version even ships, HTC will have ironed out most of the problems with the original. Like the slowness! Which you can now murder, to death, with an update. More »

    HTC Hero Hits Sprint Oct. 11 With New Face, $180 Price Tag

    That Sprint's first Android phone's going to be the HTC Hero is about as unsurprising as news gets, but you know what is surprising? They've given it some invasive plastic surgery, and priced it squarely below their own Palm Pre. More »

    Android Hacking For The Masses

    Reasons to hack, or "root," your Android handset: Custom OS upgrades, PC tethering, full-phone SD backups. Reason not to: It's really scary. At least it was, until now. More »

    Software Update Fixes the HTC Hero's Only Real Problem

    Well, this changes things. Right after it came out, Matt called the HTC Hero "tragically flawed." Why? Because the otherwise fantastic Sense UI was slooooow. HTC, presumably run by competent, rational human beings, has fixed this. More »

    HTC Hero Coming To Sprint

    Earlier rumors suggested that the HTC Hero might be headed to Sprint in October. This appears to have been all but confirmed through this shot taken directly from the HTC support site. More »

    2009 Hasn't Been So Great for HTC (Wait, What?)

    By most measures, HTC looks like a company that should be cleaning up: they own the market for Android phones, the press watches their every move, and they've got popular handsets on nearly every carrier. So what's all this about? More »
  • #rumor

    Is Sprint Landing the HTC Hero In October?

    A printout-bearing gentleman claims that Sprint, or a carrier that looks an awful lot like Sprint, will get HTC's Hero by October 11th. Two rumors don't make a fact, but we've heard something like this before. [XDA via Engadget]
