HTC Touch HD in Dubai, UAE?

My first opinion of the HTC Touch HD (high definition) was that it is an iPhone clone. With a big display like the iPhone I thought it was one of the many followers. But it was good to finally have a serious look at the Touch HD. Like top of the line HTC devices, the Touch HD boasts of decent processor and memory. It has fast 3G and the latest WM 6.1, the bigger screen is a welcome relief from tiny screens from earlier HTC models. The XDA II and the XDA Universal (imate Jasjar) had good screen sizes but that was like a decade ago! A cool 5 megapixel camera is like a icing on the cake.
