So I got an HTC One S

I have had my new phone for a week now.over all it is really nice. The hardware is really good, I love the feel of it.

Having the bigger screen is great, it is super clear and bright compared to my old nexus one.

On the software side it is a bit of a learning curve coming from Cyanogenmod 7 to sense 4. Sense isn't bad, but I'm used to the more open nature of CM. My brother had the nexus S, android 4 is really nice and I want something close to that. I also feel that sense of slowing the phone down, the animations are nice but I always prefer function over form.

Once there is an official Cyanogenmod port for the One S I will install it, this phone is a bit new for that yet. I really like that HTC makes unlocking the bootloader quite easy. Just go to www.HTCdev.com and follow the instructions.

I also just got the Swype beta, out is absolutely awesome. It makes typing on my phone fast and easy, I have typed this whole post on my phone, I would never have done this with the standard keyboard.when Swype comes out of beta I will buy it. The link below will take you to the Swype website, follow the instructions to install it.
