HTC has revealed some details about the much rumored Hero through its own official website. Engadget has performed some URL trickery that has managed to uncover many details that confirm the previous rumors.
Hero possesses the new HTC Sense widget-based interface that displays bite sized information on the home screen. A new Scenes profile feature enables users to switch their phones’ focus from business to weekend mode. When users view their contacts, a method to contact them is displayed. Additionally, interactions users have had with their contacts in email as well as social networking updates like status and photos are also displayed. The phone possesses a dedicated search button that searches the phone as well as various services like Twitter.
The HTC Hero seems to be like Palm Pre as it appears to completely integrate users’ local data with all their subscribed social media sites.
