Well for people who love Sense I think the new Qualcomm processor is more important than people are giving it credit, there's a LOT going on in Sense 3.0 from a graphical standpoint and that dual core/enhanced graphics silicon is what makes it silky smooth. If you're a straight AOSP person than HTC phones probably don't appeal to you much anyway, but honestly I can't see the sense (sorry) in buying
any single core phone at this point, why would you want to be stuck for the next year with a phone behind the curve of what developers are working with?
Thanks again Slag02 for posting your comments, I feel better about my Best Buy pre-order every day
