I dropped by my local att stores to see if they had heard anything about the inspire HD or the holiday. They told me they usually get email updates and such and haven't heard anything about them.
Though both stores told me they recently got an email about an upcoming HTC phone code named "super phone." I think its kind of a gay name; never the less, I couldn't find any leaked info on it.
Just though I would see if anyone else as heard about it or has found any information.
Maybe they are referring to the Sensation?

I doubt it since it is supposed to be released on ATT.

I don't think that is what they are talking about. I think that "superpower" they are talking about is in fact the Holiday, under the official name the Inspire HD.

That is what I am thinking as well. Unless they are pushing out a quad core (I highly doubt it since tablets are supposedly going quad core sometime next year), it wouldn't make sense to push two dual core phones out right about the same time.
Though they had no idea what the holiday or inspire hd was, but then again "most" sales rep's don't have any idea what they are talking about..

I agree entirely. Sales reps are generally kept out of the loop on new phones until release is emminent. I don't think quad cores will be ready until November or December, at the earliest, as that is when we see Ice Cream Sandwich start to roll out. Seeing as how ICS will blend gingerbread and honeycomb into one unified Android OS.

This actually wouldn't surprise me, seeing as the Inspire was pretty much a rebranded dhd.
But it would be nice to have a completely new offering, instead of a rehash.

Sold my Inspire not too long ago (I fell prey to the allure of the dual core Motorola Atrix).
Worst... decision... EVER!!!
Although it had the dual core it actually felt slower and more clunky overall than the Inspire. I was running GingerBlur which helped as it basically removed MotoBlur but itstill felt like a real step backwards. HDMI was kind of a novelty although I never used it. The only thing in Moto's favour was battery life. For me, I prefer quality over quantity .
Krisbo
If u read up on this matter, specifically other inspire owners doing the same thing, you would have an overwhelming amount of first hand accounts coming to the same conclusion... the atrix is a fail of a phone and its not worth it. Specs doesn't make the phone. It's the overall experience that does. Some people have to find out the hard way I guess. My advice... switch back to the inspire.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
I just re-read my post, forgot to mention that I received an Inspire in the mail today . As soon as it booted it up I was much happier than I ever was with the Atrix.

Lmao Look at their source, pocketnow, who were the first show those specs along with the HTC Lead as well. Seriously though, I like what I see about the Holiday. Glad I still get my upgrade in Dec, since I went off-contract for this phone to get rid of the p.o.s. Crapsung a777. When Dec comes, hello Holiday, or whatever they will call it when they "officially" announce it.

From the Sensation preview vid I saw, dual core, Official Sense 3.0 and GB
Holiday.
Though that nexus could be interesting. I don't know how much I like the idea of the separate menu buttons being made software-based, though. 5mp camera, though they say its "advanced 5mp" is still 5mp. Resolution of images will still be that of a 5mp camera, no matter how "advanced" it is otherwise.
Samsung = FAIL. Never again.
I was going for the Sensation over the GSII because I hate the physical home button. But with all the U.S. carriers likely having their own slightly tweaked version, it very well could be without it . In this case, I'm going with the GSII (I like the extra ram it has vs. the Sensation). If AT&T's version looks like the current version that everyone has, I'm going with the Sensation (an unlocked one from Canada or something - for use with AT&T's bands).

Oh, me too. If the op question had been "which of these phones are you going to dump your inspire for and pay off contract," I'd have answered just as you did.
By the time my full upgrade comes around, there'll be some new bomb-ass HTC phone on ATT. But this time, I have a phone that will keep me going until that upgrade comes...
Unlike the circumstances that brought me to this inspire...
Blew my upgrade on a captivate 2 months before the inspire came out.
I got an upgrade available in December, the day after Christmas. I'm watching for the HTC Holiday.
EDIT: Paid off-contract price for this on Feb 27th. This phone will definitely hold me over til my upgrade, and then hello Holiday!

Currently, the HTC Inspire is hands down the best phone ATT has on there list. If your an Apple Fan then the Iphone 4 is probably what you want.
But in all honesty, I would wait for the HTC Holiday to launch. Talked to an HTC rep the other day that said the phone would be available on the ATT Market by the end of the year at the latest.
I would wait for the HTC Holiday/Inspire HD
I would also wait for the htc holiday. However if i had to upgrade it would be the nexus s

I would get an Atrix. No offense to anyone in this section, but it runs better than my Inspire did.

I'm not getting anything else until there is a kick butt dual core processor option. In the mean time I'm content with the Inspire. Got it running sweet on all cylinders.
I would get nothing with a cheap plastic housing that is going to cost you twice as much as the Inspire to get. Get the Inspire or just wait. I would wait, unless you really need a phone now.

Hopefully they will be better than the Galaxy S was, though that might be setting the bar a bit too low.......
I would hang on and wait for the next gen phones due out later this year, maybe a dual core model.
Honestly, I would either wait for the iPhone 5 to hit the shelves (or wait for the masses of idiots waiting in line to buy one to move out), or wait for the Holiday to come out. Depends on which OS you prefer, but those would be top end for iOS and Android respectively

Guess this is the right place for it.
Yes the threads will be getting cleaned up. This weekend most likely if I can find the time. As for opinion threads if there is more then one thread on the same subject they will be combined. We have a off topic thread for things like this.

Love the Inspire 4g, but am ready for a upgrade without too much change. Make sense?
I've heard that the 4.7" HTC Runnymede (only name I've heard so far) could possibly be making its way to AT&T after being released in Europe for a few months first. Kinda like the same thing they did with the DesireHD before the Inspire came to the U.S.A.

My thoughts exactly
I just want an HTC phone with build quality like the Inspire, HD resolution, dual core and a decent sized battery. I love the specs on the Galaxy Nexus but I will never buy another Samsung product.
I heard a while back about an "Inspire HD". I think it was on Android Central. I've never seen anything else about it, though.
