That was a really well presented and informative unboxing*. Great flow and thank you so much for using a tripod. Better than most of the unnamed "big" sites.
Sweet looking device with the exception (to me too) the keyboard. I'm curious to see how much pressure is needed to hit a key.
Again, nice job on the video and the site.

Nice video. The 16 GB storage is flash memory and not a microdrive as in the previous model.

Nice video Matt, but one thing struck me as important to point out. You said the Advantage must be used with either a wired or bluetooth headset for phone calls, because the Advantage did not have a built-in microphone. It's true you need a headset if you don't want your caller's voice to be heard by others around you, but it cetainly does have a built-in mic. So wherever you don't have privacy concerns, it's certainly possible to use as a (speaker) phone without any headset at all. I do it all the time with my 7501, as I've never liked using headsets of any kind. The mic is behind that little hole you see on the bottom left of the device (in landscape mode).

Actually sometimes I use my X7501 with just normal stereo headphones plugged in and use the device's mic. Before I bought a stereo BT headset, that was my normal setup (the included wired stereo headset wasn't very comfortable for me).

HI,
I do disagree about the keyboard. I have the HTC 7501 with the old style keyboard. I made the mistake one day of replying to a text message in a drizzle. Seemed like the unit was sealed. Unfortunately, the keyboard has never been the same since. The return key only functions every now and then.
If you plan to use the phone in the elements at all, the sealed keyboard is a great advantage.
My phones usually last 12 to 18 months. I've had the 7501 for ten months. When it goes, I'll definately replace it with a 7510. I love the phone that much.
I use the phone all the time with a Samsung USB 2.0 bluetooth headset. Tried lots of others, but the Samsung works flawlessly.06/05/08 @ 07:01

I would like to know how vueflo handles 3rd party applications. I understand it works well with opera browser, but does a 3rd party application need support for vueflo for it to work?
Does it play videos flawlessly?
Thanks for the brief preview. I am waiting for your full review as I plan to buy one.13/05/08 @ 15:23

With the keyboard attached to the unit, now that the dedicated keys for the soft keys, red & green phone buttons, etc... were replaced by the number keys in the new model, how is one able to activate them without touching the screen?

Are the keyboards interchangeable between the older X7500 and the new X7510?

It would be nice if you would be able to compare the older X7500 with the new X7510.

I must say I am a little disappointed here. I found this site while searching for info on the X7510 and was excited to find the unboxing video and the impending full review quoted as "being here soon". Since then, other sites have received pre-release versions of the X7510 and have posted reviews many weeks after your unboxing video.
