Well, this time HTC made a smart move. They have coated the phone with Teflon and treated the glass surface so as to reduce fingerprints and etc to the minimum.
According to Gizmodo, after touching the HTC Hero, the Apple iPhone feels like junk. They describe the feeling of touching the HTC Hero, “It feels and looks like a white thermal tile out of NASA’s shuttle”.When can we get a hold of it!!?
